Notes | Note that the Child Descendant Indicator Mod must be installed in conjunction with the Family Indicators Mod to display the + sign for children with descendants. |
Purpose of the mod
This mod adds
- a ^ (caret) sign for parents and spouses who have ancestors, and
- the > (greater than) sign for children who are married but have no descendants.
This mod originally conflicted with the Child Descendant Indicator Mod which changes the > (greater than) sign indicator to a + (plus) sign, as a more intuitive indicator that the child has descendants.
The conflicting code was removed from this mod, but you now must install the Child Descendant Indicator Mod in order to get the + (plus sign) for children with descendants.
Developer
This mod was developed by Jeff Robison.
Conflicts with the Child Descendant Indicator Mod and the Age Calculation Mod were resolved by Ken Roy
