@TwistedMexican im so grateful to you for looking into my problem with the dead husband. I ran into a couple of problems so I thought I would let you know what happened.
Getting the dead husbands ID was easy, but my active sim was not! she has 2 names, Ziggy Star and her surname is Zavelli/ I tried ZiggyStar Ziggy_Star and Ziggy Star, nothing could find her, although the wrong versions returned an error, but inputting Ziggy Star Zavelli the game just hung. Then I did the fulleditmode cheat took her into cas and took Star out of her name, then I was able to find her ID. So far so good.
relationship.destroy (sim ID) (dead husband ID) seemed to fix the problem, my sim was able to propose to the new boyfriend. BUT I wanted my sim to wear the engagement ring, not the boyfriend. So I swapped to the boyfriend (he does not live with my sim,) I swapped to him by going back into cas on him, then saving which made him the active sim. (im sure there is a better way but i was too lazy to look it up) He then tried proposed to her, BUT now the option says 'convince sim to leave partner' (or some such thing). So now the game is again saying Ziggy is still involved with her dead husband, but anyway I took that option and she agreed to leave the dead husband and now they are engaged! which is the result I wanted of course. I then swapped back to my sim and she still has the plan wedding action so they are still engaged.
I just thought you might find that useful as the relationship.destroy seems to get reset to the old relationship again, unless it was a complication brought about by the fact my sim had 2 first names.
For future reference, "Ziggy Star" will also work ;) anytime there's a space around a single value you need to put it in quotes.
