[RL] Children from unplayed Nobles don't receive title/not added to Dynasty

When members of the pre-loaded Dynasties (unplayed) have children (Capp, Monty, Thebes, etc) from neighborhood stories, they are not automatically added to the dynasty and do not get their parent's noble title. I can add them to the dynasty by playing as the household head but they still do not receive their parent's noble titles (Lord, Lady, etc). It kind of defeats the purpose of having a dynasty and lineage system for those unplayed households 

I did not start a new save for Royalty and Legacy so that could be part of the issue. Playing on PC. No Mods or CC

Edit By crinrict: Added Tag to Title, Adjusted Title

  • I've been playing a rotational save, Mac, no mods.

    Cordelia is now Queen of Ondarion, so Thiago is King by marriage. But Cordelia & Thiago's twin children, born while I was playing a different household, do not have any noble title. The game thinks they're commoners.

    I tested having Cordelia have another baby. If I'm actively playing the Thebe household, the baby is born a prince or princess. But if the baby is born while I am playing another household, the child doesn't receive a noble title at all.

    What should happen: Children of Kings/Queens/Monarchs should be born Prince/Princess even if they're not the active household when born.

    Should say Prince Russell, because parents are King/Queen of Ondarion. But instead there is no noble title for the children.The first two children were born while I was playing another household, and have no noble title or border in the family tree. The newborn was born while I was actively playing the Thebe family, and was born a Princess.

    I have a save file set up with Cordelia in labor if EA needs to replicate the bug.

    Does anyone know of a workaround cheat to get the titles back?

    Were the children in the dynasty for you ?

    No, they weren't born into the dynasty. I had to add them manually when I switched to the household.

    They age up to infant with the Blue Blood trait, but no title and obviously none of the bonus traits for being born into a dynasty. (I cheated to give them the Mild Physical Affinity trait they should've been born with)

    Yeah sound the same then.

    Did you play the family and initiate the pregnancy, then switch or let NS do it's thing ?

    Yeah, I initiated the pregnancy.

    I can see in the Thebe family tree where the Montys had a few kids with NS though, and they didn't join their dynasty. (They're not noble so I can't check titles.)

    Noble Career promotion/demotion seems to reset the titles. So the workaround for the kids (if the parents are already monarchs) is to have a parent abdicate, or cheat to demote and re-promote. Or evict and move them in again, which would demote them a level.

    Happens with me too. Firstly, new children in all played but not active at the moment households didn`t enter the dynasty but got titles. For now, they stopped even get titles (several families, all or at least one of the parents into noble career, all of the parents are part of some dynasty).

    Hi there, I've noticed an issue with the new expansion pack. Basically, when my sim dies, all his children except for his heir lose their titles, making them civilians after growing up royals. Is this a known bug?
