Controlling the Weather In The Sims 4

The Sims 4: Seasons was the successor to the highly-celebrated expansion packs, The Sims 3: Seasons and The Sims 2: Seasons. Through the launch of the said expansion pack in June 2018, we simmers have had the privilege to experience the wonderful weather system in The Sims 4—allowing our sims to delight themselves in all four seasons of winter, spring, summer, and fall. Of course, since the expansion pack has filled the game with all new climate conditions and atmospheric changes, we want you to have full power and control! Thus, we have prepared the ultimate weather cheat sheet for you.

Weather Cheat: Summon Those Raindrops

Okay first off, let’s focus on rain cheats.

However, these cheats are also essential if you want to summon your sims outside and make them dance in the rain! Input the following rain cheats on your cheat console:

We know how terrifying it is to have sims staying outside the house whenever there is lightning, as there will be a high chance they will be zapped—which in turn, will give them a negative moodlet for a few hours. But if you want to play God in the Sims 4, then we won’t stop you in case you want to charge up the sky with more lightning! Input the following lightning cheats on your cheat console:

  • weather.lightning_strike_object {simID} – This will allow you to call a lightning strike on a targeted Sim.
  • weather.summon_lightning_strike – This will allow you to call a lightning strike in your neighborhood.

Aside from sharing with you the ultimate cheat sheet for controlling the weather, we also have a list of cheats to give you power over the seasons in the game! Yep. You can transform the seasons in The Sims in a flash. These are the cheats for summer, fall, winter, and spring:

Not only can you change the seasons, but you can also modify the exact length of the seasons. This is especially helpful if you want to lengthen one particular season to your liking. Type the following cheats to change the duration of the seasons:

  • seasons.set_season_length <0> – This will let you set the season duration to 7 days.
  • seasons.set_season_length <1> – This will let you set the season duration to 14 days.
  • seasons.set_season_length <3> – This will let you set the season duration to 28 days.

Changing the Weather Without Cheats

It is also possible to change the weather and control the seasons in the game without using cheats. Check out the instructions below:

1. In-Game Settings

Sims4 298

Control the weather and season settings through the game itself. Access the game menu and click Game Options. Then select the Seasons tab. In the first section, you can freely decide the length of the seasons in the game. Take note that changing the length will affect the position of existing holidays and events on your sim’s calendar.

In the second and third sections, you can enable some options for rain and snow, giving you the choice to toggle extreme weather conditions. The last section then asks you whether you want to enable temperature effects on sims. Checking this means that your sims could die from severe weather effects if you’re not careful.

2. Purchasing a Weather-Changing Device

Next, we have Dr. June’s Weather-Changing Device. This weather-changing machine, which appears as a clunky and rusty gizmo filled with knobs, controls, and an antenna, is available in Build Mode for 1,500 simoleons. Purchasing this nifty tool will allow your sim to change the weather whenever they like. But if you also want them to have control of the seasons through this device, then they would have to raise their Handiness skill and upgrade it.

There are eight levels of upgrade for Dr. June’s Weather-Changing Device. Make sure your sims reach the level 8 Handiness skill so they can have the ability to upgrade the Temporal Modifier Unit of the device—allowing them then, to have complete control of winter, spring, summer, and fall in the game.

In Conclusion

Make sims dance in the rain, allow them to play in the snow, let the sun kiss their skin, or conjure a great thunderstorm in their neighborhood for a change. Whatever you want the weather to be, you have full control, as long as you have this ultimate weather cheat sheet. Happy playing simmers!
