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.
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.

There is a point at the visit where you're given the option "We need to talk". That's the breakup option.
I know this dialogue only appears if you fall in love with another girl. If you are loyal then there is nothing to discuss... But I could be wrong...

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.
Love this kind of read.

About that, we got the lexi secret path. Do you think is going to have a darker tone?
Made a Layla/Elena plus secret path for the lols, Could we witness greatness with Lexi into this Path?
Stealing Mc from Layla or Straight Cheating Would be glorious beyond measure. But i do understand the extremes of my suggestion and read about Dev kiddie gloves about a darker turn.

About Erynn into Alex path. She is already craking under the fooling around as more than friends.
Is going to be a moment when she is going to sucumb and cheat. Now how does the story moves from there.

Now, as an exception, I would also like to ask... The person who has a secret rout and had sex with Iris in the beach cabin, in that version, does Irisz send the "I love you" message to MC? Or does it just send the "I'm home" response?

Question. I was doing Tori route and fuck her at every opportunity but I didn't get that newest Tori scene that is in the gallery? Why?

I'm not sure if this topic was already discussed or not, but if the developer ever decided to do a throuple route, I would strongly recommend Elena/Layla/MC, because the chemistry is seemingly natural, and the amount of times the MC gets away with being intimate with Elena in Layla's presence seems to indicate that route being a possibility. Elena is like the rare exception of the third wheel done right. Of course, fooling around/having fun is extremely different than Elena going out of her way to admit her feelings to not only us but Layla as well. Not to mention, the fallout that would soon follow if you were actively pursuing or had pursued other women in the past (especially Alexis/Lexi). Either way, this throuple route would be very cool to see.
A random throuple I would find intriguing to happen would be Nikki and Erynn.

Maybe I am misremembering but when you choose that option, Nikki says it's okay then you can continue with the relation, when she was leaving at the airport she says next time I won't be this understanding breakup with them. Am I wrong or is this another path?
That's interesting, because when I chose the "we need to talk" option, the Nikki path eventually closes off/depature at the airport, you miss three additional scenes, and the MC informs Nikki that he is seeing someone, who that is up to you (Which is funny because later on in the next update, my MC didn't officially label Layla as his girlfriend to Isiah/Sienna's boyfriend).

However, if you are sexually/romantically involved with the other LIs, you can still be on the Nikki route (Except you are cheating on her now) by picking the hug her and then kiss her options, without any acknowledgement of the other women to Nikki as long as you continue to give Nikki attention/love/time before she leaves to go back home via airport.

I do wonder where the Alexis secret path ends up, i mean everybody made all kinds of excuses for her on her dishonest actions(Alexis normal path) early on.
She was afraid of the MCs reaction, afraid of Erynn getting ahead of her... and she was so repentant and guilty.... and now she's getting ready to steal her sister's beloved?
Again this character would be better as no limits wild chick, the "reputation washing" only hurt her imo, right now it's like she has 2 personalities.

The "flirts with Erynn while dating Alexis" is heading for an epic clash, Erynn is barely holding together and Alexis is jealous and insecure, the scene at the beach is great if you are on this path.

Can someone explain to me the appeal of Erynn ?
I can only speak for my self. Some of these points may make me seem biased toward Erynn but it's just my feeling hell my feeling toward Alexis and about 4 others in my top 10 LI list are almost as strong just not as thought out as well as Erynn. Out of all these points, points 1,2,4,5,9 and part of 7 are the main factors for my high opinion of her.

1. The way Erynn acts like a second mother, taking you to school giving you rides, small gestures to take care of you I find real sweet and cute.

1. The trauma Erynn encounters from Ethan and you moving away without knowing why and no contact. A lot of the time I find characters with a trauma background makes for a better character overall. From just the way they act cause it's more realistic all the way to making a decent character background in general all depends on said character. While yes Erynn's trauma is mostly super simple but it does help t draw me to her even more, especially the the Ethan stuff.

2. This point can go under point one but this more universal to the art style more id say. They way Nyx shows tears when a character is crying in this game is sad of course but also makes the characters look kinda cute or cuter depending who it is. Maybe im a little fucked up for liking this but it is what it is.

3. The fact she is a childhood friend and the fact that she isn't actually a mean girl like the MC thinks at first but is actually really sweet and kind and probably a decent person overall. The fact that we get to read her thoughts and feelings helps to figure that out rather quickly. While yes I do like Childhood friends to a certain extent but it's a case by case bases for me but when it's something sad like they spent time apart when they have feeling for one another I eat that shit up.

4. When she is being playful toward the MC it's really cute, some of my favorite parts and fun to read and look at. We could get only these scenes and no sex with her and id be fine with it even tho id like to see MC and her have sex.

5. Her personality, her feelings and playfulness makes her give me a girlfriend feeling over a LI like Alexis and I love when a LI gives me that feeling very few can accomplish that yet NYX made 2 that give me that exactly feeling. Only 7 out of the 59 on my personal LI gave me that feeling but not as well as Erynn and Alexis.

6. There is just some kind of appeal to her being a model.

7. Her appearance is just nice to look at and she is just hot

8. Helps that she isn't that slutty for being a model compared to someone like Alexis and she is a slow burn character. I prefer slow burn characters but Erynn feels like one of the rare few slow burns done right. I feel alot of slow burns start good then once things start to heat up between them they lose that slow burn feeling and go to quickly. So when there is some resistance It makes it feel more realistic and rewarding when they finally do have sex.

9. While she doesn't tell the MC her feelings she has deep down yet but the way she acts , how the scenes are rendered and the writing of her thoughts you can tell she has true feeling for the MC. While yes this can be said for other LI in games but just the way it's shown in this games gives it more of a realistic feel than most LI out there to me.

10. This is more of a me thing. But she is one of the few characters that makes me sad , bummed out makes me want to cry when I finish a replay or the update is over. Very few games are powerful enough to do that to me let alone characters id say no more than 10 games / characters have done that to me. In Erynn's case however it's one of the more powerful feeling of sadness or being bummed out compared to some. Hell sometimes cant fall asleep cause I just think about her and fantasies or scenes I would like to see. Same goes for a few select LI that are just as powerful as Erynn to me.

Now I do acknowledge she has her faults that not everyone is going to like or be able to get over. Like the drama between her and Alexis initially or how she seems to be the jealous and possessive type towards the mc. While being possessive is indeed a negative trait I feel in Erynn's case it isn't without reason either do to the MC being away without contact for 5 years and Erynn clearly loved him during that entire time away. Still not a valid excuse to be possessive but still a better reason than someone like Alexis that is the same way. So her major faults were easy for me to overlook.
