Ren'Py Heavy Five [Ch.2RS] [Nottravis]

[frap]

Stepping away for a bit, then heading out of town for a few days. I'll be back on later this afternoon/evening, probs early tomorrow morning and then as possible through Friday, with a massive backlog catch-up on Saturday.

In other words, now's your chance to make fun of me.

 

[Akamari]

Nottravis So, about that year in which the game takes place...surely you wouldn't leave that unanswered, would you?

 

[RC-1138 Boss]

Oh I'm-sure- none of you would fall for any obvious traps

And yet you all give Mike a hard time over his lever!

If there was a red button there i am sure Mike would have pressed it already.

 

[Nottravis]

Of course...

That's pretty.

Also foolish. If I were you lot I wouldn't trust a word I said!

Well. Correction. You can trust me. Don't trust any of my characters tho!

Oh! Except the trustworthy ones. You can trust those. Totes!

Yep! I do have a year but it didn't seem that important tbh.

 

[Akamari]

Of course...

I don't. All I do is ask about the in-game year and all I get is mockery.

The number is not important, but could it be...?

Enjoy the show!

PS As if we would ever make fun of you? Although I do remember that time when I asked for a pause and you like, totes made a post to make fun of my request for a pause, so there is that to think about!

Just found my newest tattoo.

Well, I don't know... how am I to make decisions if I don't even know what the year is... If that got out, all hard earned respect would go poof.

 

[Nottravis]

I don't. All I do is ask about the in-game year and all I get is mockery.

This is a good example of why you don't put the year on sci fi.

So, I have a year jotted down somewhere. But it's not really important to the story.

My fear is once I date it then you can end up with random nit picking over scientific development, time and distance calculations and all sorts of non relevant things.

So much better for me to not give a date.

I loved that show when I was a kid (70's, original airing), but the shapeshifter gave me nightmares...even if I thought she was super-hot, as hot as a 7 year old can find a shapeshifting woman. Oh, okay, I just realized I started out pretty fucked up, so no wonder I'm here today.

But there is already 2150 year, by which the I-class ships were built and launched. What's the harm in clarifying the current year? I don't get this at all.

man i am not a fan of the mobile site, but damn i missed some great conversation

They could have been in service for decades or centuries though, let's just say the year is after 2150

Well, this is sensible enough.
But we know the truth.

Not good enough. It's immersion breaking not to know such basic information...

Because then I would have to have enough astro physics to work out how long it would get to the system with Ophion, know the exact propulsion speed of the ships, establish how long each colony was set up including how long that would take etc.....

All for a year date.

It's totally not worth it from a time perspective. It adds nothing but risks plot holes. So no. No year.

This is ridiculous. If you say the year is say, 2155, nobody is going to ask questions about any of these... And even if they did you can just avoid answering just like you do with this question.
