Notes


In unmodded RimWorld, animals will absolutely refuse to have incest - and incest is very loosely defined, including for example cousins twice removed.

The problem with this is that at some point you'll run out of viable breeding stock, and will either have to micro manage breeding (tedious) or continously buy new breeding stock (expensive).

In reality, most animals will avoid incest, but when there's no other options available they will still interbreed.

I'd like to work breeding into a system more closely resembling the real world (e.g. inbred animals being more disease prone, weaker, etc.) - but given the way the game works that's a tricky task. So instead, I've just removed all the incest flags for animals, so animals will now happily breed with whomever is closest.

*: The mod is literally one foreach loop changing all 'incestForAnimals' flags in PawnRelationDefs to false.
