Ok, first of all : @egwarhammer - Thank you for starting this thread!
I have some Legacy-related questions. Generation 1 is coming to a close and I am now planning to write out my spares from the story:
1) The gay big brother who is married to his highschool sweetheart. Will the program induce adoption beteende them autonomously? Or if I want them to adopt I better do that before I cut the ties?
2) The middle daughter with low Self esteem who at the end of generation 1 at least have a boyfreind. With default settings how likely is it that they will get engaged and married if I move her out and mark her as unplayed?
No autonomous adoption, sorry... all the mod will do for adding kids is make some/any-body pregnant (either sex, many age groups...), so yeah, if you're adopting, I'd do it first. I'm guessing they're both guys? You could enable male pregnancy...
With default settings? Haha! (Sorry, yeah, they're on the website I know, but my first/funny thought was "do you KNOW how long it's been since I've had or SEEN default settings???" LOLOL I've been up all night, and am now off and happy about that, forgive me for being a little silly here.)
Most default settings are going to mimic game behavior, I'm afraid. @Bloudwed are you comfortable with editing the mc_settings config file with a text editor (game not running), or are you using the ingame computer interface to do it? (Text editor is much easier, to me.)
BTW, I haven't been to MTS yet this morning, so if anything's changed since yesterday, I don't know about it yet.
But about the daughter, a surer bet there would be to move her and her boyfriend into a place together. You could mark her for pregnancy, or just start one for them, unless you just want to toss them into the mod's whims.
You could set this one to true... my game's pretty young still, I've got plenty of family names already, so false works for me.

Trust me on THIS, before you trip (midnight) any alarms... roll a new save copy to do it. I've been saving at say 10pm, and/or 11pm, and then when the alarms trip at 12 (and sometimes takes till almost one to finish), then I pause, look at my log file, look at Manage Households, and decide if what just happened is how I want to save and go thru the next day.
(Yeah, everybody here today probably knows that. New players may not... that's why I go basic a lot, we're on the INTERNET! hehe)
I may have kept ONE original roll. Being able to back up an hour or two, and go at alarms again, has been sweet!
@MsPhy that flirty thing is just the game being its usual juvenile self, I'm afraid. MC can't STOP the flirting, but at least we DO have Forget Me to get rid of it when we see it's happened.
I'm not putting all my settings, but my pregnancy ones are below... look at what I've got, if yours is way different, let's chat about what we're trying to do. I'm learning too... hence the rerolls! LMAO
Gonna post this, I'll be back if I think of anything else... actually I'm going to look at MTS for a post I can almost remember seeing... grr!
