How does the "always pairs with" rule work?

Our latest rule pairs traits in groups of two or more.

The "always pairs with" rule ensures that multiple traits always appear together, and never separate. The rule can be used to group two or more traits, and if a trait has a “pairs with” rule, then it will never appear by itself.

How is this rule different to the “Only mixes with” rule?

The "only mixes with" rule isn't as strict. It does not guarantee that two (or more) traits will always appear together as it only works left-to-right.

Only mixes with:

  • Blurple Color Background will only appear with Purple Body

  • Purple Body may appear with any other Color Background

  • Purple Body may appear without a Color Background

Always pairs with:

  • Blurple Color Background will only appear with Purple Body

  • Purple Body will only appear with Color Background

How does the rule affect rarity?

If a trait is paired to another then the chance of it getting picked is equal to the rarity of either traits getting picked. That's statistics at work! As a result, a trait that has a low rarity % (very rare) may become more common (less rare) if it has been paired with a trait of higher rarity.

However, if any of the traits has a fixed quantity, then paired traits will be limited to the lowest fixed value.

Help

If your tokens are failing to generate or you notice rules aren’t behaving then we have some things you can do to help isolate the problem.

Check your rules

Use our rule analysis tool (Manage > Rules > Analyze Rules) to make sure you don’t have any conflicting rules. It’s very easy to create rules that conflict, but we try our best to find these for you.

You can also try removing rules one at a time to find which one is causing the generation to fail. You can always re-add it after.

Traits and templates

If you’re using fixed trait or template quantities, then make sure you have allocated enough traits. A template will not be used if it cannot satisfy “always pair with” rules.

Trait rarity also plays an important role. If your traits are too rare, or you have the overall attribute rarity set less than 100% it’s possible the generator will never pick your traits.
