Starting Over - Rudy and Sabrina Blue

After messing around with the 'play with genetics' I have realized that the blue color quickly fades. The original dark blue color was gone in gen 2, and by generation 3 only around 25% are teal, half are a greyish color and the rest are other random skin colors. Without marrying cousins, the blue color will quickly die out. To resolve this, I am starting over with 2 blue founders: Rudy and Sabrina Blue with the color of having a blue family in every house.

Before I start, I changed some settings in my MC Command Center, changed maximum homeless to 2, enabled moving out elders and set open houses to 0. For pregnancies, I set it to run on teen, young adult and adults, enabled affairs, allowed pregnancies to happen on played (not active) households, disabled enforce family, set max household children to 10, max allowable offspring to 6, automarry percent to 50, and pregnancies to opposite sex only. I also installed a new mod No Cull to keep my family trees in tact, and went through each house and moved a piece of furniture so mc command center would register them as valid houses.

I've changed the rules a bit:

  • Create a blue (or green) male and female that are unrelated. Start them as teens or young adults. Have an elder in the house if starting as teens.
  • Let all active and unplayed sims auto-age on normal or long speed, you can choose whether or not to auto-age inactive played households, I choose not to. Pregnancy tests are ok.
  • Each sim will have a monogamous relationship. They can try for baby once they move in together, and have multiple children before marriage, but once they have a child they must stay together and try to get married.
  • Children must stay with parents until they are young adults. When they are old enough to move out, they must choose a mate and move in with them. Unless they are the last blue child in which case they will take their parents house. I will do a rotational play style to encourage the blue descendants to have more children.
  • Challenge is complete when all houses in all three neighborhoods contain at least 3 blue or teal people.
