Just so you know, that won't change the number of single mothers you have. I do not change what the EA scripts ask for. If they send me a request for an adult and a dependent, I may change the genders and ages but I don't change the initial request parameters. So, changing the PercentChild to 2 doesn't mean you'll get an adult and 2% of the time you'll get a child otherwise you'll get just the adult. It means if EA sends a request for an adult and a dependent, you'll get an adult and 98% of the time you'll get a Teen, otherwise 2% of the time you'll get a child.
You'll still get a Single parent household. What the core game asks for, I still give them ultimately.
NOOOOOOOOOOO!
*shakes fists*
I have to gain control of this game, you don't understand my crazy OCD.
I don't want 8 single mother households running around. I wouldn't mind if it was families or evenly distributed but seeing an African-American mother, an African-American teen (that looks like her lesbian lover), and an Asian boy in every single one of these households is driving me crazy.
*delete....delete....delete*
So I do have a question for you the next time you stroll through here....
I had the percentage down to 5% earlier when it generated all those single mother households. If 5% means that 95% of the time it will generate teens then shouldn't it have made more households with teens? It made the same number of teens/children.
Just ultimately want more balance. I don't want that household configuration taking over my game. It was under control when I first installed the mod, I have no idea what changed. It's just been since this last patch that my game has exploded like this. Well, I did delete the two households I had with children in them. Surely, removing 4 children didn't do this?
Hmmm....I think I'll put them back and see what happens.
How's this going? I'm interested to see where these families the game is so determined to shove down your throat, end up. What role is THAT important, I wonder... you know?
Maybe leave one of those families in for a day or 2, and see where they turn up? (new save, of course. LOL)
