It shouldn't be possible to for a wife to ask her husband for a donation even if it's not autonomous. Do you have the error log?

Hi, kestrellyn! I also had a strange occurrence at a party. Upon influencing a teenage boy (with typical reproductive capabilities, in a game with no teen pregnancy) to appreciate his teen female friend (also with typical reproductive capabilities), he found himself pregnant with her baby.
After looking around online, I have a suspicion of what could be going on. Midgethetree had to update a lot of her mods so that they didn't fall under the fight category for the purposes of influence. This was done by editing the Selector Sub-Category in the OBJD.
I took a look at the OBJD for the Maxis Social - Appreciate - Admire, and sure enough, it has the same Selector Sub-Category value as your sperm donor social object- 0x0002. I think fixing it would be as simple as changing this to 0, but I'm not terribly knowledgeable, so take that with a grain of salt.
Anyway, thank you for this mod, it's been a great addition to my game!

Hmm, yeah, that could be the problem. I've made the change, we'll see if that fixes it.

Thank you so much for this mod, it's awesome! I'm just wondering, is the sperm donor supposed to still show up as the baby's father in the family tree? And if not, do you know how I can correct this? Thanks again!

No, they shouldn't. If they do, you either did not install namethefatherhack or you have a conflict.

heyy, first of all, thanks for making this mod! i just want to let you know and for anybody that comes here and has the same problem. i think i found a possible conflict with the mod Wild Child by Darkwolf Jr.

when i had that mod installed as soon as my sim showed her first bump her partner got furious at her and thought the pregnant sim "cheated" on her even though they both had the sperm donor memory. i tried checking on hcdu for any conflicts but it didn't find anything, so i had to manually remove any mods i thought could conflict and tested the game a few times and it wasn't until i removed Wild Child that the problem was fixed.

i have no idea what could be the specific conflict tho but i guess it must have something to do with the teen pregnancy options of Wild Child.

Question: Is the donor Sim (and their relatives) flagged as family to the child?

No, but you can flag them manually if you want. I mainly don't want to have them flagged automatically because that would also impact the way Name the Father works, and I don't think you would necessarily always want them flagged automatically in that case since the point in a lot of situations is that the sims don't know the biological father.

Did... I do something wrong? The sperm donor appears on the family tree, even though I selected my SIm's wife as the second parent. Name the father showed the wife.



EDIT: Judging from comments on Name the Father, this isn't properly compatible with Chris Hatch's pregnancy controller

No, most pregnancy mods aren't.
