About it v0.98.2_03.11
- Game version changed to "0.98.2"!!!
- Thanks to your comments, we've fixed a bug that allowed MC to leave establishments before they closed with his girlfriend without paying for the food he ordered.
- As you requested, we made it possible to exchange phone numbers with any NPC from the crew when MC as an actress takes part in a movie shoot. She can now meet NPCs and develop relationships with them outside of the movie set. New mechanics have been made and added to the game that allow you to save and synchronize the data of NPCs who are participating in the filming of the movie, and allows them to save their attributes and be available to interact with the MC during and after the filming is over.
- Using the experience gained while creating the game mechanics of saving and synchronizing data of NPCs who work in the office and on the set of the film studio, we made changes to the game mechanics of getting to know NPCs who live in the dormitory. The main points of the new revision of this mechanic were increasing its stability and more meaningful development of the relationship with NPCs. After getting to know an NPC in the dorm hallway, at a common kitchen or at a party, NPCs will not go straight to the start of the fun or invite her to their room. It will be a smoothly developing relationship, where by befriending NPCs, the MC gets to visit them, and NPCs get to come visit her. There will be no instant phone number exchange here and the MC will have to have a date with a new NPC where they can exchange phone numbers as well.
We remind you that when you move from a dormitory to an apartment, you still have the opportunity to continue developing relationships with familiar NPCs who live in the dormitory. Also be wary of NPCs who offer to just have fun at the dorm party. Their goal will not be to develop a relationship with the MC, and they will view it as a fling and will likely forget about it when they sober up the day after the party. Therefore, the party will be attended by both NPCs who want to get to know the MC and develop a relationship with her, and NPCs who will see the MC as an excuse to have a good time, not caring about her reputation and not wanting to further develop a relationship.
- New game mechanics for dating and exchanging phone numbers with NPCs who work with the MC in an office or on a movie set, or who live in a dorm with her, resulted in a significant revision to the game mechanics that made it possible for NPCs to ask the MC to live with them. After reviewing your requests and recommendations, we have included consideration in these mechanics of the NPC's sexual orientation and the number of dates they have spent together with the MC. These and other factors will now also influence the NPC's decision to ask the MC to live together. MC will no longer be asked by NPCs to live together on the first date, which corresponds to a more realistic relationship scenario.
- The changes also involved developing relationships with the movie producer or the MC's bosses in the office. As in real life, she will have to maintain a high level of relationship with them to be able to get an offer from them to live together. In case they are married, the MC will have to settle for whatever role and relationship the NPC chooses for her.
- Getting drunk to the point of insanity can cause the MC to take additional damage. This can be injuries or ruined clothing from falls when she loses her balance, as well as dirty clothes if she vomits and her stomach is full. When the player sees the appropriate notifications in the extra window, there is a chance that this could happen.
- Changes have been made to the layout of city neighborhoods and the movement of MC walking between neighborhoods. As many of you know, neighborhoods in the city have their appeal based on their location, safety, rental prices, and the establishments and institutions located in them. The new location of neighborhoods clearly reflects their status. In addition, we have renamed the bedroom district, which was called Taganka. The thing is that this neighborhood was mentioned in the game as both a street and a separate district of the city, which often caused confusion. Now it got a new name - South-West and took its place among the city districts. We had to do painstaking work to make changes in all the texts that mentioned this district. We made new routes of movement between the districts and added a map of the city districts, which can be found in the game settings window.
- Completely redone the interactions with sleeping roommates. The ability to inspect their belongings will now always be available. Previously, this action was only available when the roommates were heavily intoxicated. If the roommate is sleeping while highly intoxicated, inspecting his belongings will not be a big problem for the MC. Otherwise, the MC runs the risk of being caught, which could severely damage their relationship and lead to a scandal. The probability of finding something among the roommate's belongings will depend on a variable that tracks MC's theft skill level. Also, MC will no longer automatically pick up all found items. She will have three options available to her - take everything, take some of what she finds, or return everything to its place. MC's choice may affect her relationship with her roommates, as they will be suspicious of her, which will certainly affect their relationship.
- Fixed bugs found in the cohabitation game mechanics, mainly variables that referred to a cohabitant of a certain gender but did not match it, causing problems and bugs. Actions and their consequences for male NPC roommates were replaced with a variant that corresponded to a female NPC and vice versa.
- By interacting with the HG at home, the roommates have gained access to the alcohol stored in the refrigerator. Now they can independently use the alcohol stored in the apartment to offer the HT a drink with him or her.
- According to your recommendations, made it possible for MC to pay for services in hairdressers and beauty salons both in cash and with a bank card.
- Made it possible to pay for purchases with a bank card in boutiques, sports stores and sex stores.
- Attempts to do phone sharing with roommates in the dorm failed. It caused a lot of bugs and paradoxes. But we found another solution to this problem and made a game mechanic that allows MC to continue communicating with them when she stops living in that dorm. If MC decides to check up on her former roommates in the dorm, they will appear in the menu of friends who live in that dorm and in the neighborhood location, where she can also see all the NPCs who live in that area of the city. Once she starts communicating with them, she will be able to exchange phone numbers with them and continue to maintain or develop relationships. We would like to clarify that only those roommates will be available for interaction, whose relationship level at the time of separation will be more than 100, which corresponds to friendship or interest. Roommates with whom the relationship level is displayed as normal will not be available for interaction and will disappear from MC's life forever.
- At your request we have made a display of the state of the roommates in the dormitory, when the player opens the full description of these NPCs. Also now it will display information not only about the stage of alcohol intoxication, but also about the stage of potion effect on the NPC, if she has consumed it. Made a new game mechanics of accounting for the impact of alcohol and potion on roommates in the dormitory, as well as accounting and synchronization of these data.
- Also made a new game mechanic that allows roommates to consume alcohol and potions at will, regardless of whether she interacts with the MC at that moment or not.
- After studying your requests and recommendations, we reduced the annoyance of roommates and made it possible for the MC to refuse to interact with them when they try to start an interaction with her on their own initiative. Completely redesigned the start of interactions with roommates in the dorm.
- Added new files to the game to visualize the events taking place.
- Various fixes, improvements and edits.
Thank you so much for YOUR support !!!
