Console Commands

This guide will list all the commands and keys I can find. Make sure you look at the first section before trying anything else from this guide. I will try to explain the commands i know as well as possible.

Updates

After having stopped playing for a while, I'm back and i'm done wasting my life on scummy games like Hero Wars. (Not sponsored... at all.) I'm now going to work on this guide once more.

Set up and Notes

First, go into your save game (Not a save you plan on obtaining achievements in). Pause your game and press the tilde key (~). If you been wondering what this thing does, you came to the right place. Enter the code "iddqd" and exit out of the pause screen. You should get a little notification saying something about developer hotkeys. This guide will tell you about those keys. Also you can re-enter that code to disable it. (From what I can assume, though I don't think it re-enables achievements, so be sure to do this on a test profile.)

Alright, for the peeps who don't get what I said, here is step-by-step how to do it.
1. Launch the Game.
2. Load your save (or start a new game).
3. Press the ESC key when in-game to open the pause menu.
4. Press the Tilde Key (~)
5. Enter the code "iddqd". (Note: The code will not be visible when you type it.)
6. Exit out of the code pop-up and pause menus by pressing ESC until you are back in the game.
7. Press Tilde Key while playing the game to open the actual console.
8. Type your commands into the console. (You can also just press the keys to type it while playing.)
9. Press Tilde Key to close the console.

NOTES
- To open the console, press tilde in-game (Do this while using your tablet so you can click the text box at the bottom of the screen.) Some text-based commands need this.
- Click on Text (While your tablet is on screen, preferably on the Camera Tab) to look at extended text on the console. This is very useful after using the "help" command so you can see.
- Commands ARE Case-Sensitive!
- Most commands can just be typed in game without the console, might cause your player to do things, but it's a shortcut! You can also put these commands into the console. (NOT the "Enter the Code" input!)
- After enabling cheats, you will have debug text on the lower left corner. This can be hidden by the "hideversion" cheat.

Hotkeys

F1: Take you to the Confluence Website, onto a restricted page, unfortunately.
F3: Unlocks all tools and the tablet. Note that this does not enable device mounting until you complete the first mission.
F5: Adds at least $500,000 per press. I couldn't bother to get the exact amount. Would be nice if someone knew what it was.
F8: Makes most tools work instantly, works for Cleaning, Painting, Tiling, Building Walls, Planting, Mounting and Repairing.
F9: Makes you complete the whole mission, it might show the task being complete, but if you press ENTER, it will say you fully completed it and you will receive max payment. (Depending on your Higher Payment Perk level)
F11: Toggles debug info for rooms and whatever item you are looking at. Very useful if you don't know what you're supposed to sell in some missions Also works for the "find" based commands.
(,): Changes Language left.
(.): Changes Language right.
Left Alt + Y: Enables no-clip, allowing you to reach areas high, low, and blocked off, as well as still letting you use your tools. Simply do the command / hotkey again to teleport back to where you originally used it.
Left Alt + Z: Turns on something called "time scale". I need info on this.
Left Alt + J: Unknown.
? (Slash): Tells you what buyers want and what they think of your house, even if you have your office there. The buyers are listed from Certain to Least Likely to buy your house. You can view the other buyers by pressing the Left or Right Arrow Keys. The only problem is that you can't see all the comments, but any negative comments will most likely be displayed first, so that may be useful.

Useful Commands 1

Note this is mainly a small segment for non-gameplay related codes.

Base Help

help: List all the commands you can enter on the console. You can also put a command after "help" and it will tell you what that command does. Doesn't work for most unknown commands, so is pretty much useless to me.
displayMainInfo: Putting in the command alone will give a list of help pop-ups. Typing that pop-up's name after this command should show the pop-up. (Not tested)

UI Commands

hideui: Hides everything on screen (May or may not work for debug version text), works well for screenshots!... as long as you know where you are, you will have to type the command again (no matter what menu is open) to see again.
hideversion: Hides the debug version text on the bottom left after activating the console.

Useful Commands 2

Cheats

enableTabletAndTools: Same as pressing F3, Unlocks all tools and the tablet, as well as allows you to use them in missions that don't let you. Note that you may not be able to mount devices until you mount the radiator in the first mission. This is not a toggle, and tools might get re-disabled in certain missions, simply do the command or hotkey again.
addMoneyToBankAccount: Same as pressing F5, adds over $500000.
noclip: Same as Left Alt + Y, but may be easier if you forget the hotkey.
lasthouse: Completes the game, allowing you to buy the houses as many times as you want.
cut: Cuts all the grass on the property. Note that this also covers surfaces and items with grass. Simply move the item or an item nearby to fix this. This also covers bare patches of land, but does not count as laying turf, so make sure to complete any turf missions before using this.
shotgun: Replaces your sledgehammer with a shotgun (similar to what happens on April 1st), allowing you to destroy the whole wall segment at once and from a greater range. You might be able to also do this by changing your computer's date to April 1st.
maps: Unlocks access to HGTV, Luxury, Pets, and Farm missions instantly.
worldfire: This one literally destroys everything on whatever house your on... but that includes client items, though you are forced to reinstall appliances.

Skill Commands

NOTE: These only work on the profile you activated the console on first.
skilll: Might have been the command that makes you level up a skill every time you do something related to the skill.
skillr: Resets skill points?
skillm: Gives all skill points and activates all the perks right away. For best results, use at the beginning of the game before first job for maximum payment.
skillu: Gives all points for all skills, though you manually have to activate the perks.

Animal Commands

Under Construction.

Useless Commands

hello: Prints "Is it me you looking for?".
echo: Prints "echo".
lap: Activates your laptop wherever you are, but only at your office.
lop: Teleports your laptop right in front of you, but again, only at your office.
nomoney: No more money.

Debug Commands

Work in progress.

Unknown Commands

expect100: I assume this makes you get 100% in the garden contest? Not sure.
orders: I think this was supposed to be the complete order command?
flush: I thought this would get rid of all dirt.
wayne: No clue, and I don't think this means anything.
timescale: Does not seem to do anything.

I haven't really been cheating lately, all I know is that the "help" command does not give much useful info on commands. Oh, I think I know. That command might only be usable in the CONSOLE itself.

[✧Catta☽]

Thank you, Buddy!
Do you know why "help" doesn't work? It doesn't show any info at all.

[Buddy]

"lasthouse" just marks your profile as completed so you can buy houses again, so it shouldn't affect houses you already own. Also i'm afraid that I don't know how to view all the buyer's opinions. All I know is that negative are displayed first.

[✧Catta☽]

Hello,
Will "lasthouse" reset or sell my decorated and not yet sold houses?
How to see the entire list of a certain buyer's opinions? They all don't fit on the screen and can't be scrolled down.

[Buddy]

I really don't know. Maybe they disabled it? I don't play with cheats anymore.

[SHRDControl_99]

hey, i was wondring how you type the tilde without making key combinatios. Because every time that I press ESC and try to type the tilde nothing change or appears, meaning that i can´t type IDDQD. Is there a way? Or develpoers have simply disabled it?

[Buddy]

It always worked for me. I have never experienced that problem. I'm so sorry... Please kick me.

[joe-frosch]

Doesn't work Translator Used

[Buddy]

Joe, I can't help you, why? ENGLISH PAL, DO YOU SPEAK IT??
