These codes lift every rule of Build Mode. bb.moveobjects lets you stack objects and put them in places that are normally impossible, bb.showhiddenobjects adds hundreds of hidden objects to the Buy Mode catalog, and bb.ignoregameplayunlocksentitlement unlocks career rewards without earning them. Combine them with the keyboard shortcuts (the Alt key, 9 and 0, the square brackets) and there are practically no limits left when decorating.

Build and buy cheats: Common questions
What exactly does bb.moveobjects do?
It removes the grid and collision rules in Build Mode. You can stack objects, push them into walls and place them in spots that are normally rejected. Use it together with the Alt key and you break free of the grid completely.
How do I find hidden objects?
After typing bb.showhiddenobjects in the console, switch to Buy Mode and type debug in the search box. Collected plants, rocks, collectibles and developer objects are listed.
How do I keep an object in the air?
With the code on, that is after typing bb.moveobjects on, select the object and press 9; it rises a little with each press. The 0 key lowers it. This is the method used to hang shelves on walls or make ceiling decor.
Can the free placement code get Sims stuck?
It can. A Sim cannot use an object they cannot reach, so if you put a bed, toilet or fridge in a cramped spot, the Sim cannot finish the action. Decor objects carry no such risk.
