Couldn't help myself, I just had a quick look in game. It does look beautiful, the lamps give everything such a warm glow.

Yes, that's what I thought. Once you made it to being 'old' you could probably get quite a lot older. The problem was getting to the 'being old' stage.

We should totally have some sort of mod that gives you a dialogue at birth like with the trips and quads hack, except it should say 'Let mother survive, let mother die, or random.' Same for the baby. And one for when babies age up to toddlers 'Age, die, or random.' That is, of course, if it were at all possible to mod the game so that babies could die. Maybe I should make a request at Simbology some time, even if it's just to find out for sure if it could be done or not.
