At its core the game’s grid system is designed to help position objects with ease. The main feature of the Build Mode you’ll have to work with (or overcome) is the grid system. This is only available after you’ve created and moved a Sim family into a lot. To move objects up and down, first enter the Build Mode by pressing F2 or clicking on the hammer and wrench icon in the lower-right corner of the screen. Here’s how you can move objects up and down in Sims 4, and some help for when you need to resort to developer tools and cheats to get better results. That is, if you decide to play by the rules.įudging objects around is a common for players who strive to achieve the perfect arrangement of furniture and household items (particularly for those who appreciate the principles of Feng Shui). However, the game still lacks a bit in terms of object movement and fitment. If you didn’t have the opportunity to build your dream home so far, the free base game provides plenty of customization options to get started. Sims 4’s recent move to F2P (free-to-play) caused a resurgence in player size.
