Each VN and each update is different. There's no way to ever know. One never knows what obstacles there are and sometimes just one of those obstacles can take hours to resolve. The more complex the VN the more time it takes obviously. So, since about half of my mods are for the most complex and elaborate of VN's... usually a minimum of 24 hours up to "who the hell knows". Sometimes I can knock out a VN in just a few hours... if it's mostly dialogue. There's just no way to make that judgement. I can't even tell you how much longer I have on this and I have other VN's that dropped needing updates currently. It's a viscous cycle when folks expect SanchoMod to be top-tier. If I were sloppy and half-assed I'd knock them all out in minutes... but I just can't be like that.

Like I said thorough with you is good. Appreciate the incite into how you release your stuff. And judging by the games I've played that use your mods, you're doing something right.

There's going to be a few event variables that currently have little impact but since we have no idea yet if they might be more important than they seem at first (this has happened before) I'm making more than the usual save point notifications/recommendations. This is to keep you from having to restart something later if the variable just simply doesn't merit a cheat (like a relp path for example). Example:

If anyone else forgot to say how awesome Sancho is and that we'll wait for the mod as long as necessary, I'll say it NOW!
First message on this forum just to thank you for your awesome mod. I already got the game and I'm gonna wait for your release before playing it. Thanks for your hard work and effort into making this!

If you haven't played season 1 & 2 yet they are on the site as well, in the same thread. The mod works perfectly well with those seasons

Holy shit! This first FreeRoam has a ton of hidden magazines... 16 or so I reckon. I'm just now starting to code the FreeRoam guide, since I know if I skip it then those folks that have used SanchoMod in S1/S2 will post "WTF?" . I can't cop out of it regardless of my current workload.
Here's the rough transition screen sequence from standard play to FreeRoam (disregard info in the FreeRoam MiniStat... I haven't finished coding it yet):

I'm coding the FreeRoam now. Give me some time to work to that point. I have to setup the MiniStat template first to I can automatically populate the majority of the FreeRoams in the future. I'll let you know if I find anything wonky.

If it helps I think URM is the single greatest tool for any Renpy game. I use it on EVERY single one I play. With other mods installed and never had a single issue because of it. I can change values and variables at will even if the mod I'm using doesn't allow me to. I've used it with Sancho's mod as well in games like Chasing Sunsets and Summer Scent. Not a single issue so far.

The point is, while that might be fine and dandy for other VN's, is that Pinkcake has taken it upon himself to timebomb and landmine mod use. So far I'm the only one not in the crossfire. Maybe that urm is ok, I don't know, just know that there is sabotage code from the dev throughout the scripts. I sorted it out for mobile players but I can't waste any more time for other people's mods. I don't say that being an asshole, it's just that I'm burning hours tracking things down for other folks since the VN updated... so if there is an issue it's not on me... I've given fair warning many, many times. That's the only point I'm trying to relay. I just can't spend my whole days troubleshooting people's fucked up saves when it has nothing to do with me... so, my stance is don't mod mix, and play SanchoMod inside a clean, new installation of the VN. That's the golden rule. See my point?

BTW, I despise this phone chat code. I hated it in Season 2 and it's the damn same. It's worse than UoP. Takes forever to code the ChoiceGuide into it. Very slow and aggravating process. I think it's about whiskey time 'round here... need to replenish my tolerance level or I'll go insane

Bud, I wish I could take my time. I'll end up having to come back to this mod after I release anyway for the PartyPlanning cheat. It'll take way too long and I have to keep getting these mods updated. It's the same every year, they drop like rain during December. It'll be a rock-solid SanchoMod nonetheless. Just some of the complex cheats I have in mind will have to be implemented a bit later on.

Maybe a few hours, maybe not... whenever it's done bud, there's no way to estimate. There's never a known what roadblocks come until you hit them.
I haven't found any code loops. Can you be more specific and I'll sort it out, sure.

I assume he's talking about the never-ending loop with Jill and Bella. It loops with Jill wanting Bella to come over and then continues with Bella talking with girls and then begins again with Jill.
I think they mean the one i posted about on the mainthread, correct me if im wrong.

Maybe i didn't explain my self really well sorry.
basically during episode 9, when i try to talk wiyh josy and maya at the party,during the conversation the game sends me back to the interlude.
i tried to go through the interlude again but i keep getting the same problem
