The computer menu: settings
Each module adds its own entry, so what you see depends on the files you kept. The ones most players open first:
- MC Pregnancy: story progression. Neighborhood Sims marry and have children on their own. The checks run at midnight on set days: Monday, Wednesday and Friday on Normal lifespan, Tuesday and Saturday on Long, and Saturday only with aging off.
- MC Population: moves homeless Sims into empty homes and sets move-in and move-out rules. Allow Homeless Move-in can be switched off.
- MC Career: difficulty for careers, school and university, and how fast homework gets done.
- MC Tuner: stops autonomous actions you are tired of, such as Mean and Mischief.
- MC Cleaner and MC Dresser: automatic cleanup of ghosts, married names and outfits, on a nightly schedule.
Most changes apply at once. Changes that need a game restart show an orange warning instead of the usual blue notification.
The Sim menu: commands
- Modify in CAS: opens Create a Sim for that Sim. Deaderpool recommends it for households above 8 Sims, because the game's own CAS deletes Sims past 8.
- Maintain Sim: moves a Sim to another household.
- Sim Flags: per-Sim switches. Never Cull protects a Sim (or a family-tree ghost) from being deleted. Freeze Career keeps an NPC in their current job, or stops career progress for an active Sim.
- MC CAS: change name, voice, body details, fitness and favorite drink.
- MC Cheats: career promote and demote, reset career branch, change vacation days, and Change Sim Mood, which applies the strongest version of a mood for 2 hours.
- MC Control: gives an NPC an interaction to perform with another Sim on the lot. NPCs do not get every interaction, and they can still decide to leave.

Five things to set up first
- Confirm it loaded. When you load a household, a notification shows the MCCC version and each module.
- Decide on story progression. To stop random pregnancies, set Pregnancy Percentage to 0 under Pregnant Sim Selection in MC Pregnancy.
- Protect the Sims you care about with the Never Cull flag before you enable ghost cleanup.
- Big households: raise the household size setting, then add Sims with
sim_moveor Maintain Sim. The game's own tools stay capped at 8. - Delete modules you do not use. Only
mc_cmd_centeris required. The module picker lists what to keep.

FAQ
How do I open MCCC in Sims 4?
Click a computer or a Sim and choose MC Command Center. Or open the console with Ctrl+Shift+C and type mc_settings.
Why is there no MCCC option when I click my Sim?
Usually the MCCC version does not match your game, script mods are switched off, or the files sit more than one folder deep in Mods. See the fixes.
Where is MC Cheats?
On Sims and on the mailbox, never on the computer. It has commands only, no settings.
Do MCCC settings carry over to other saves?
Settings are stored in mc_settings.cfg in the MCCC folder, and Deaderpool says they carry over between versions as long as that file stays in place.
