I wrote a small mod that lets you skip the affection/lust point grind without having to go through the tedium of typing in cheat codes or having your save labelled with the cheater flag.
View attachment 1901303
Features:
- Sets all girls' affection and lust points to a value X unless they were already higher than X
- Can set a specific girl's love/lust points
- Written to be future-proof (i.e. will automatically work for any new girls, you will never need to update the mod)
- Enables the developer console
Usage Instructions:
- Download the attached file
- Note: if you get sent to a new tab with a bunch of text, just right click and hit "Save as" and name it as z_set_love_lust.rpy
- Move into the folder named "game" (found inside the folder that you launch Lessons in Love from)
- Load a save and open the developer console with Shift + O
- Press Enter a few times until you can see the ">" symbol in the top left of the screen
- To update all girls' love and lust: type setLoveAndLust(X) and press Enter(for an example, see the image below)
- Note: X must be an integer (aka whole number)
- To update a specific girl's love or lust, for example Ami: type "ami_love += X" and/or "ami_lust += X" without the quotation marks and then press Enter.
- Note: the girl's name must be fully lower-case.
- This will increase their love/lust by X. If you want to make it equal to X then omit the plus sign
- Press Esc to close the console and now you can play!
Bonus stuff (not essential to read):
I recommend using this with the guide mod for max efficiency because other than grinding points, the main time-sink with this game is trying to trigger events.
If you want a version of the mod that lets you set affection and lust points separately (useful if you don't want to see any lust events), see here:

Advice from alex2011 on how to use the mod so that you don't accidentally miss events (note: I used the mod myself with 50 affection from the start and didn't experience any issues. You can still miss events even if you follow the instructions below and you can still see all events while ignoring those instructions.):
Uninstall: delete the files z_set_love_lust.rpy and z_set_love_lust.rpyc from your game subfolder
I also made a mod that lets you scroll your mouse-wheel to simulate clicks (i.e. scrolling forward a bit makes the dialogue move forward by one mouse click), makes the game more convenient to play
