OK, here's my list:

1) let us "marry" certain couples.
I get so frustrated in trying to get certain couples together because all the women automatically go after the oldest guy (ick) and all the men automatically go after the youngest "breedable" woman (also ick) by default. When you try to get the villager's breeding skills up, you end up with one VERY busy woman and one VERY busy man. Very frustrating that they won't keep picking the same villager that we are telling them to pick.

2) Show a villager's lineage.
I'd LOVE to be able to look up a villager and know who his/her parents were. Who made whom, ya know? I'd also like it if the villagers tended to pass on their traits so that I could breed into my population certain looks. IE - blond parents are more likely to have blond kids. The only downside of this is that since there are only a couple of parental units to start out the game, knowing the lineage would point out some incest type relationships. LOL!

3) fix the mushroom bug. If I can see a mushroom - I want to be able to put a kid on it and know that the kid will get it. I hate all the mushrooms that go unharvested because the kids ignore them after I put them on them.

4) allow us to tell a villager to specifically NOT do something. IE - if they have skills in building and in farming and you have the check mark on farming, they will mostly do farming, but they will also break off and do some building stuff from time to time. I'd like to be able to tell them to NOT do some things.

5) I'd like a way to keep track of specific villager's accomplishments. IE - farming: 403 berries, 538 vegies, 84 fish, 5 crabs. Healing: 47 people

Thanks,
Robyn
