Ren'Py Brothel King [v0.3] [Goldo]

[stuffnstuff0]

Avoid being in this situation. Have a reserve for rainy days.

Get enough security to lessen or avoid the blow (e.g. 24+ goons+other security in chapter 2 or 40+ in chapter 3 avoids the problem entirely, 16+/20+ halves the penalty). You can get +security perks/traits on your girls or reserve AP for the MC to do some security work himself and add his Strength to the security value.

There's security furniture, which I think now works. There was a time when it did nothing.

If nothing else, sell girls one by one until you can afford to clean up. At worst, you should end up with one maintenance-free girl due to Sill, and work back up from there.

Play on an easier difficulty, possibly.

Save scum or cheat dirt back to zero if it really bothers you.

Personally, I also dislike how little help the goons are during an actual event (their number gets divided so they contribute roughly the same over the entire game, equivalent to ~8-12 Strength to be precise, despite threats and costs scaling higher and higher). I also dislike how not-random security is. Sometimes hiring one more goon is the difference between getting stampeded and a slightly noisy evening.

If anything, there should be a trainer that allows you to have significantly better security. Alas, Maya is pretty gimped.

I also think this 100-dirt security event is too drastic; we can encourage Goldo to lessen it or provide coping methods, but he has resisted in the past (and this is truly one of the few potential game over conditions here for a game challenge).

After I brought this up elsewhere, others gave me suggestions for handling the aftermath:

• Since the "clean up" immediately button on Brothel screen has a significant cost penalty, you can keep the brothel closed and clean up gradually by maxing cleaners. Requires a cash buffer to pay daily expenses, as Jman says.
• Brothel is closed and therefore not contributing to sickness when no girls assigned to normal jobs or whoring.
• Girls can be assigned to Posting quests or classes, or to farm, with no sickness risk.
• Food and items can help girls who were hurt in the security event, but may be too expensive to use in trying to keep girls working in brothel during cleanup. Stock up on one or two in advance.
• If in later game with Banker location available, consider a small loan for expenses until can finish cleaning & re-open. First-time loan on first going to/below 0 gold is also attractive at no interest, but only puts you to 250 gold in hand.
• And Jman's suggestion of selling off a girl would still be better than Game Over...

Yea, if it happens no problem but if it is going to create a death spiral I think I'll just cheat, too bad.

Non-tag parts of girlpack filenames are irrelevant, but can be useful when combining packs from different makers/sources. The Ren'Py error in this and most cases tells what is wrong/missing; occasionally it is obscure.

Edit:
Although under further investigation, the Boa girlpack in Basic Girlpack v 0.2 which this is probably from does not include a file "dancer (0).jpg", so either that file should be created, or (preferably) the _events.rpy example line should be edited to use existing file.
Here is a replacement _events.rpy for Boa's girlpack from Basic Girlpack v 0.2. I am starting tests of it, which also contains several edits for issues I've previously mentioned (use diff/compare if curious). Rename to "_events.rpy" if downloading adds a numerical prefix.

This error occured when I tried to open the gallery for one specific girl pack (Ninomae Ina'nis); every other girl pack works fine without issue. It doesn't really affect me at all, since I can just view the pictures directly in my folder anyway, but I am curious as to why this error is occuring.

 

[DougTheC]

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
File "/storage/emulated/0/Download/Brothel King/Brothel_King-pc/game/script.rpy", line 126, in script
init -2 python:
File "/storage/emulated/0/Download/Brothel King/Brothel_King-pc/game/script.rpy", line 133, in <module>
config.keymap['game_menu'].remove('mouseup_3')
ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list
```

I barely need help

If you haven't yet found out why "game/script.rpy" got added to your game, please attach it here for analysis.

Are you running on a VM, Linux, Joiplay or other non-usual platform?

You can avoid the specific error by bypassing the line setting it in BKinit_variables.rpy, changing

        config.keymap['game_menu'].remove('mouseup_3')

to

        if False: config.keymap['game_menu'].remove('mouseup_3')

(Caps & spaces are sensitive.)

Have you upgraded to recent base game v 0.2 Release (not from OP) & recent patch? What does version say in upper right of startup screen, or end of traceback.txt?

 

[Jman9]

...gallery
...I am curious as to why this error is occuring.

No idea, really. It appears that the 'action' of clicking on an image in the gallery has a condition that is empty or otherwise invalid instead of an expression that can be evaluated.

Maybe it has something to do with the girl pack? Anything odd there? Is it all of the images that do this, only the 'padlock', is the girl notable in any way (first/last in the gallery, last girl hired or interacted with, does she have an image named 'sill.jpg' or somesuch, etc)?

Gallery code has been ignored for a very long time, to the point that the gallery wasn't really functional, uh, I think even through all of 0.15 and 0.15b?

 

[DougTheC]

Thank you, everything fixes. Strange, i downloaded everything in first post, but somehow messed up something.

Please see Edit in my message about replacement file for Boa Hancock girlpack.

Nothing notable about the girl as far as I can tell. Deleting and redownloading the girl pack results in the same error. It's not the action of clicking on the images that cause the error, it's trying to select the girl pack in the gallery. As in, I don't even get so far as to see the padlock images. This error has been occuring since 0.15b, but I didn't give it much thought then. Again, this error is only occuring with this specific girl pack; if I delete the pack altogether, then every other pack still works fine.

It's due to the girl's folder name. I no longer encounter the error after removing the apostrophe.

[Luxed]

Does anyone know whats up with the hentaihighschool website?

 

[Jman9]

whats up

It's down. That's about the extent of it. Nobody has any channels to contact Zythen, the site owner, either. Maybe he had a stroke, maybe he had a come-to-Jesus moment, maybe the Man grabbed him or maybe he just forgot really hard.

Whatever the reason, it is looking increasingly likely that the site is gone for good.

 

[Luxed]

is there a discord for brothel king then or something else like that?

 

[Leortha]

is there a discord for brothel king then or something else like that?

No. Right at this moment we are living in exile here on F95. At some point soon, likely when Goldo returns from his current couple of weeks off, we'll start organizing to find a new home. But I highly doubt it'll be Discord. It's much harder to keep one's hentai life separate from their non-hentai life on Discord. I for one do not want my BK work getting linked to my normal online life. So I would not expect many of us would want to work BK on Discord. No idea what we'll end up with as our new home, but I think Discord is not on the list of possibilities.

 

[Jman9]

is there a discord for brothel king

No. The two threads here are the closest thing to a backup that I know of.

Discord also has the issue that it's a fickle platform run by algorithms and assholes (which is important for NSFW stuff) that doesn't want to let you have a separation of professional, private and - as __neronero put it, even-more-private life. If you're the sort of person who regularly posts selfies of their bedroom on the web, maybe that's not a big issue. If you aren't, well...

There is a (temporary?) Discord for HHS+. They're going to have to find a new home sometime soon as well. IDK if Goldo wants to go with them or look for a new home on his own.
