Yes, this was a bad decision on EA's part (at least from a gamer's point of view...they may have had other issues on their minds at the time). I also noticed they have changed how the family trees work now that I'm not happy about. I like to have one sim in my game who acts as the "pollinator" (if you will) to keep my neighborhoods growing. I noticed families were stagnating and not having children. Guess the men were all impotent maybe from playing too many video games? Anywho....I have this one sim go around and get jiggy with all the women in the hood of childbearing years and once I had a guy who'd fathered 28 different children with different moms. It was fabulous. The family tree was quite the tangle though.
Anyway, eventually that game crashed. Imagine that. So I started that experiment again after leaving it fallow for some time and several patches and now I look and I don't see the connections to the moms. All I see are the children linked to the dad. If I click on the child's avatar it brings up that kid's connections to his mom and the dad but if I'm looking at the man's tree it doesn't show who he had the child with. BOOO!!! I liked it the old way. Made it easier remembering all the ones he'd knocked up and who he still needed to get to.
But back to the issue of the missing urns. I noticed the Baer family were aging and I was going to go and use CAS to make them young adults again but didn't get to it before Candy died BUT when I went and played that lot I noticed her sister had no memory or relation to her sister who had been in the game previously. That is kind of odd but I guess they were just considered NPCs so they never really had any relationship with each other and there is no way to recover her.
