Duplicate Birth Fact

Post by TMG_refugee » 18 Aug 2021 22:54

I want to experiment with altering the birth fact and I was hoping that I could create a duplicate in my Custom Fact list. It will allow it but it is "eclipsed" and "disabled". Also the order of fact sets seems to put all my custom facts much lower than the standard fact set.

How can I do this without overwriting the original fact?

Tools > Fact Types...

Click on Fact Sets...

Re-order as required. Duplicate facts in the highest rank set will take priority, so put Custom at the top. The standard Birth fact will be safely stored, but eclipsed by your duplicate until you delete it or re-order the fact sets.

Mark,
Such a simple solution. I thought ranking might affect that
