No outsiders available anywhere on map

[clivemorrowind]

My entire clan died except for two children and a female elder. Her heroics are now stuff of legend, having survived all the way to the savannah and back with two children, finding most locations on the way - 25 hours of hardcore survival and near death escapes. I really don't want to abandon this game yet I cannot find any outsiders anywhere, despite a very extensive search. Obviously, without an adult other than an elder, I cannot skip generation, but I want her legacy to live on! Does anyone know of any locations / events etc that spawn new outsiders? I have changed camp around 20 times and no one ever shows up, except a freaking cat whenever I finally think I can take a rest... Are there any key / console commands in this game that can spawn outsiders? Of course I could just start again, but I really want these two children I've been carrying for so long to grow up!

New outsiders spawn after a Generation Leap or an Evolution Leap.

You can do either of those with only 2 babies and an elder.

Thanks very much for the reply - I thought I had tried everything, there was no option to advance a generation, it seems that with only an elder it is locked out. I went back to the evolution tree which had not offered me the chance to evolve before, but after I clicked through all the feats I had acquired, it offered me the chance to evolve. It seem they have to be viewed before the option is activated! Fortunately my 35 feats was sufficient to advance, and immediately I found a male and female outsider just outside the new location, so all sorted and "Grannyma" who clocked up something like 30 hours in the end of legging it all the way to the savannah and back to the starting oasis in a desperate attempt to find some company, can finally retire to a very well earned rest. Thanks for inspiring me to look again at the evolution tree, I thought I had to pass a few generations before I was able to evolve...

I've gotten to a point where Evolution Leap was not possible as it would end the game and no adults available to do Generation Leap. Either of the "leaps" are not necessary to find new hominids.

The best way to find new hominids is create a settlement and waste time for a while. They will begin to appear just outside of view after some real life time passes, sleeping didn't seem to work. So create several pointy sticks, make more beds, leave the game be unpaused at your encampment, as long as it's safe to do so, then use your hearing detection a short ways away from your settlement and you'll find some new guys. On average about 10 minutes gave me a new hominid to recruit.
