moveobjects cheat is not working at all.

A few days ago, after I made a new world, the "moveobjects on" cheat stopped working. All other cheats still work except "moveobjects on". I'm 101% sure I'm typing it in right. I have NO mods installed, only custom content, none of which is a .package file. There is no reason for this to be happening. I had this happen awhile ago with the "familyfunds" cheat, but it just kinda started working again randomly. It's starting to get very aggravating. What could be causing this and how do I fix it?

    I got it to work by typing in "moveObjects on". I'm not sure why that worked, that's not how I've typed in ever before, but I'm glad it's working now, lol.

    @squidthefox  Try entering testingcheatsenabled true first, then moveobjects on.  If that alone doesn't help, try entering moveobjects off and testingcheatsenabled false, then turning them on in sequence.

    If that doesn't help either, delete the five cache files in your game folder in Documents.  They can get clogged with stale data and should be deleted regularly even in the absence of game issues.  For reference, those files are:

    • CASPartCache.package
    • compositorCache.package
    • scriptCache.package
    • simCompositorCache.package
    • socialCache.package

    After deleting the caches, if you still can't use moveobjects, try turning off both cheats and then clearing your cache files again.

    I went looking for a reason why it wasn't working and typing the way you did worked for me as well so I guess they changed the cheat code.
