Originally, pets can give a birth of up to 4 puppies or kitten:
  • 15% chance of 1 offspring,
  • 35% chance of of 2 offspring,
  • 35% chance of of 3 offspring,
  • 15% chance of of 4 offspring.
This mod reduces the number of new-born pets and there are 2 versions of it:
  • 25-50-25-0:
    • 25% chance of 1 offspring,
    • 50% of 2,
    • 25% of 3,
    • no chance of 4.
  • 50-50-0-0:
    • 50% chance of 1 offspring,
    • 50% of 2,
    • no chance of 3,
    • no chance of 4.
Use only one version at a time.
If a pet got pregnant before you have installed this mod, that pregnancy won't be affected.
Update (20 Oct 2024): Made the tuning more user friendly.
Tuning
You can change the chances by editing the behavior constant of the selected file in SimPe.

The chance of 4 offspring is implied by the other chances. For example, if you set a 30% chance of 1 offspring, 40% of 2, and 20% of 3, then the chance of 4 offspring is 100% - 30% - 40% - 20% = 10%.

After you have modified the file, remember to change its name to avoid confusion in the future.

a mod that changes the number of new-born pets, e.g. Larger Litters by Midge the TreeDon't use it with my mod.
Bigger Families by CyjonUse with caution. My mod must load after the conflicting mod.You need to edit your userStartup.cheat file to change the family size limits, as my mod does not ignore them.
