Ren'Py Lab Rats 2 - Reformulate [v2025 4.0.37]

[XulOnTuesday]

FUCCCKKKKK *THROWS PC* TRIED FORCING THE EVENT AND NOTHING MAYBE ITS MY SAVE >.< ILL TRY AGIAN ON NEW GAME *HEAD DEASK*

My bet is you've already passed the event and something later got corrupted. Try:

lily.event_triggers_dict["sister_instathot_mom_knows"] = False

(remember to run the first command again, because it resets during every weekly meeting)

Edit: to absolutely force everything and possibly break more stuff,

call mom_weekly_pay_lily_question(mom)

Can you post a copy of your save? I want to figure out what went wrong. Have you done any modding beyond this mod?

I overwrote my old save after I forced it :/ I can try replicating the issue it shouldnt be too hard... and other than the nora serum commands no. Also I noticed that the arousal serum event does not trigger for me either...

 

[shane420]

Okay whats the call for the arousal serum event? See if I can break moar shit >.< stupid events not flagging. I noticed ever since they implemented the options of how quickly you want your game play some events have not been triggering properly :/

All of the sidequests were disabled in the gameplay speed update. For some unknown reason. You have to change the file extensions for the files in game\Mods\Plotlines\SideQuests\ from .bak to .rpy. I've made an issue about it and maybe Starbuck can explain.

Welp glad we figured it out. Shit was driving me nuts...

I wanted to play Lab Rats 2 again and downloaded the relevant files. I put everything together as usual and started a new game. At first everything is going as usual and I wanted to make my first serum. But when I gave it a name and wanted to create it, there was an immediate crash. I can click ignore, but then the next one comes up, and then another. After clicking ignore 3 times, I'm back in the game. Wouldn't be so bad if you didn't get an error message for every step. I've tried it until Sarah should appear, but every time I'm at home and click on wait, I only get error messages. Sarah doesn't appear and the whole thing hangs in a loop. The whole thing seems to have a problem with Ashley, because it keeps appearing:

File "game/Mods/People/Ashley/role_Ashley.rpy", line 124, in ashley_intro_requirement
if day > TIER_3_TIME_DELAY and mc.is_at_work() and mc.business.is_open_for_business():
NameError: global name 'TIER_3_TIME_DELAY' is not defined

I have no idea what it means and will therefore delete the files again, because it is currently not playable.

TIER_3_TIME_DELAY is defined when you choose the game speed at the start of the game. Did you remember to install the

found on the main page? I think that includes the modded entry point.

I installed the bug fix. However, the last version has not been changed for 3 months and I always download all files fresh. I copy everything to a new folder for each new game. Unfortunately, I've done it twice and always get the same error.

What speed do you choose for time settings?

I'm trying to figure out how to modify the size and placement of the female models to be more in the center, low, and scaled up, to represent more of a typical first-person perspective. Does anyone know where those variables are located, and if I could change them without breaking anything else?

I took a quick glance.... My guess is the screens.rpy located in the game directory. There is a screen Person_choice function there that builds a frame I believe the displayable model uses. Could try changing the size and position of those vboxs to achieve what you want. That's where I would start poking at the code anyway.

\game\Mods\Core\Mechanics\Helper_Functions\scene_manager.rpy

##########################################
# Transformation for display_transform   #
##########################################
init 1:
    python:
        def calculate_scale(height_factor):
            return 0.7 - ((1 - height_factor) / 3)   # for now render at 70% size

If you change return to 1.0 Lily becomes too big to fit on screen.
If you go further down in the code you find a bunch of xalign. Adjust it by / to -0.5 to end up close to center of the screen.

But you would end up with buttons on top of them, so to make it look good you would need to redesign a big chunk of the gui.

Hey btw Phoexist
Mentioned you in the mod discussion thread in the discord regarding the nursery mod and getting an error on it. When you get a chance let me know what you think.

 

[njblblbjbkbkbkbk]

I downloaded your complete mod and game file and unzipped it. In game the wardrobe menu has no OK button, no way to complete a wardrobe. Any help would be great

 

[Deane9850]

Save outfit not available? If you divide the wardrobe screen to 4, its on the bottom right section.

Hey, thanks for fixing the player serums, saw your update in the git commits. I thought that was broken for just certain scenes, but it was the entire thing, so thank you for that.

A few suggestions or problems I've found in the game:
1. When you take interns (besides Kaya) to lunch the game will break. It seems it can't find likes/dislikes of the girl to show as options.
2. All actions should take up energy: I would reduce the amount of energy taken by "make small talk"; "compliment her"; "flirt with her" to 5 but actions such as "ask her to lunch/movies/dinner/date/lingerie"; "ask her to be girlfriend"; "talk about birth control"; all actions in "give her a command", basically everything even the ones under special actions should also take 5 of energy.
3. Finally I would reduce the actions that advance to the next phase of the day to an absolute minimum and making sure they always show those ">>>". Actions such as "start performance review" makes no sense and becomes useless once it has that effect of making the day advance. Same thing with the "study her for Nora" thing. At most put an higher energy cost on some special actions and allow each phase of the day to go negative on the energy but once it goes negative it passes to the next phase of the day automatically. What I mean is let's say I have 7 of energy left, an action costs 50. It will allow me to do the action at the cost of advancing to the next phase of the day.
4. Each interaction within the sex dialogue box should count to upgrade the serums mastery level.
5. I just had a problem where the city coucil investigator has come to my business on the day&hour that I had a meeting with Lynn's father. The game advances and doesn't allow me to attend that other meeting moving on from morning to evening. This should never happen.
Anyway, just thought on sharing a few random thoughts.
Have fun! And keep up the good work.
