Because it must be greater or equal to both of these, it will never run anything below Automation and anything flagged as ReallyAutomation is denied.Īs of Seasons patch, the ReallyAutomation is now gone, and the toggle_selectable_pets cheat has been changed to the Automation category, implying they now know that Automation cheats are properly blocked. This is saying if its greater or equal to ReallyAutomation (2) AND greater or equal to Automation (3) then the cheat is allowed.
It shows they were toying with actually preventing automation cheats from being accessed by players. This prevented the toggle_selectable_pets cheat from working with testingcheats true. When pets showed up though, there was a new type of cheat category called “ReallyAutomation” as seen below. The circled line shows that if command_type (number) is greater than or equal to Automation (3) and cheats_enabled (testingcheats true) then it allows the command. This let players use many cheats that Maxis never intended for us to have. So before seasons, “Automation” category cheats (Like skill cheats) were accidentally grouped in with “Cheat” level and were enabled when you put testingcheats true. Debug cheats are only allowed when the game is started in a special debug mode, which normally only maxis would have.Automation was meant to only work in a maxis environment where a “bot” automates all player input for QA/testing purposes.Cheat is only allowed when testingcheats is turned on.Live has no restrictions and works as soon as you load up the game.When you enter a command, the category is checked and the code determines whether that cheat is allowed based on a few conditions. So to elaborate on my patreon post, Every cheat in the sims 4 code has a category it belongs to: Live, Cheat, Automation, Debug. The short of it is, I don’t think this change was a bug but rather an intentional “fix” to cheats we were never supposed to have. You can find the fix download and original post by SimsVIP below this.
I just wanted to add some additional information on what I found regarding the broken cheats. Hey Grant, any input on why it was changed? Are you rolling out new versions classified as Cheat types or will all automation cheats be re-enabled? Thanks! UPDATE: SimGuruGrant tweeted out that they are looking into fixing the cheats issue, and they expect to have a patch out very soon to fix issues. TwistedMexi has reached out to Grant to more info.
