... and sometimes necessary if - having no plan or strategy whatsoever - the game development went into the wrong direction.

Phone SMS Message problem

So short summary for the Phone SMS problem in v0.100a (and earlier versions) :
It seems that there is a conflict between modal screens and the pause function in renpy. For some reason this worked in older renpy versions but not in the version used by the game now.

The result is that the game gets stuck when the mc tries to send a message (SMS) and the script uses "pause".
This is probably only a problem for players starting a new game.

A solution is to replace the "pause value" statements with "$ renpy.pause(value, modal=False)" in the file game\scripts\Global\phone SMS and Call.rpy.
I did this and it worked for me.

I attached my modified rpy-file.

If you get stuck due to this bug,
- create the folder game\scripts
- create the folder game\scripts\Global and
- place the attached file "phone SMS and Call.rpy" in the folder "game\scripts\Global".


Must I also delete my existing save files? I've already done this to the exact letter and it has yet to work sadly.

Yeah I've attempted this. Is it supposed to be saved as a text document? Is there a way to save it any other way? This hasn't worked
Right click, "save target as"

Text document would be fine too, but in that case you need to change the file extension from .txt to .rpy

Anyone who thinks it's bug free and perfectly balanced with consistent story telling raise their hands!


But honestly, I am not sure about how bad the lead dev thinks the game is.
It's clear (at least to me) however, that it was only made with a basic idea and no big master plan, content being based on polls is the worst that you can do for story telling.
Jokes about development time won't end anytime soon. But I am looking forward to see what he is going to change. I just hope it's not being transformed into a pure VN and remains a sandbox style game.

As usual I pity the people who give him money each month. Correct me if I'm wrong but is this update just a few Elena scenes and one choice for Kate?
