1. What the circumstances were.

I started a game with EdB Prepare Carefully with 3 characters. Two female twins and a third female, all of whom have the gay trait.

2. What happened.

Initially, the game gave each sister a bonus to their relationship due to them being sisters. One of them entered into a relationship with the third female. Eventually, that relationship ended and then the twins entered into a relationship. At that point, I checked whether they were still getting the sister bonus and they were not. I'm not sure if this is mod related or not, since it's possible to start with this set of circumstances, but randomly getting these traits would be very rare, hence it's hard to test without mods. It also took multiple hours of gameplay to happen.

3. What you expected to happen.

I expected the twins to continue to have the sister bonus, regardless of whether they are in a relationship or not. It's possible that the bonus is still tracked, but isn't shown in the UI since they're already at the max relationship value. That however, would just make it a UI bug. I'm going to ignore the question of whether incest makes for a better story or not.

4. Steps we can follow to make the bug appear on our machine.

Given that this took hours to happen, I'm not sure how to easily provide steps. But I'm providing the save file and if the two pawns that should be twins no longer have that relationship, I'll hope that's enough.

Hmm, looks like their parents disappeared, and that's why they're no longer siblings. Not sure why this happened though.

edit: It would be difficult to tell what happened anyway. I think we can close this thread and simply see if it happens again in A18 with more info. Thanks for reporting.
