I'm kindof embarassed to say on this forum... but I also was using the editor with v1. I had it so most of my villagers were about the same age. They would get old and die in big groups. I would let enough die so that there was less than 65. At this point they would breed like crazy. This would boost the population up. Then (muah ha ha) AFTER a bunch were born, but BEFORE they had a chance to bury their dead, I'd resurect them. At this point (as long as more were born than burried)I would have a population greater than 65. Each time I did this, the populaiton would increase buy howevermany more were born than burried... I had a population of 99 for quite a while. VS handled it pretty well. It never crashed
