Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? Русский язык
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.56.52.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Make a large family with at least 6 generations.
What happens when the bug occurs? When the 6th generation sim borns, it will not recognize any relatives above grandparents (so, only 3 generations). They are just cut from sim's family tree. However, ALL other sims above recognize all 6 generations. Moreover, 6th generation sims also don't recognize any relatives above grandparents, thus having all romantic options available for grand-grandparents and above.
What do you expect to see? The family trees should be displayed properly for all family members, The romantic relationships between close relatives should not normally be allowed.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
I am playing a large mages dynasty atm. It now has 6 generations, and as mages can be immortal and there are also some vampires within the dynasty, all 6 generations are now "alive" at the same time. The sad thing is, the sims of the 6th generation ignore everyone above grandparents, their family trees are "cut".
And they can flirt and everything with their grand-grandparents and above.
The dynasty from the 5th generation perspective:

It's unfortunately by design that great grandchildren can have romantic interactions with their great grandparent, our incest checks just don't go back that far. I'd call this more of a feature request, not a bug, pretty sure it's always been this way.

1t, 2d, and 3d generations have romantic interactions with 6th. There could be a limit but somehow all generations but 6th see the whole family tree, so the problem occurs from the "bottom" of the tree. Something wrong with this specific number of generations. Because the difference between 6th and 3d is the same as between 2d and 5th (and so on), but only 6th has the problem.
