As the title says, does anyone have any tips for creating less fertile creatures in C3/DS? I don't want to make them sterile but to have them be about 25% as fertile as they normally are. I would also like to dampen their friendliness a little bit, but not lower it as drastically as the fertility. |

Have you tried giving them a longer pregnancy? My TCR Norns |

It seems to work quite differently from C1 breeding - I love the way with those, the female could kisspop anywhere through the cycle but was only fertile for part of it; it was infuriating at times, if you wanted to a particular couple to breed, but meant the egg number wasn't so high. C3DS seems designed so the norns aren't even interested in breeding unless there's an almost-certainty of getting a pregnancy out of it. I wonder if the mechanics of that could be tampered with, so that sex drive isn't so dependent on fertility? |

There might be a few ways, but I haven't messed with them myself: slowing down with reaction rate on the sex drive creation(gene 208), slowing down the pheromone emitters(genes 216 and 217), and the last way I can think of would be lowering the amount of arousal potential they get by editing gene 468. I might have to try out the last one actually, the genetic breed I'm working on breeds like rabbits. O.o The Mobula Ray - My Creatures blog |

This might be useful. @Nutter: The main thing I can think of is to turn off the libido lowerer emitter (#218) so it doesn't destroy sex drive when the creature's infertile, but it'd probably take more changes than that to really get an "anytime" sex drive. |

Thanks for the link! The problem seems to be with arousal potential being switched on by fertility - maybe decoupling that would work? Or having it be controlled by something else? That would then reduce libido lowerer as normal and still be around to produce sex drive by interaction with pheremones. Edited to add: Cancel that thought, I've just read further through that document and am now more confused!  I'm going to have to come back to this when I'm more awake, I think. |

I've started working on a breed who is short lived and only fertile during the adult stage. So far it looks like it may have worked too well. |
