BS Flag

I'm a gen 2 female.  Didn't have a stable home location due to geography, and in fact had to travel over lots of snow repeatedly.  Didn't have a home marker setup for myself, but my Eve had set one.  Wasn't more than +1 yum bonus.

And yet, I still managed to birth not 1, not 2, but 3 sets of triplets!  At age 50, I had 15 kids.  I raised one.  Why?  Because in my previous game, a single set of twins ruined an Eve run with a Goldilocks map placement.  So I wasn't putting up with it this time.

There absolutely needs to be an option upon start to not be saddled with twins, triplets or quadruplet births.  This is my BS Flag.

Just do what you did. Choose not to feed them.

Re: BS Flag

Unless there's some info out there that I don't know about I do not think that yum bonus influences who gets multiple births, just whether you get chosen as a mother. So you just got stuck with a group of trips probably trying to spawn back in repeatedly, it happens. If you don't want to raise them, just don't.

And Yum bonus is effectively only interesting in day times of waning player base. If it's increasing all the females will go into cool down no matter how bad their Yum. And since there was at least an Eve just a generation before you, it's likely you played in increasing player base times... so you gonna get babies no matter what.

Re: BS Flag

and on the other side there are players who take care of their yum and temperature and only get a single son / daughter, this is my case yesterday ... I was Volvi Tarr in my city had everything, it was not a problem to survive there ... I looked after my YUM and my temperature but I only had one suicidal daughter

I think something is not working correctly

Re: BS Flag

Many reasons for this from size of player base changing depending on time of day, what server you're on, how many people were lineage banned from you/your town etc. none of which mean that something is not working correctly.

OMG

Definitely something is not working well ... when I played and only got 1 girl, it was rush hour in Europe (18: 00h GMT + 1) and it was on a full server

Re: BS Flag

Playing on a full server makes it less likely that you will have children. Ever server gets the same number of births. Playing on a more-populated server means that same number of births will be split among a larger number of fertile women. (This didn't used to be the case; this came about after the recent change that disabled sticky sessions.)

Playing when there's a lot of people playing or only a few people playing doesn't change how many births you will get. What matters is whether the playerbase is increasing or decreasing. If it's increasing, you will have more births; if it's decreasing, you will have fewer births.

Average lifespan also affects number of births. If other players are dying young, you will have more births. If other players are dying old, you will have fewer births.
