Ren'Py Abandoned Defective Sexbot Chop Shop [v0.4.1] [Radnor]

[Radnor]

I like how much Radnor communicates with us directly here. That's fairly rare I find. Only other one on this level that I've seen is RyenSaotome with Renryuu: Ascension. Let's hope we don't put you off with our demands for more!

I can understand when people want this or that content or update sooner, but i have limited time and large todo list, so i do what i can, when i can.
So while i understand you guys, please, don't push too much. Eventually things will be done.

I was always wondering how you manage to develop the game when you almost answer every question here. You must be a droid too. Aren't you dear?

Nope, just a normal meatbag human bei488945989<run-time error #200, rebooting...>

Gotta love HK-47

Something that Ive been curious about- the generate mind chances.
Are the chances to draw None the same for default as well as defined parameters?
It seems like the defined bots appear with None extremely often. But when they do load skills, the load is right.

This game needs a Fisto mod

FNV? xD

 

[CyberOp]

I wanted to recreate the Chop Shop in Blender

 

[Radnor]

Ok, there are few (already fixed) bugs reported by playtesters so far, so if nothing happens there is very good chance of 0.3.1 next 10-20 hours, still need to clean things up and update modding documentation.

Even though this game is small on content, I found myself playing this all night until the early morning, it just show how this game is enjoyable for people. (or it's just me)

Major new things in 0.3.1:

- more moddable things, including, but not limited to, custom bot model parts/slots layouts, think nekobot ears/tails etc
- BIG STORAGE workshop upgrade, can catch em all now
- QoL: bulk part sales, shopekeeper roles selling lower level items autonomously, one-click repair random bot in capsule
- but wait, there is more, check changelog above

From dev point of view, this update should cover many foundation issues, lessening needs to break save compatibility and adds various code hooks invisible to player, but which will be useful later on.

 

[X-Topic]

I cannot w8 to see the updated mods now Good job Dev Keep up the good work

 

[Daedalron]

I tried to add some traits, and the combat_smart / social_smart work, but I can't seem to be able to add the dumb traits as inherent traits for bots. Is that not possible, or is the syntax different?
For reference, I used: "sex_dumb_inherent"

Edit: normal sex dumb works, but not the inherent version...

 

[Harabec]

Does this update effect how mods work or are made?

 

[Daedalron]

Technically, no. Mods from 0.2.1 should still work.
But the update gives a lot more possibilities to mod the bots, so I assume many modders will tweak their mods with those new things.

For my mod, I will probably need a week before I have time to release the update, since I will need to add new slots (tail, ears...) for some of the new bots. The mod should end up with 28 bots if I can do all I want.

Nice, I know I got a request for a specific model if any modders are willing. I think Connie Carter has enough material to make a great bot!

No inherent bad traits yet, might add next small update i guess.

Old mods should work, i don't think i have removed/broke anything existing, tried to add/extend only.

I dont have time to play it, but i did download it and test it quick. My mod still seems to work, even better now that i can just leave it zipped
