Aithalis is an insane place. Our posts are made of spam, multiple personalities running amok, and pie. Though this forum was founded as a Creatures fan forum, it has expanded to become more multi-purpose, particularly to the gaming audience.

I'm doing a wolfing/feral run for a science fair project. I had 3 of my baby norns die from gen 1 (2 stillbirths, 1 died from unknown causes at 10 minutes). I wanted to find out -why- this happened by looking at their genetics. What genes should I look at first? What commonly causes norns to be stillborn, or die young (NOT disease, genetic stuffs)?

Any help and suggestions are greatly appreciated Smile

By the way, can anyone think of a way I could have an agent(s) that would collect all eggs and NOT hatch them until I told it to, even if all norns are dead? This would be awesome! (I'm using the Eggonicer, but that will automatically lay eggs after all norns die if I set the minimum population to 1)

EDIT: This is DEVELOPMENT related because I'm going to make breeds out of my end results of 2 wolfing runs. Just so you know.

I have no idea on the stillborns. I've lost baby norns also that way, and have never understood why. I always attributed it to some genetic defect.

About eggs: why not put them in your inventory? I do that all the time, as they can't hatch in there. Razz

Maybe then I should check the number of genes, then compare the brain genes to a normal norn to see if that was it.

I'm using only Siamese norns.

There's nothing else I can think of other than a genetic defect.

If I did that, I'd have to sit and watch my norns the whole time. I want something that will do it automatically, so I can leave the computer.

Only thing I can think of to stop eggs hatching without being at your computer is to set the breeding level to zero. Norns can still lay eggs even that way. Trouble is, it isn't infinite. At some point, they stop laying. I don't know what the threshold number is.

There isn't a fan-made breeding kit for C3? I know there's one for DS.

That thing doesn't really help me right now, but it is cool ^_^

I'm thinking about making all my norns fast agers so I can do this quicker >.< My computer is such crap that I've had to start the experiment over twice already!
