Starting from an outcast slut is quite interesting. And this time there's no casino to make a lot of money so my Sveta has to work a lot to buy her cosmetics. Moisturizer is quite expensive! :eek: I should save more money during the summer break to buy the fake passport as soon as possible. Sigh! :cry:

Starting from slut is really tough unless you cheat with inhibition stat. But ending up as slut gives insane amount of income with high enough rep around town;)

Slut and Ugly outcast starts are meant to be the hard challenging starts due to player requests for some really hard starts.

I can't find it. I tried passing a few weeks normally in the hotel "home" and also some time skipping. I can go to the therapist during the normal sessions every week but that was unchanged (aside from the weekly cooldown now). Am I missing something?
So the 6th hotel event sets the hotel_key flag to 3, which currently eliminates the possibility of playing more therapist hotel events. This is because there is a check in pav_hotel that specifically only lets you access these events when hotel_key = 2. If hotel_key = 3 you get access to the generic location HotelRoom, but with the therapist argument (see code below). This argument and the hotel_key flag does nothing here but change some flavor text around the room, making it so you don't have to worry about checkout, and changing some of the images used to depict the room. This location does not branch to more therapist events as of yet.

TLDR: No additional scenes after getting your own hotel room

I haven't checked to see if there's any new scenes in the therapy sessions aside from the ones telling you that you can only have one session a week, but I don't believe I saw any when I did my speedrun up to the hotel chain on this new update.

Code:
**From therapist_hotel**
if $ARGS[0] = 'event6_submit4':
    ...
    therapistQW['hotel_key'] = 3
    gs 'homes_properties', 'set_home', 'hotel_therapist'

    gt 'pav_hotel'

end

**From pav_hotel**
if therapistQW['hotel_key'] = 2 and week = 6 and hour > 19 and pcs_traits['commando_lvl'] = 3 and therapistQW['hotel_day'] ! daystart and therapistQW['escaped'] = 0:
    therapistQW['hotel_day'] = daystart
    gs 'willpower', 'misc', 'resist', 'medium'

    act 'Visit the therapist': gt 'therapist_hotel', 'start'

    if pcs_willpwr < will_cost:
        act 'Don''t visit the therapist (<font color="red"><<will_cost>> Willpower</font>)': '<br><font color="red">You don''t have enough willpower to use this action.</font>'
    else
        act 'Don''t visit the therapist':
            gs 'willpower', 'pay', 'medium'
            gt 'pav_hotel'
        end
    end
    exit
end

...

if hotelRoom['pav_hotel'] > 0 or therapistQW['hotel_key'] = 3:
    act 'Go to your room':
        $hotel = 'pav_hotel'
        if therapistQW['hotel_key'] = 3:
            gt 'HotelRoom', 'therapist'
        elseif hotelRoom['pav_hotel'] = 1:
            gt 'HotelRoom', 'normal'
        elseif hotelRoom['pav_hotel'] = 2:
            gt 'HotelRoom', 'better'
        end
    end
end

I don't think they worked on the prostitution events either, that code for the therapist has stayed as-is for a while now. Was hoping maybe that branch of it would be accessible now. Gotta wait for another update then :p

Why am I getting messages that my characters breast are decreasing? Why would you even put something like that in a game?

Would you rather not get messages that your breast size is decreasing?
I haven't even been playing this character for two weeks game time, and already she's lost two cup sizes. Why would you even put something like that in the game?

when I hook up with someone in the night club and go back to theirs, if I select the option to ask to see them again and they agree and send the text, they're then not in my contacts on the phone, is this a bug or a limitation of the current version?

Have you tried, idk.... eating? Breast size can change 1-2 cup sizes depending on your Weight/BMI... That's reality. GL is a Life Simulator first, Porn Game second.

Of course she eats, but she also exercises so that she can increase her stats. A weight change that drastic is NOT realistic. That's starvation changes. The question is though why should a player even have to go through this shit? You've got all of these storylines that players have been waiting on content for and here we are fucking with this stupid shit.

Hornguy works on that and I don't know if he has added in the ability for you to text them back yet. The sms phone is a new feature and it will take us awhile to get it added, since it requires a lot of writing of text so you can contact them and have them respond.

As said GL is a life sim that mimics RL. If you lose or gain x amount of weight your breasts size will change, that is what happens to girls. So if you don't eat enough for how much you are working out you will lose a fair amount of weight just like in RL or the reverse if you eat to much and don't work out you will start putting on a lot of weight

Code changes have NOTHING to do with writing of storylines different people work on those. For example I am a writer for the game, I write a lot of the content for the game. Obviously not all of it, but I write a lot of the pav school and Uni content as well as some of the pav kids story lines. Hornguy works on the modeling studio and random hookups, Derryth who you respond to works on Vicky, Vanya and Vicky's mom Tamara. BBZ works on Natasha, Bgk works on Katja etc. Now Bgk is one of the few that works on both coding and writes. While Rachel and Felix only work on code etc.

Most people working on the game work on one or the other, few are like Bgk who do both. Some of use writers know enough code to do most of the code for our stories we write, but we don't work on stuff like what you are talking about. That is left to the full time coders, which is why when we add or change major code it has zero impact on how quickly stuff is written for the game. With the one exception being when the writers are waiting for code to be finished, like none of us was writing SMS texting until the coders got a system working that we liked.

it's a really great addition, adds a lot of qol to the game! Looking forward to seeing more of it in the future. Kudos to the whole team for the hard work as always :)

It will be when we have time to add enough texts to let the player text NPC's but to be honest that will be a ways off we are still working on getting enough reactions to clothing, boob size, fame etc. Right now there is only some unnamed NPC that text Sveta and the only named ones that do I believe is Feofan and Anushka so far. But at the moment you can't text them back... YET.

I've played from June on the SG route all the way to half the first year of college on my old save. After this update I tried to start again and it's nothing but weight issues. First, your character starts out fat which is no fun at all for most players. Now her weight is going up and down, her breast size is all over the fucking place, and it's just annoying.

Is there any direction at all on the development of this game? Because if you are just a group of individuals doing your own thing then the project is just a row boat in the middle of the sea, going in circles. And that's not worth my time or my money as a player
