Sims and Objects unclickable in Cheat Mode

Update

This bug was fixed in Patch 1.55.105

Problem

When I press ctl-shift-c to enter a cheat my game gets dark and I can’t click on any Sims or objects. Therefore I can’t actually use the cheats.

Writing cheats still works normally.

I also can’t leave the mode.

Cause

A bug that came with Patch 1.54.120.

Solution

Enter the cheat you need, then Can the mode by hitting the ESC key (or pressing ctl-shift-c again). After that you can shift-click on any object again.
