Ren'Py Lab Rats 2 - Reformulate [v2025.04]

[slick97]

Tristim - Here is a proposal for a new fertility_percent function for those choosing an easier difficulty:

self.fertility_percent = 50.0 - ((self.age-18.0)*(50/60))

For anyone curious as to why all the fertility percentages approach 0 at the age of 78... this is what I assumed Vren used as an age limit to prevent an infinite age in which pregnancies can occur. The following is the same function in which the variables are labeled in full:

Fertility Chance = Base Fertility - (Current Age - 18)*[Base Fertility / (Age Limit - 18)]

Theoretically, we can set the age limit to anything we want and generate a set of new plots based on a desired age limit.

If Tristim (or anyone for that matter) are feeling extra ambitious, they can generate a random age limit using real world data for determining what the upper and lower bounds should be. If it's some Gaussian distribution we can use the first standard deviation as the upper and lower bound since that will already be known.



I can't believe I'm using my engineering degree providing datasets on an optimal function for fertility in a porn game of all things... I hope someone actually finds this insightful lol

How do you trigger Jennifer and Sarah's threesome?

 

[NCricket42]

Is there any benefit to programming the nanobots yourself other than saving money? Like is there a quest line difference? Otherwise it doesn't seem worth it with how much time it takes.

Depending on your R&D, Intelligence, and Focus score you can also finish programming within just a few turns. It just results in less work for Ellie once you hire her.

How do you trigger Jennifer and Sarah's threesome?

So far the only thing I found is a reference to the teamup (the tooltip), but there doesn't seem to be any conditions that have been implemented yet. You can trigger a generic threesome by have both ladies present in the same room, but it doesn't relate to any story events.

That threesome I believe is triggered as part of Sarah's dating story. I think the first hint is when you both get home soaked after walk home in the rain.

That scene only involves a solo scene with Sarah despite Jennifer being present and making lewd comments.

almostsentient - You can indeed trigger a threesome with Jennifer as well as Lily, Rebecca, and Gabriella. However, this does not actually update the teamup event since that seems to be a separate storyline altogether.

While on downtown streets, how could you change the object floor to lawn or sidewalk. I've added objects to rooms before. What's the command to remove an object.

is there a console code to reset covering for Lilly instapic

is there a console code to reset covering for Lilly instapic

If it hasn't been changed in the mod, just request nude pics from her over insta and help her take those pics, and then Jennifer should ask you about it again on Saturday

This is more general Ren'Py/Python tech support but I can't find an answer anywhere else. I uninstalled the monster that is Norton 360 from the computer I'm using after being tired of fighting with it for so long, and somehow uninstalling it has broken Lab Rats 2. It ran fine before. Now trying to run it causes...nothing to happen. I try to open it, windows acts like it's loading something for a second, and then nothing happens. I tried installing the python package. Nada. Any suggestions? I really don't want to have to reinstall windows because of fucking norton.

 

[FusiFranse]

.... Norton in general ....

same old...
try CCleaner and Wise Registry Cleaner
after you deinstalled that scam with "Revo Uninstaller" and it's bunch of remains in your registry.
I had only once a short issue after this treatment but got soon after another IP via intermittend change with contracted provider.
BUT, thats no Python issue nor game related, but you know that...

This might fix the issue where you cannot load a save from the previous version. I at least had it working initially.
The devs changed a function name and removed some variables (i think) so the boobjob function had to be referred to the new function.

Loading saves from the 2023.06.09 build in the 2023.07.11 build created an odd fire_model_requirment error for me that seemed exactly like what was addressed in your fix, so I copied one of your lines, added my error's name, and now everything works like a charm. Feel free to update your post with the attached or let the folks here know that this slapdash method works for similar AttributeError issues.

 

[Gizmo1206]

so is the PATCH 2023.07.11A MAC patch only for the mac version or is it a patch for both? also besides difficultly does easy mode change anything else?

Where in Reformulate can we modify the chances of certain events occuring? In the base game I believe it was in game/crises/Limited_time_crises or something similar.

you can do it directly in game. from home. i think in your room but i am not sure if that is a requirement.

 

[Keizer19]

Is there some trigger I need to do for Jennifer's Lust Story Progress where in you have to give her time to settle on her Job? Also for Ellie's "Surprise you at Work" Love Story Progress. It doesn't seem to trigger for me

You can change the frequency of events in your room at home. I forget the name of the button, but if you see buttons for "preferences" and "FAQ" then you should see the event occurrences option as well.

I'm on mobile ATM, but these events usually have a pre-requisite (i.e. the_person.lust > 40, or the_person.love > 60) and then have a random chance at occuring based on the frequency you've set. There are usually other requirements, such as being present in a specific location, but I believe Ellie's and Jennifer's events don't have those requirements.

Change the girl's opinions on stuff they don't like (where applicable to work and outfits), give them raises, having sex all the time works like a charm, serums. CYOA

Appreciate it. Those plus driver reinstalls + restart seems to have fixed it.
