==Family Size and Interactions==
Up to 8 [[Zoi]]s can live as a single family/household. If the family is already at eight, new [[pregnancies]] automatically fail. The developers noted that "someone in your family would have to [[die]]" before another Zoi could be added to that household.


Family or group interactions in [[Early Access]] are somewhat basic. For example, a [[child]] can ask a [[parent]] to [[cook]] [[food]] or do [[laundry]], emphasizing that little kids would not naturally handle those [[tasks]] themselves. While they hope to expand cooperative or group/family gameplay, only limited forms of it are initially present.
In [[inZOI]], a [[Family]], also referred to as a [[Household]], is a group of [[Zois]] living together. Families are central to gameplay, involving managing [[relationships]], [[life stages]], and household composition.


==Pregnancy and Newborns==
==Household (Family) Size==
* [[Pregnancy]] interactions: [[Zoi]]s can announce pregnancies, hold [[parties]], experience [[cravings]], etc.
A single [[family]] / [[household]] can contain up to 8 [[Zois]]. If a household is already at the maximum of 8 Zois, new [[pregnancies]] will automatically fail. To add a new Zoi (through birth or other means) to a full household, the developers noted that "someone in your family would have to [[die]]" first.
* [[Newborn]] gameplay: Limited at launch, but more baby-related interactions are planned for future updates. 
* Technical challenges: [[Infant]]s have a unique body structure requiring special animations.


==Giving Birth and Parenting==
==Managing Families==
After your [[Zoi]] becomes pregnant. After 3 days, the result of their love, a [[baby]], will be born. [[Babies]] cannot do much on their own, so be sure to surround them with love and care from the [[family]] to help them grow up healthy.
Players have several tools to create and modify [[families]]/[[households]].


==Family Activities==
===Creating a New Family===
[[File:add_a_new_family1.png|thumb|300px|right|Adding a new family via the Edit City screen.]]
To start a completely new family:
#Access the [[Edit City]] screen (via the [[Map]], press [M], or initial game setup).
#Click on any empty [[house]] / [[lot]].
#A '''Select Family''' button will appear. Click it.
#Choose to either:
#*Move in a [[pre-made household]] from the [[family presets]].
#*Click '''Create New Family''' to design your own Zois in [[Create A Zoi]].


==Add A New Family==
===Editing Existing Families===
To create a new [[family]], on the [[Edit City]] screen, click on any empty [[house]] or [[property]] and the [[Select Family]] button will appear.
Family composition can be changed after creation using the [[Smartphone]].


You can move in a [[household]] from the family presets, or click [[Create New Family]] to make your own. Add a new family and continue building your dream life in the city.
====Adding Members====
To add a new Zoi to an existing family (up to the 8-Zoi limit):
# Open the [[Smartphone]].
# Go to the [[City Map]] app or press '''[M]'''.
# Select the household/family you wish to edit.
# Choose the ''''Add Family Member' ''' option.
# This will take you to the [[Create A Zoi]] screen to design the new Zoi.
#*Note: You can make minor edits to existing Zois from this screen, but the options are far more limited than the initial character creation.


====Setting Relationships====
* When adding new members via the 'Add Family Member' process described above, you can click the [[Relationships]] button within that screen.
* This allows you to define how the newly created Zoi relates to the existing members (e.g., [[roommate]], [[partner]], [[child]], [[parent]]).
* Settable relationship types include:
**[[Roommate]]
**[[Partner]] / [[Husband]] / [[Wife]]
**[[Father]] / [[Mother]]
**[[Son]] / [[Daughter]]
*'''Important:''' You '''cannot''' change the pre-existing relationships of Zois who were already in the family using this method.


====Moving Zois Between Families (Splitting/Merging)====
[[File:InZOI - Move Zois Between Families Button.png|thumb|300px|right|The 'Move Zois Between Families' option in the Manage Family tab.]]
[[File:InZOI - Transfer Family Members.png|thumb|300px|right|Selecting Zois and assets to transfer between families.]]
To move [[Zois]] between two existing [[households]], effectively splitting or merging them:
#Open the [[Smartphone]].
#Go to the [[City Map]] app or press '''[M]'''.
#Access the '''Manage Zois''' section.
#Navigate to the '''Manage Family''' tab.
#Select the ''''Move Zois Between Families' ''' option.
#Choose up to two families to manage transfers between.
#Select the specific Zois you wish to move from one family to the other.
#You can manually decide how much of the household assets ([[Meow]]) are transferred with the moving Zois.
#*Note: Leaving a newly formed or split-off family with no assets may prevent them from buying a [[house]] if they don't already own one.
#*Tip: You can use the '''Create a Temporary Family''' option within this tool to act as a temporary holding place for Zois during complex reorganizations involving multiple households.
*Changing family members this way does not affect their surnames.
*This is the primary method for having unmarried Zois live together as roommates, as the social interaction to [[Ask to Move In]] typically only appears for married or engaged Zois.


[[Category:Character]]
====Removing Members====
*There is no direct 'delete' button for Zois outside of [[Death|in-game death]].
*To remove a Zoi from a specific active household, use the ''''Move Zois Between Families' ''' tool (described above) to move them into a different household (either another existing one or a temporary/unused one you create for this purpose).
 
==Family Life Stages & Interactions==
===Marriage and Divorce===
*Zois can enter into '''[[Marriage]]'''.
*The option for '''[[Divorce]]''' also exists.
 
===Pregnancy and Birth===
[[File:birth_and_parenting1.png|thumb|350px|right|Caring for a newborn baby is an important part of family life.]]
[[Pregnancy]] last for 3 days.
Pregnant Zois experience various interactions and states:
*Announcing the pregnancy.
*Holding [[Parties|pregnancy parties]].
*Experiencing food [[Cravings]].
After 3 days, the [[baby]] ([[newborn]]) is born.
[[Babies]] and [[toddler]]s have limited gameplay interactions initially in [[Early Access]] but require care ([[feeding]], [[changing]], [[affection]]) from family members to grow up healthy.
*More baby-related interactions are planned for future updates.
*Developers noted technical challenges related to infants' unique body structures requiring special animations.
 
===Genetics===
{{see also|Genetics}}
[[File:genetics1.png|thumb|350px|right|Babies inherit traits and appearances from their parents.]]
When a [[baby]] is born, they inherit characteristics from their [[parents]]. This includes physical [[looks]] (like [[hair]]/[[eye color]], [[facial features]]) and potentially [[Traits]] and [[Skills]].
 
===Family Interactions===
[[Family]] or group interactions in [[Early Access]] are somewhat basic. Examples include a [[Child]] asking a [[Parent]] to [[Cooking|cook]] [[Food|food]] or do [[Laundry]]. Developers hope to expand cooperative or group/family gameplay features in future updates.
