Thanks again in all the help to did in getting my VV2 back. And I am already a member of the forums and "love" all the "peeps" on here.
When I started the game, I got 2 adult runners, 1 builder and 1 farmer. When I mated them, I got another runner.
My 1st 2 kids at the start didn't like "learning" in their skills. So I mated them and the kids turned out as "dumb" as the parents. I'm going to keep "mating" both the runners and the "dumb" parents and have 1/2 "runners" and 1/ 2 "dummies."
