I am sorry I put my nose in this one
But was worried naturally as I also am doing the foreverprojects of shareable hoods
And I also run the game with empty environment and with all possible noregen mods
And I was wondering, after all, those templates, Jawusas and Tarlias before hers have been here for a long time, and just now we see this? (then again I never adopt babies, only toddlers, sho never seen this )
I ran tests in 4 different hoods, 2 from here and 2 of my own, all made in empty environment, yes toddlers and children were allowed to adopt, no babies.
Made a second testfamily, used cheats to them get a baby fast, killed the parents and then testfamily nro#1 was able to adobt the baby. Just one, tried to adopt second baby and then again , no.
Then I ran the game in debugmode from the start, started over, testfamily nro#1 got an error when selected the baby option and again the car vanished. But there was a line in the errornote "Get random townie parents"
So then testfamily nro#2, 2 adults, male and female, with teleport cat made one as a townie and the other as downtownie (and I did not have actual downtown even added as these were testhoods) ... Ran once again testfamily nro#1.. they happily adopted 5 more babies (now there came the box to choose a name, like in normal birth, I assume biological parents of all 5 babies were the townie male and downtownie female).
So, for me it looks like to have possible to adopt a baby you need at least 2 townies/downtownies, male and female (might do with same sex, I did not tested that, or vacationhood townies might also do the trick, if you install any of the maxis destinations without empty templates you get the townies), and maybe this is the reason we never knew this before, just maybe there were nobody before now with no townies and downtownies at all (or no babies ever token by social worker) who tried to adopt a baby?
EDIT: so. looks pretty sure there is nothing wrong at your templates @Jawusa
