Creature Evolution I think this needs a little work in that the adults should not look like the newly evolved creature, just the newly hatched young should have the new features you 'purchased' while in the creature menu. I mean, all others already existed without them, and I don't think you can bend Darwin's theory that much as to say that when the new hatchlings grew that new set of arms or those new, meaner looking eyes, or changed colour even, that this effected the already existing creatures. :spin:
What's going on there is that you're not really making a single baby, but thousands of them over, say a million years. Evolution doesnt happen instantly in the next generation, it happens very gradually over millions of generations, so what the game is doing is skipping over that period and putting you ahead when those changes have taken place, therefor everyone else has changed as well. It would be a much greater stretch if the two 6 limbed yellow guys had a baby that had 7 limbs and was blue.
And.. Humans should not be able to catch on fire and survive for several hours... (As done in The Sims 2. By several hours, I mean sim hours). Vampires dont really exist.. and nither do Zombies. These games aren't meant to be entirely accurate.. They are meant to entertain, yes education is something Will talked about.. however, there has to be a point when education has to blend with entertainment and time is a factor.. I personally dont want to wait millions of years for my species to evolve..
