Nyx made us some Russian Roulette...But only the craziest play this...I'll stay good boy and go Layla...
I mean you did lead Layla in her path ergo the corruption tag 'smiles' having the guts to stop before is consumed is the right thing to do if you have doubts don't you think?

Agreed. Lets at least get rid of one drama or focus on solving one and then intrduce another. Right now we have several of them. This is my list and i'll not put them all.

1. Sex tape - this one is huge and is conected to Erynn's story

2. Mysterious body near dumpster - now i presume that's Rachel, the question is whether or not Brooke is somehow conected

3. Discovery that Erynn and Iris are related - no need for exploration here

4. Afair betwin MC and Gabi - think about it Gabi is teacher, MC is student and this type of relationship always end bad

5. John is back - if i'm not mistaken that's the name of Iris's dad but also of Erynn. Plus he's Melissa's ex

There are of course more of them and with each new update more of them are coming.

This is a good point...Alcohol releases inhibitions and all three of them know what can happen in the future...Of course, before that, we have to discuss together whether this is good for everyone..
If we enter into semantics for the case a throupe is going to be a hard sell.
Mostly horny brain porn logic.
The Elena+Layla scene this update was alcohol enhanced, it only stopped because of Alexis... the kids were gonna keep at it.

Honestly the talk can happen before or after, whatever works... If it's before it's a matter of convincing them this can be good, if it's after it's a matter of dealing with the moral guilt that comes after such an "event".
Maybe we'll need both...

Just go with "let's not restrain our love and our fun and we owe nothing to society" :cool:

I had no doubts about this choice. I immediately clicked on Layla. I was with her for ten episodes, I won't spoil this trip because of another girl.

Sure Layla is sweet as honey uncorrupted.
But a mature take is keeping her virgin if your Mc is not going to end the game with her in this scenario.

She will get over it. Would be infinite worse ending after that night.

Nyx has just shown this possibility ... Or is he just playing with us and the fantasy?
The fantasy of the players is the problem of the players. I don't see a possibility. Where should this be? Alexis is extremely jealous, so no throuple with her involved. Layla and Elena? How? Layla is a fairy tale princess type in her first serious relationship. She won't share and Elena is overprotective about Layla. Erynn? Who should be the other part? There's no one except Alexis who I could imagine she would accept, but as I wrote Alexis jealousy avert this. Valeria? Nikki? Cara? Did I forget someone? I don't see the "shown possibilities". With much imagination there could be a way in the future if we don't chose Elena, but I don't think there's a way.

fine points, as I said before, then Elena is a moot point if thats the case.
only being a throupe target.
And dismissing her to just a bonus is kinda rude to her.

Pains to watch our sweet Layla in despair.

her path is endgame if we can't end it before V and the milking can't stop. Drama must continue.
Honestly i don't see it that way, the MC-Layla-Elena relationship can be a sweet relationship of 3 people who truly love each other.
This isn't gonna be Layla going "she's hot, let's invite her"... You need Iris for that :cool:
There's real care, friendship and love towards one another with these 3.

And yeah the break up scene was a punch in the gut, just awful(which means it's a very well made scene before anyone gets on my case).

You're overthinking what I'm saying..I was only talking about the Elena/Layla couple as a possible trio...Only these two girls got a hint of what could happen if...I didn't mention others...

Basically you have to friendzone Nikki and Cara so that neither one visits.

Their story runs on separate threads for a long time... Feel free to choose Layla, and when one of the girls comes to visit you, tell her that you already love someone else. They are sorry, but this was your decision and they won't bother you after that. They won't be in the friend zone, they won't get more content in the game... You can continue your journey with Layla...

at that point it's not even worth for them to come visit you if you reject them anyway... I just make sure not to have too high weekend points with them and then they doon't want to see you anyway after the Andres fiasco

I usually choose Nikki because i like her, but this time i refused to spend the night with her and automatically the mc said he had feelings for Cara, i didn t get the option to friendzone both.

You're right, but up until that point, both girls are so cute that it's impossible not to love them... :love:

Either break up with the one you picked when they visit you, or keep both of their LI points low and you won't be pursuing either. Either way, you won't be in a relationship with Nikki/Cara in ep 11

If you chased both girls and performed to the maximum for both, then after the choice, the losing girl will automatically become a friend and accept your decision.

