Had to post, love the base game!
Running latest Android with few hiccups, (quick save is king) tried to mod a bit and looked through every post mentioning android but could not find anything conclusive except for the fact that even accessing the android/data folder is a mess nowadays, you need workarounds to do it. People kept mentioning that from Android 11 they disallow 3rd party apps to read from the data folder except for some cases, can't for the love of it make my game find the json file. Shame, but not the end of the world. 10/10 would still not sell my first Bot

gotta say, some of these mods make for some interesting screenshots.
ho boy that's a big price.
After all, i made the tyrande bot have a big multiplier on the basic bot but i don't know what is the multipler for the delivery service.
the big multiplier is explained in the lore of the bot but i will change all the multiplier of the bot at some points as i've got all the multiplier of the corporation have made now fixed and writen inside an excel

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Requires ShakyMod_Parts and my male bot nametable (well, you don't need the nametable, you can just change the name_variants value in the json back to european_names or japanese_names if you really want to.)

And the aforementioned . It's only 27 names, but that should be enough probably.

I found that MR_Bots bots sometimes cause errors because of the webp files. They are not always recognized.

Yep, when replacing part, game show only one part with best integrity/less defects. Mostly to simplify interface.
Still confusing as heck.

What I suggest is to cap skill levels to CPU level +1
Example:
An AGRX-10 with its E-rated Dual|X processor should be limited to Sex D, making it well suited for the disposable bots you sell to the club. If you want to sell it on the Grey Net though, Sex B, Combat C and Mechanics C would then require upgrading the CPU to a C-Rated NeuroTech v4.

I notice that training with a bot that has higher levels in Sex and Combat results in you getting more experienced, but this is not the case if they have higher levels in technical or Social. Is this a deliberate game choice?

On the subject of Sex and Combat, training these seem particularly hard on the chassis, but there's no similar wear and tear for training Social or technical skills. Maybe increased wear and tear on the CPU and eyes? Arm damage for Mechanical and Electronics?

Also somewhat stumped on the AGp-Val. You'd think a tech focused model would need good eyes, but they're stuck with E-Rated OCU/7s. Meanwhile the BDSM and gen purpose models are all using more advanced Irida-XRs.

Your suggestion has merit.

I'm not sure capping the skills is quite fitting. There is a BIG xp difference between using a good CPU and a cheap junk one. But look at RL computers. A simple processor can be absurdly skilled at a task.

Now capping /autonomy/? Absolutely. That makes 100% perfect sense. That's a highly complicated thing, and simple processors just wouldn't be able to manage it. So any CPU below C grade would be incapable of supporting dual roles.

Might be fitting to also limit getting the smart traits to advanced CPUs as well.

I very much, however, think that when changing CPU, there should be a loss of skills (since there's no memory module). Because as it stands, get your hands on a top of the line CPU, put it in the bot, train up, replace the CPU with cheap crap, no downsides.

These aren't simple repetitive tasks. It's having an understanding of social interaction that exceeds that of a human for example. Sure a simple CPU can be good at it, but it's a bit like AIs vs chess grandmasters, the older ones could still be beaten. There's just a point at which a slower more primitive CPU will not be able to cope with all the variables a more advanced performance will require.

Also, under my suggestion, swapping a CPU to a less advanced one will also result in a loss of skill levels beyond the cap. I think it's implied that memories are stored in the psychocore, as wiping it will result in loss of skills and traits. Skill levels though, isn't just bland technical do this or that. It's best practices and 'hacks'.

After some time playing all notifications seem to be stuck on "Hidden" no matter what the actual settings are set to. This is only on my 300+ day save and a new game has the notifications back and the settings (Normal/Small/Hidden) work just fine there.

Open console, type
Code:
notify.enable()
If it does not help, try
Code:
notify.counters.clear()
I see this reported for second time, but have no idea why it could happen. Do you playing with mods?

CPU is used to "gain" knowledge. PsychoCore crystal is where knowledge is "stored". So if you change CPU bot will gain skills slower/faster, but already known knowledge will be kept and used. This is intended. Ability to swap CPU after training period is semi-official cheat you can use or not, feel free to roleplay :D Eventually replacing parts will add some risk of damaging or even destroying parts involved, if related skills are too low, balancing it a bit.

Autonomy is general ability to adapt, as bots learn more about various aspects of world/human, they can learn other things faster. Same about low autonomy, lack of broad general understanding will slow down learning of new things.

I noticed that social does not increase for the MC. Is that the way that it should be?
MC social supposed to be slow to train. You can do it by relaxing at Robosechs, but generally it is more or less innate ability, so if you want to have high social either invest more char points at start into it or tweak tunings.json giving yourself bigger social xp mult.

cool, thanks for the feedback! ;)

I am really liking the game so far. Inspiring me to do a 3D version, which I had been dreaming of doing for a long time. It will probably take a while though, even for a first test release :LOL:
