Can someone please post a screenshot from the genealogy? I might have a bug

[Swjosdotschka]

Hey there fellow gamers,

when I look at the genealogy of my animals, it only shows genetic identity under fertility gene and immunity gene. None under the others. But there is a guide on reddit that says every animal has 60 genes in game, so I wonder if some just don't show for me.

Can you share screenshots on how it looks with your animals? Thank you!

I don't have a screenshot, but it's the same for me. I was just assuming the first set ties into size, longevity, and fertility; while the 2nd set is just for immunity

It's the same for me as well.

Thank you! Looking at the genes the reddit article can't be right. Seems like the genetic system isn't figured out yet.

I'm pretty sure that post from reddit is old. I remember seeing it a while ago before the genealogy tab was introduced.

The post from reddit is indeed old, but if anyone understand how the genealogy works, it would be great !

I'm guessing the other stats also have similar genetic information, just not visible in-game. I wish they were though. Supposedly, according to the reddit user who looked into the code, there is one for color, too, but not visible in-game. Probably what determines if animal is albino.

I GOT IT ! Well, I think I got it (tested it on 12 animals), and it's not I, it's m'y boyfriend with some explanation of someone from reddit.

For example, let's take this :

Fertility = 67%
AD DD BB BC CB BB

The first 3 duets correspond to a parent (didn't test which one yet, I copied the datas on a notebook and I did it while eating ), and the last 3 to the other parent.

Which means we have actually :
AD DD BB
BC CB BB

Now count vertically. A and B (first letter of each parents) are differents, so 0, but B and B (last letter of each parent) is equal, so 2 identical letter

AD DD BB
BC CB BB
00 00 22

Add all of this, you have : 4 similarities.

Now the percentage of fertility of this animal is :
1 - (4 similar letter / 12 letters in total) = 0.6666 which is 67% !!!


The reasoning is the same for the immunity of this same animal :
Immunity = 17%
AC CA AD AC CC AD

Which is :
AC CA AD
AC CC AD
22 20 22

Add this, you have : 10
And : 1-(10/12) = 0.17 so 17%

Honestly, I hope this matches your animals, I'm gonna test this with the animals you shared in comments !

EDIT :
@heatherg23 It maches for your screenshot too =D

EDIT 2 :
The reddit user explained further after I posted this, so here is the link :

Okay, that makes sense.Cool, good job! But what is it with longlivity and size then then? I have a lot of animals where those three stats are different. How is it count there?

 

[felinora99]

I can't see the genome for the size and longitivity, so I can't evaluate it, but the game explains in the little help that these stats are based on similarity (large parents will make large babies), while fertility and immunity are based on diversity (as we saw, the parents must have different genes). I would love to be able to see these genes, it would truly help me as my animals always end up being too small
