As is the nature of genetics, what pups receive is determined by the genes of the breeding pair.Ī litter born to one black parent and one gray parent has a relatively even split with a 50% chance of producing gray (kk) pups and a 50% chance of producing black (Kk) pups. The more disease-resistant, the less chance it has of falling ill. In the Anniversary Edition, pups' genotypes are determined before birth and will influence disease resistance. Even if they were a sickly pup grown into a playable adult, an adult wolf is always immune to diseases and presents no lingering symptoms. A gray coat that never changes from the black genotype does so because it is based on a black wolf during its elderly years as is the case for 42F 'Cinderella' from the Founders set and 192M 'White Wolf of Yellowstone' from the Cool Coats set among others.Īn adult wolf with the KK gene (whether it was a pup matured into adulthood or random luck during customization) will produce all-black litters. On the other hand, every gray coat will be considered black if tinted darkly enough.Ī 'white' coat, light gray coat, or most coats with a predominantly gray base is almost always considered 'genetic gray'. For instance, a high-gray tinted Original Black coat used to be be considered gray up until 1.1.0, though this doesn't apply to every single black coat the majority will always be considered 'genetic black' no matter how lightly or darkly the coat is tinted. Only the gray-black slider affects a wolf's genotype the brown-orange slider does nothing to change it. In the Anniversary Edition, adult wolves' genotypes will vary depending on their base coat texture and tinting.
