Bear and Boyfriend & Girlfriend Material Trait by DrewShivers

At a first glance through the eyes of a stranger, any one person can look intimidating depending on key features including size, expression and sound. Often, a large man of extreme physique bearing a static or even angry appearance upon his face tends to come off too strongly. While it’s a possibility, these looks often only remain plastered to his exterior, rendering his interior the total opposite. He’s a big, plushy bear on the inside and out.

Like any bear, these sims bound around with a powerful presence and impressive body. It’s apparent they have no intentions to shave or drop the dumbbells any time soon. Bighearted and gentle, bears make excellent lovers and are nothing short of protective when it comes to family and friends. Poke him if you dare. He’ll be sure to poke back-in a number of ways.

There are those in the world who do not wish to settle down nor start a family. To be free and reckless is sometimes a desire held by both the young and old. The feeling is invigorating. However, there are those who aspire to obtain the opposite thrill in life. These sims want to find true love and are the ideal person to date and tend to make lifelong companions. They don’t want a summer fling, but a lifetime together and a family.

RelPrint Console Cheats: Sims relationships in exact numbers by todoabout - MTS

Ever had the same problem as poor Rose here?
Then maybe I have a solution for you!
Problem Description

In Sims games before 2014, it was relatively easy to sort relationships by their range. The game simply did it for us, the leftmost Sim in the Relationships panel being the most friendly and the rightmost Sim being the least friendly towards the active character.

Then The Sims 4 came out, and suddenly the sorting order became less helpful and less obvious. Friends and bypassers and enemies and lovers, all jumbled, all pell-mell... It's like the Relationships panel was put through the blender. I'm not sure what the current sorting order is supposed to be (last talked to, perhaps?), but you surely can't decipher who's your first and second best friend from there.

In the game resources, there is relationship.print_score cheat, which is supposed to show relationship score. It was never officially announced by Maxis, and it doesn't seem to work at all. (This mod is loosely based on relationship.print_score, the difference is this one actually works).

The worst thing about it is that some challenges like The Bachelor or my very own Thirty-One (which I'm currently playtesting in TS4) require the player to distinguish between relationship levels. The absence of this info renders the challenge virtually unplayable, if you simply can't tell which Sim is winning and which one gets the boot. That is a serious problem.

This is where I come in.

Overview and Usage
RelPrint Console Cheats is a small mod which allows you to get Sims relationships represented in exact numbers. It adds two console cheats to the game, Relationship Print (relprint) and Household Relationship Print (hhrelprint). Using these, you can print out the needed information in the console.
