How to destroy all sim-written books in world?

[Noromarc]

What is the procedure for destroying, removing, deleting, erradicating every book ever written by a player-controlled sim? Or at the very least keeping the hundred and something copies from showing up in the world library bookcases?

For AwesomeMod? Type "burnbook *" into the console. Needs debug commands. All sim-written books will then be exterminated summarily, as if they had never been. As for the hundred-and-something copies? Eh, just ignore that, it's not important.

I wish the command was "Fahrenheit451 *", but then I suppose you'd have people who couldn't spell it. :/

[J. M. Pescado]

Yes, but you are a Lorelei. Plus, when I made the command ages ago, I sort of whipped it together to fulfill a specific function of purging ghost authorless books from the game, and then sort of just left it there, and never mentioned its existence to anyone until now, so I wasn't really thinking of making it a reference.

Console command worked flawlessly, burning every sim-authored book in the world and removing all printed editions from both household and public library. It also seems to have stopped all pending cheques from the sim's publishing company.

[J. M. Pescado]

Well, yes. The book no longer exists. It was unwritten. That's what happens when you expunge all references to it from existence.

Just out of curiosity; does it affect a sim's "books written score"?

The un-written book should act as if it was never written. It is erased as if it had never existed. Expunged utterly from the space-time continuum. You know, exactly the kind of thing you would expect to happen when you invoke a delete command written by me.

Do books that were never written count towards a sim's book written score? WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Pescado does not destroy. Pescado makes things not exist in the first place.
