When moving ZOIs between families, the family list itself completely disappears. It wasn’t like this before, but this issue started occurring right after the latest update. I have been deeply enjoying “Legacy Play.”
Let’s say there are Family A and Family B. Family A has 2 adults and 3 children, while Family B has 1 teenager and 4 children. Suppose I want to send 1 adult from Family A to Family B and move 1 teenager from Family B to Family A. I click the “Move ZOI between Families” button, select the adult in Family A and the teenager in Family B, and use the arrow to move them. But then, ta-da! Family B just vanishes entirely after the move.
Previously, I could move family members simply and easily. Now, I have to constantly calculate and make sure there are always at least two adults left in a household before moving anyone.
There is another problem. Suppose Family C has 1 teenager and 7 children, and Family D has 1 teenager and 6 children. I want to swap the teenagers between Family C and Family D. This is now impossible. The moment I try to exchange them, both Family C and Family D disappear at the same time.
I now have families that I can never move or edit again. While playing Legacy, I used the “waiting family list” very effectively. I would often split many offspring into waiting families and take turns growing them up one by one. Now, I honestly don’t know how to even continue my Legacy Play.
If this is a bug, please fix this. If this was an intended change, I think it should be reverted to its original state. While the convenience of the movement feature itself was a good idea, but now, I can’t solve a “RIVER CROSSING RIDDLE” every single time I want to swap family members.
