I'm curious, is there a setting somewhere that is contributing to the obscene number of female offspring during the breeding process? And probably the spawning of new dinos as well. We are seeing a highly disproportionate number of female to male offspring. Each mating we attempt, the offspring is overwhelmingly female, and we've only successfully bred a small handful of males, and have unclaimed or let die an untold dearth of females. Are we doing something wrong, missing some essential part of the breeding process that determines the gender of offspring? Thanks in advance for any tips or advice.

So far as I know it's all RNG, and I guess you're just not rolling many natty 20s.

attica: Hey Dewfus!! Tysm for info, I looked all over forum for latest addresses

I left my 80-something Survivor on Ragnarok, can we transfer our toons to AB or just start afresh? Very Happy to be Baaack! Jan 17, 2018 16:25:34 GMT -5

attica: Ty 7Cav! Good to know. Having the old 'make sure server is running latest versions of mods' mismatch and AB's address shows as 'not responding' in steam! I'm going to have to play a solo game at this rate, just to soothe the withdrawal!
