They already inherit some of the skills, stats and traits. Only thing that isn't inherited are the image sets.

I think it should be great if you can name your child when its born.
in the dungeon it will be easier to find them 8)

Only if they have some way of restricting the naming thing to girls who are the player's daughter. I tend to have a... breeding farm...

Request for nameable children and the option to restrict it to player offspring only logged to the bug tracker.

If we do renaming, anyone be interested in an option to rename your slaves?

Meh.  Makes no difference to me - it's a purely cosmetic change, but since it won't *hurt* anything, go nuts.

I don't care for renaming slaves... but naming your kids makes sense.

What? Are you ashamed? I have abreeding farm too.

And naming the girls would be interesting, but could get tiring...

I would like it to default to the existing names for unique girls and random names for random girls, but I'm not opposed to having the option to rename any of them.  If the nursery option gets implemented, that would be a good opportunity for the player to rename the kids.

Doc's all about adding options.  I guess this would be a pretty harmless one, if he's up to making it work.

Exactly. I don't want to do away with the existing names. I just rename the odd slave here and there, according to whim.

I intend, over time, to not only set up a breeding farm but to then use my daughters as a breeding farm as well, in order to develop Crossgate's only fully-staffed Flipper Baby Brothel.

(too much?)

EDIT TO ADD: Also, I'd like to add my vote to the "daughters can use the same picture set as their mother" chorus, if only because it makes no sense to me that I can have a kid with, say, Carrera and our daughter is a Cat Girl. Say wha?

While having daughters look identical to their mothers is an imperfect solution, it's probably the only really practical one.

I'll cast my vote for daughter's sharing their mother's image set since it makes more sense than the current method and most more logical alternatives are far less practical, but may I add that perhaps it should only be a chance (a high chance though, say 75-90%?) that they do share the image set, and, if possible, make the next generation of kids (the incest ones) have a low (maybe 15-25%) chance of sharing the image set (even if their mother didn't, you know recissive traits and all), though I may be getting a bit too complicated by now.

Hmm.... I'll look at adding some options to the config file for this. Probably a % chance of a random girl using her mother's pictures, and a second one for unique girls to do the same. Set 'em to zero, 100% or any point in between.

Probably not for the next release, but I'll add it to the tracker.

I don't know about the rest of you. But I'd rather the Unique girls childrens DID NOT share their picture. That'll just confuse me. But if it happens it happens.

That's why I was thinking we could set a % in the config file. If you don't want unique girls to share their mum's pictures, set it to 0% and it will never happen. And if you want it so that random girls should inherit their mothers' looks, set that one to 100% and they always will. Or any combination, with any probabilities in between.

In any case, it isn't happening soon. There's the 1.30 merge and the new buildings and jobs first.
