Hello all, I'm new to MCCC and it's working great, I love it. My question is, I set the townie pregnancy percentage a wee bit too high and there is a bit of a baby boom in my game at the moment, and now I can't find where I need to go to adjust it down a smidge. Thanks in advance. :)

You got the info from EG but I thought it worth some personal experience because I've been there and done that. I went the other way and set my random pregnancy % really low for a wide range of ages from VYA through Adults. Nothing happened. Never a pregnancy in sight. So I upped it a lot and just went with YA. Bam! It seemed they were all pregnant. Its worth understanding the way the Mod handles this random pregnancy lark.

MC creates a single span from the ages you select. At the beginning of the total span of ages it gives a low chance of getting pregnant and towards the end of the total span the chance is quite high. The % adjustment figure you enter changes the overall effect either up or down. So, if you have YA and Adult enabled then YAs recently aged from teen have quite a small chance of pregnancy. Sims nearly aging to Elder have a much higher chance of pregnancy.

If you suddenly enable the MC Pregnancy on Adults and you have a bunch of Adults all close to aging up then you will get a sudden splurge of pregnancies. MC has loads of candidates and needs to get to them before they age to Elder. I found that once my game settled down MC would give me pregnancies across the full age span I had selected and I could tweak my % figure up a bit to suit my needs.
