Deleting homework

You know, I found out I only have to type part of the cheat (not boolprop) then hit Tab and the game will fill in the rest. I used to have them shortened in the userStartup but I don't (never could remember what I used so I quit trying. I figure if it works in my game it'll work in others. :)

I type in pl and hit Tab then plumbobtoggle shows up and I hit enter. Not much typing.
mov - tab - moveobjects in brought up.
It has to be enough of the code to differenciate between modifyneighborhoodterrain and moveobjects. mod is all it takes to bring up the modifyneighborhood. I'm glad I messed up typing and it showed me an easier way.

Actually, I've discovered that when I was in the same situation if all of the sims in your household were aged up to at least an adult, then you could simply just go into build/buy mode and delete the homework manually without the use of any cheats. I know that this is late, but I hope it helps somebody!

I believe it should automatically delete itself. Give it a few Sim days.

It’s been 1 sim day so I’ll be patient. All kids have grown up in this household for now. Next generation will eventually come along. Thanks for the tips!

Update: the homework never went away. But I forgot that the sim’s brother wasn’t a teen yet and it was high school homework. Guess he gets to do double homework this weekend!

Lol or you can open up the cheat menu and put moveObjects on (just like that, with a capital O ) then pick it up and hit your delete button. :)

edit lolz! Then once you delete it open the menu again and put moveObjects off

You don't want to leave it on you will be totally confused why you can stick things inside each other. :joy:

You don't need to use capitals for the cheats. The reason they capitalized letters was so that you could read the words in the cheat. ;)

Alternately use the sledgehammer tool in build mode.

Or, of you want to see something really cute, let a cat or dog ravage the homework. That last bit happens only rarely, though.

I sometimes forget to set move objects back to off. I started to rebuild a room once and I was wondering why doors would end up in the middle of the room and why I could fit the small TV with wheels on top of a dresser.

LOL! Been there myself! I was like, why does this picture just keep going through the wall!!?? :D Things being placed over each other..then I am like Oooohhhhh!! Derp!! and fix it.

Before TS2UC some cheats were case sensitive or they wouldn't work. This might have been changed much later in the EPs or something.

They must have been the less common cheats or maybe some of the more complex building cheats (I didn't really start building until the end of TS2's run, so later EPs may have changed my experience), because I've never capitalized any of my cheats. *shrug*

I was so used to having to write cheats a certain way, I never even realized you didn't have to anymore. :D I have gone in game recently and used the cheats with only lowercase, so it does work. I just never realized it before. It does make things much easier!
