    It's unfortunately by design that great grandchildren can have romantic interactions with their great grandparent, our incest checks just don't go back that far. I'd call this more of a feature request, not a bug, pretty sure it's always been this way.

1t, 2d, and 3d generations have romantic interactions with 6th. There could be a limit but somehow all generations but 6th see the whole family tree, so the problem occurs from the "bottom" of the tree. Something wrong with this specific number of generations. Because the difference between 6th and 3d is the same as between 2d and 5th (and so on), but only 6th has the problem.

    @crinrict I my game, a sims great grand child can have romantic interactions with their great grand parent once they age up to a teen. Not sure what "generation" a great grandchild is tho.

        @SimGuruNick I guess that would make sense with a normal sim family as older generations dont live long enough to see their great grandchildren with normal aging and gameplay die offs. Its with the naturally immortal sims such as the vampires and spellcasters w/ immortality trait (whenever it gets fixed) where it gets weird with great grandchildren and so on down the family tree. So feature request to add further checks....yes please! 😯
