Title: Generate male only/female only Townies Post by: bratz on 2006 May 31, 16:06:32 Good Morning!
Is there any way to have the option that when making a new neighborhood, to generation only male townies or only female townies? I do like the Visitor controller, but i would love to create a neighborhood with just one sex. Thank you to all :) Title: Re: Generate male only/female only Townies Post by: jrd on 2006 May 31, 18:33:07 No option to do this automatically. You'll have to generate all townies one by one to make sure they're of one gender only.

Title: Re: Generate male only/female only Townies Post by: jrd on 2006 May 31, 20:32:58 Generate all townies ignores the options, those are only used for individual townie generating (make townie).

thanks Title: Re: Generate male only/female only Townies Post by: jrd on 2006 May 31, 21:04:33 The tree is one of Maxis' debugging tools. Do a search on this forum for townie generating for detailed info.
Title: Re: Generate male only/female only Townies Post by: nectere on 2006 May 31, 21:05:54 when you are in debug mode (boolprop testingcheatsenabled true) and you shift click on a sim you can spawn an npc townie maker, which looks like a dead tree. (just like the one at the crypto club downtown) So once that tree is spawned you can make townies/npcs/vampires/grand vampires etc. You can also set the gender beforehand, but I guess apparently it only lets you spawn one at a time that way (with gender chosen as previously stated)
Title: Re: Generate male only/female only Townies Post by: jrd on 2006 May 31, 21:35:03 Oh, it will /allow/ you to fine-tune the settings always, but even if you select S1 male teen if you use any of the generate all functions it will ignore all these settings. Settings are only checked when you generate townies or NPCs one-by-one.
For NPCs I suggest ALWAYS using 'smart age', and keep in mind males can't be nannies nor females repo men etc.. Title: Re: Generate male only/female only Townies Post by: bratz on 2006 June 01, 00:43:21 thank you for the nice reply. :D
I am really interested in this and will try it. Thank you all for you help! |
