FT and super fertility
eevilcat:
I've been playing with FT installed and thought that I'd try out the super fertility lifetime aspiration benefit with a couple of family sims. I gave both of them the 'benefit' and played a few pregnancies out of curiosity and it looks like EAxis have implemented it in a slightly arse about face way. I've got ACR installed so I can track the progression of each pregnancy.
Pregnancy no1 - single conception, twins birth (WTF? At this point I started paying more attention to the pregnancy stats.)
Pregnancy no2 - single conception, single birth
Pregnancy no3 - single conception, single birth
Pregnancy no4 - single conception, twin birth (pregnancy switched from single to twins at second? stomach pop)
Pregnancy no5 - single conception, single birth
Pregnancy no6 - single conception, twins birth (pregnancy switched from single to twins at first stomach pop)
So it looks like EAxis are rerolling the twins odds at each stomach pop. My overall odds may be slightly higher due to twins and triplets being installed, but I'm going with the original chances which I believe are game default (not the mod overrides).
Is this consistent with others people's experiences so far?
geekgirl:
That would explain why out of 16 conceptions to family aspiration sims, I got 0 twins at conception. I just assumed it was broken and fed everyone with that reward cheesecake...
Zazazu:
I haven't been keeping track of the stats at each pop, but I've had a deluge of twins. I have ACR set to 8% twin odds. Only one sim used the LTA twin benefit.
Of course, it could just be my RAMZ.
J. M. Pescado:
It seems reasonable enough to me. I mean, that sort of thing happens in real life, too. But again, it seems like a totally useless perk, given that the ability to have twins on demand already exists, and basically, all the Family perks above level 2 are totally and completely worthless, meaning there is no reason now to ever choose it as anything other than a secondary.

Hell, try level one. Comfort soup? The hell? Given that odds are they're going to sit down to eat it they're about to get themselves come 'comfort' anyway. It would only really impress me if it imparted comfort when you threw it onto a sim ("Ah! I am warm and soaking wet! But oddly comfortable..."). I just fail to see how it's much of a benefit item. Sure, a sim might be really uncomfortable after gardening for hours, but... just go sit down a minute! There are so many more benefits that could actually *benefit* a Fam sim. I mean, increased odds of getting a runaway teen or pet back, slower relationship decay with immediate and/or extended family, quicker potty training/teach to study, allow families to grow past 8 sims on the lot... but no, food that makes you feel like you're sitting down while you're sitting down to eat it? Meh, not impressed.