Alright, so there is a huge problem with this game...the save grid is only 2x3! With so many paths and options, it is damn near impossible to track them all with that small of a grid

I came up with a solution, though, that will make it both easier to manage and allow the grid to gracefully expand (without needing to worry about reordering of your saves). It even resizes the thumbnails to appropriately fit within the new grid. I can't take all the credit, because this post showed me how to resize the thumbnails without re-saving. It leaves the thumbnails a bit warped, but it is a small price to pay for the expanded grid.

Step one, in gui.rpy find the secion that starts with ## File Slot Buttons and replace it with this

Python:
## File Slot Buttons ###########################################################
##
## A file slot button is a special kind of button. It contains a thumbnail
## image, and text describing the contents of the save slot. A save slot uses
## image files in gui/button, like the other kinds of buttons.

## The number of columns and rows in the grid of save slots.
define gui.file_slot_cols = 5
define gui.file_slot_rows = 4

## The save slot button.
define total_slots_width = 1256
define total_slots_height = 708
define common_slot_spacing = 15
define old_slot_cols = 3
define old_slot_rows = 2
define gui.slot_button_width = (total_slots_width - gui.file_slot_cols * common_slot_spacing * 2) / gui.file_slot_cols
define gui.slot_button_height = (total_slots_height - gui.file_slot_rows * common_slot_spacing * 2) / gui.file_slot_rows
define gui.slot_button_borders = Borders(0, 0, 0, 0)
define gui.slot_button_text_size = 14
define gui.slot_button_text_xalign = 0.5
define gui.slot_button_text_idle_color = gui.idle_small_color
define gui.slot_button_text_selected_idle_color = gui.selected_color
define gui.slot_button_text_selected_hover_color = gui.hover_color

## The width and height of thumbnails used by the save slots.
define config.thumbnail_width = gui.slot_button_width
define config.thumbnail_height = gui.slot_button_height - 2 * gui.slot_button_text_size
Step 2, in screens.rpy find the block of code that starts for i in range(gui.file_slot_cols * gui.file_slot_rows): and replace it with

Python:
                # this allows the number of slots to gracefully expand
                for i in range(gui.file_slot_rows):
                    for j in range(gui.file_slot_cols):

                        if (i < old_slot_rows):
                            if (j < old_slot_cols):
                                # The original numbering scheme
                                $ slot = j + i * old_slot_cols + 1
                            else:
                                # the new columns in the old rows
                                $ slot = old_slot_rows * old_slot_cols + (gui.file_slot_cols - old_slot_cols) * i + (j - old_slot_cols + 1)
                        else:
                            # the new rows
                            $ slot = slot = j + i * gui.file_slot_cols + 1
                        
                        button:
                            action FileAction(slot)

                            has vbox

                            add FileScreenshot(slot) xalign 0.5 yalign 0.5 size(config.thumbnail_width, config.thumbnail_height)

                            text FileTime(slot, format=_("{#file_time}%A, %B %d %Y, %H:%M"), empty=_("empty slot")):
                                style "slot_time_text"

                            text FileSaveName(slot):
                                style "slot_name_text"

                            #key "save_delete" action FileDelete(slot)
                            if FileLoadable(slot):  #Code provided by KoGa3
                                imagebutton:
                                    idle "gui/button/button_delete_idle.png"
                                    hover "gui/button/button_delete_hover.png"

                                    action FileDelete(slot)

                                    xalign 1.0
                                    xoffset gui.slot_spacing / 4
                                    #yalign 0.0
                                    yoffset -(gui.slot_button_height + gui.slot_button_text_size)
Then, if you want to expand your grid, you just have to change the two lines define gui.file_slot_cols = 5 or define gui.file_slot_rows = 4 to whatever grid size you want!

If anyone has a way to contact either scrappy, please, feel free to point them this way. This would be nice to get into the multi mod.

Hopefully in the future, more games choose to make the save screen programmatic (based on the size of the grid), rather than a hand-tuned set of constant values.
