To modify or add likes and dislikes, open the Simology panel and scroll to the likes and dislikes section. From here, select the “Enter Create A Sim” option and you can then change any of your Sims selected likes and dislikes plus add new ones. For Horse Ranch, the new options include:
- Horse Riding
- Nectar-Making
- Ranch Music
Without mods, these are the only cheats specifically for Horse Ranch you can use. However, if you are able to or want to install The Sims 4 mods too, you can download the AllCheats mod to gain access to further cheats like modifying your Sims wants and fears and milestone goals.
You can also make the entire cheat process much easier with tools like the UI Cheats mod that allows you to simply click to change the level of your Sims skills or instantly replenish their needs or MC Command Center which allows you total control over just about everything.
