⚡ Quick Answer: Does it have console commands?
Oui, because the game runs on the Ren’Py visual novel engine, it features a built-in developer console on PC. However, it is locked by default. To enable it, you must activate developer mode and press the Maj + O keys during gameplay.

📝 Editor’s Note
This guide was last updated and verified against Love and Sex: Second Base Patch 23.1.2. All Python console commands listed below have been manually tested by our team to ensure they work in the current build. Please back up your save files—located at %APPDATA%\RenPy\—before modifying game memory, as native Ren’Py developer tools can occasionally cause fatal traceback errors.

Introduction
We have all been there. You have just spent three hours grinding shifts at the diner and clicking “Work Out” at the gym just to get Shawn’s stats high enough to trigger the next story event with Bree or Kelly. Visual novels and dating sims are meant to be enjoyed for their narrative and romance, and there is absolutely no shame in bending the rules to bypass the tedious daily life simulation grind.
After rigorously testing these Python variables on the latest patch, this guide provides the ultimate, organized list of working Love and Sex: Second Base cheats. Let us get your character powered up and ready for the weekend.

How to Enable Console Commands in Love and Sex: Second Base
Before you can start typing in stat codes, you need to tell the Ren’Py engine you want access to the developer backend. The console is hard-locked in the public release, so you must perform a quick configuration tweak.

Gift IDs and Variable Editing Guide
Spawning items or gifts is slightly different from toggling your stats. You usually need the specific internal string name for the gift you want to add to Shawn’s inventory.
player.inventory.append("ItemID")Popular Item IDs:
🎁
"chocolate" – Basic gift item for quick affection boosts.🎁
"flowers" – Standard romantic gift for dates.🎁
"lingerie_set" – High-tier gift required for specific late-game intimate events.⚠️ Do Cheats Disable Achievements?
Yes, they absolutely do. This is the biggest catch when using the built-in Ren’Py developer console. In Love and Sex: Second Base, the moment you hit Enter on a console command that alters a core variable, the game flags your save file. From that point forward, you will not be able to unlock any Steam achievements on that specific playthrough.
If you are an achievement hunter or completionist looking to naturally collect all the CGs, using the native console is a fast way to ruin your 100% completion run.
🛑 Why Native Cheats Break Saves
Beyond the achievement lock, developer consoles in visual novels are notoriously unstable. These commands were originally built for developers to test dialogue branches during production, not for everyday gameplay.
Forcing a relationship variable to 100 early in the story can cause crucial narrative events to trigger out of order. This often results in a massive grey screen filled with text reading “Traceback (most recent call last)”—a fatal Python crash. Memory leaks, corrupted persistent data, and broken dialogue trees are incredibly common when you bypass intended story triggers using raw code.
The Safer Alternative: Using XMODhub
If you want the benefits of cheats—like infinite money, max energy, or skipping the heavy stat grind—without risking your visual novel save files or locking your achievements, you need a dedicated game modification tool instead of the raw, unstable Ren’Py console.
This is exactly what XMODhub is built for. Instead of typing risky Python code that might corrupt your game world, the XMODhub app hooks into Love and Sex: Second Base safely and cleanly.

Troubleshooting: Console Not Opening
If you are pressing the key and nothing is happening, try these quick fixes:
Developer Mode Not Active:
The Shift + O command will not work unless you successfully created the .rpy file as outlined in the steps above. Double-check that your text file is not accidentally named dev_enable.rpy.txt.
Wrong Keyboard Layout:
If you are using a non-US keyboard layout, the Shift key combinations might not register correctly in the engine.
Typos in the Code:
Python variables are highly case-sensitive. Ensure you type player.money exactly as shown. Typing Player.Money with capital letters will return an error.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can I use these console commands on Mac or Android ports?
A : Modifying the config.developer script can work on Mac, but accessing the console via keyboard on mobile ports is extremely difficult without external Bluetooth hardware. XMODhub is strictly limited to the Windows PC version.
Q: Is there a penalty for using cheats in a dating sim?
A : There is no account ban or official penalty for cheating in a single-player visual novel environment. The only downsides are the potential for corrupted save files and disabled achievements, which can be avoided by using a trainer like XMODhub.
Q: How do I turn a cheat off?
A : Stat cheats in Ren’Py are permanent once entered. If you set your money to 99999, it stays there. The only way to “turn it off” is to type player.money = 0 (or whatever your previous balance was) into the console again.
