Paralives cheats list
Short answer: open the console with
Ctrl+F1orCtrl+Shift+Con PC, orCmd+Fn+F1on Mac, then runhelpbefore using any command.
How to open the console
Use one of these shortcuts while playing:
| Platform | Shortcut |
| --- | --- |
| Windows / PC | Ctrl+F1 |
| Windows / PC alternate | Ctrl+Shift+C |
| Mac | Cmd+Fn+F1 |
After the console opens, type help to print the commands available in your installed build. Early Access commands can change, so help is still the first command to use even when you know what you want.
Common command categories
Money commands include jackpot, lottery, makeitrain, piggybank, printmoney [amount], setmoney [amount], and payday. These are the safest starting point because their effect is easy to inspect in household funds.
Needs commands include reliefallneeds, reliefallneeds ofallcharacters, showneeds, and setneed [NeedID] [value]. Use these when testing hunger, sleep, hygiene, fun, and other need values.
Age and life stage commands include setage [number], nextlifestage, and previouslifestage. Use them on a backup save because age changes can alter relationships, household flow, and long-term story state.
Skill commands include showskills, levelupskill [SkillID], and setskilllevel [SkillID] [value]. Check the skills database for the current skill IDs listed on this site.
Character and time commands include editcharacter, getpregnant, givebirth, killcharacter, reviveallselectedcharacters, advanceday, advancehour, and sethour [hour].
How to use this list
Open Paralives cheats and console commands, search by command or effect, and read the notes column before using a command. The table is rendered from cheats.json, so the guide and the database page stay aligned.
Before testing destructive commands
Commands that change age, pregnancy, death, birth, or time should be tested on a copied save. If a command affects the wrong Para, reload before saving.
Formatting matters
Commands with placeholders need a value. For example, setmoney [amount] becomes setmoney 50000, and setskilllevel [SkillID] [value] becomes setskilllevel Astronomy 10.
