Population overhaul

The first thing that has to be done in order for this event line and to meet the overall goals of this expansion is an expansion and refinement of the kingdom management system. So, this will mean a breakdown of population, first the population will be broken down into three categories: Senior, adult and youth. From here the population will be broken down again to male and female. Now, this is where things get a bit confusing so try to stick with me here. So, each group of people (both male and female) will be placed into weekly groups (1-12) each week there will be a counter that checks off these groups, once a group has reached its 12th check it will then move the adults in that group to a senior group or if they are a youth they will be moved to an adult group. If they already are a senior they will die, removing them from the population. On each weekly check if their group is under week check 9 the women of this group will have a chance to become ‘pregnant’ (this chance is dependent on the male to female ratio of your kingdom, research and laws you will be able to pass). Once pregnant a timer will start, after four weeks the group’s pregnant women will give birth, these births will then be added to the youth group with the lowest week count. The number of births will be split 50/50 between male and female. This is the basics for how population will grow and adapt over time, this sounds complex but as the player this really won’t affect your gameplay as leaving it on its own it’ll do fine, but for those who want to have a extra challenge or whatever can take full advantage of this system to help improve their population. Anyhow, that's how I plan on overhauling the population. I'll work on this in the background of updates as this is quite complex and something that won’t be a focal point of the game for quite some time. If anyone has any ideas on how I could do this system let me know, I’d love to hear more ideas.
