Theories Wanted: I'm trying to put together the exact connection between fans and subscribers.

Fans: As in the fans you accumulate when you first start a business.
Subscribers: People who pay to see your website.

Now I've played in cheat-mode before and discovered that adding a million fans almost instantly turns into a million subscribers overnight, so obviously there is a link where more fans = more subscribers, but in regular (fair) game play I've also boosted subscribers just by adding videos to the website, although more slowly it seems.

My question is this: Which is more efficient? Let's say I have five videos edited and ready to go. Would I get more subscribers by releasing all of them to the general internet (thus racking up more fans) or by putting them all on the website itself? Because it feels to me like fans seems to be the way to go - more fans always gets me more subscribers, even if I haven't updated the actual website in a month or more, yet adding more content to the website seems to only net a small tickle of new people coming in.

Another Question: Has anyone ever actually won a paternity suit in court in this game? I'm starting to suspect that it isn't actually possible. Is it intelligence based or just pure (RNG) bad luck?

Yet Another Question: What does upgrading a website actually do? Is there an invisible cap on subscribers per level, or does it simply affect the rate of growth? Does customer happiness actually mean anything?

Not Sure if Working as Intended: I can find no correlation between the skill level of a webadmin employee and the behavior of the website. Their skill level most definitely has zero effect on your ability to upgrade a website - that is clearly based entirely on the number of webadmins, not their level. This being the case, why bother leveling-up webadmins at all? Wouldn't it make more sense to just hire several different level 1 webadmins just to crank up your website level and save money by not training them?

Possible Bug or ESP?: Sometimes I've noticed that the option to send girls to rehab appears even when they have no addictions and check out clean of STDs. Is it that they secretly have one of these debuffs and a bug is letting me send them off anyway even though it's not showing, or is it just a more random bug in the interface itself?

Need Help with Pills: OK, so with cheatmode on you can unlock everything instantly, but one thing eludes me - and it's not the clothes, I know about that issue already. How the heck do you unlock fertility pills outside of cheat mode? That's what is puzzling me. I've hired all the major NPCs that unlock things and yet they still don't show up in the shopping list anywhere.

website was sorta testing ground to see what works and what doesnt. alpha within alpha.
i've changed whole website system in the latest dev. it will be more simple and easily understandable. i hope lol.

it worked something like you described. more fans = more subs. + some weird ass calculation of trends and fees and whatnot
for now fans is the way to go if you want new subs. publishing on website is just to keep the subs happy.
upgrading the site raises the subscriber cap.
yea admins were needed but their level didnt count. it should and it will.

a lot of clothes can only be unlocked by cheats. changed that so you can buy them now.

probably a bug and button didnt update.

pills are cheat mode only thing. for "legit" playthrough you have perks and shit to up the chances.
it's only there if you have preggo fetish and want to impregnate everyone first try.

Do pills work on your PC if you play as a female? Do pills work on female NPC's if you play as a female PC?

The rates are still not 100%. I think it's only 60-70%. I've tried but yea only 6-7 girls out of 10 get pregnant, and that is with constantly fucking them

it should be 100%. something else must be wrong if it's not

And they still take up inventory even after their effects wear out. I think that used pills should be deleted so as not to confuse the player

can someone give me full save v.076d
There's no story, so no "Full" save, even a save is useless you can literraly cheat at the first minute of the game.

Is there some news for 0.77 Build changelog? (if it exist, or project)
Thanks.

Any chance we could see mod support someday? Or does the Godot engine not allow for that?
working on it slowly. first it's gonna be sprite mods.
so basicaly youd copy your stuff into the mods directory, game will scan for pics at the start and include it in the game.
mods directory will also include templates so you can see the exact size and position of the sprites.

after this is working properly then i'll try to make text based mods. so you can load your whole scenario, for example new special chick.

after that we'll see

Cool. What I'm wishing for, though, is something like good old XML files to fuck with... change the salary curve, the skill caps, rest/happiness rates, subs per fan, travel times, encounter rates... stuff like that.
