How do you advance Lily's anal taboo break quest? After choosing the "Let me change your mind" option she says to ease mom into the idea of her taking pictures for money. I've tried helping her take instapics and have requested every option available for her to send me nudes, etc. on instapic but nothing has happened. I know I could just make her love incest but I'd like to go through the event and right now I don't see any way to do that.

It's been a while, but I think that's the one where you have to get Mom to taking pictures with Lily (after you tell Mom about it, which might be a one-time event that locks you out if you make the wrong choice).

Yea maybe I did something wrong somewhere because I'm not even getting an option to tell Mom about anything. It looks like my only options are to keep breaking the taboo or make her love incest.

Also, do you happen to know if you can get locked out of triggering the teamup between Erica and Lily? I've already made Erica my girlfriend and have done the get to know and workout option a few times without her saying anything about her financial situation.

Is that because those events aren't actually written yet?
The events for the story are also written (see this post). Candace is a mostly forgotten character, which can probably be contributed to the following:
  1. She's obtained late into the game, requiring Ophelia's questline to be completed
  2. Out of all of the department lead roles, her's has the least impact
    • Sarah (Lead HR) does the weekly monday meetings with several events tied to that
    • Alexia (Lead Marketing) has a few events tied to her such as patents and advertising
    • Ashley (Lead Production) drives the personal serums mechanic for MC
    • Stephanie (Lead Research) has several events tied to her
    • Ellie (Nanobots) even has events tied to her unique role/background
  3. Starbuck seems more focused on the city council plotline and having character plots tie into that

Rather tragically Candace is more of a throwaway character that doesn't fit as well into the future plans for LR2.

I'm going to use this post to share a comment made by Starbuck on the Discord:
Starbuck said:
Feature: Scheduling System
April 26th, 2025


Make a new event scheduling system. As we continue to increase the size of the game and the number of girls and systems available, events are beginning to step on each other and it is possible for events to be missed or skipped accidentally due to the low availability of time slots.

The new scheduling system should make it clear to players what events are occuring when, and allow for some level of interactivity. Schedule is made on a rolling weekly basis, so players can see a week in advance what events are scheduled when. If a mandatory event isn't scheduled for a time slot, show players what optional events are scheduled for a given time slot.

This feature is partially implemented, but it will remain in beta for some time while all existing events are converted to use it. Events will be converted to use the scheduling system as I get to their characters when I convert them to the Story Path system detailed above.

Additional functionality not yet implemented, is for MC and his personal secretary to be able to interact with his schedule, EG plan dates or cancel/reschedule them.

They just added a new route to discovering Candace via the new Nora story path..... Don't think it's fully completed but the groundwork is there, so maybe once that route is completed then Candace may have more work done to her

So, how stable is the codebase? I tried making a couple of mods (mostly tweaking a few events) but the number of times I had to re-learn the base code and re-write the mods due to refactoring and code changes made me stop trying around 0.51.

Why use console commands when you can change it with the built in cheat at the bottom of the screen.

Best to talk to the dev's on there Discord about modding questions.
They are very active on Discord linked on the OP.

About 3 of 7 of the events are complete. Also, I'm in the process of creating an alternate route for Candace so she can also be unlocked through Nora's events, so I'm not in a hurry to go through and make a temporary fix for her content when a more permanent one is coming along soon.

Candace and Ophelia will take more story time when I get around to doing the 4th city council member. Currently:
Jennifer's boss - Financial
University Dean - Education
Penelope - Enforcement
Ophelia's ex / Candace ex - "Services"
Unnamed competitor - Health

Right now there is just a single corruption path for each of the first two, with Penelope being planned for the next major update.

# Someone asked about changing the positions of locations on the map.
# All Room objects have an attribute called map_pos which references their [x, y] position on the map grid.
# e.g the newely added strip_club has a map_pos of [6, 5] meaning 6 on the x- axis from the left and 5 on the y- axis starting from the top.

room.map_pos = [x, y] # This will re- position the location on the map.
room.visible = True # Determines if the location is visible on the map.
room.public = True # If set to False then people will not roam into the location unless specified.
room.formalName = "new name" # Changes the name displayed on the map.

# If a room does not have the sexual positions you would like available it is most likely due to not having the correct objects available.
# You can add any objects to the room by using the add_object function together with a "make object" function.

room.add_object(make_wall()) # Adds a wall that can be leaned up against etc.
room.add_object(make_floor()) # Adds a floor to the room that can be used for sex.
room.add_object(make_bed()) # Adds a bed to the room.
room.add_object(make_window()) # Adds a window to the room.

# NOTE: room needs to be replaced with the variable of the room you want to edit.
# There are a couple of ways to do this. Easiest would be to go into the room and use mc.location which references your current location (room)

mc.location.map_pos = [x, y] # This edits map position of the current room you are in.
mc.location.add_object(make_bed())

list_of_places[0].map_pos = [x, y] # Replacing 0 with another number e.g 10 will reference a different room. You can do list_of_places[0].name or formalName to see which one it is you are editing.
list_of_places[0].add_object(make_bed())

strip_club.map_pos = [x, y] # This uses the variable name that the room is saved to. Names of all the rooms can be found in script.rpy ca. half-way down the label create_test_variables at lines 9150~ to 9500~.

# You can also add actions to a room by appending it.
room.actions.append(sleep_action) # This will allow you to sleep in the room. Adding actions to a room you can basically move the office into your bedroom.

#If your play through is having problems with the start of renovations use the following console command
mc.business.event_triggers_dict["home_improvement_unlocked"]=True
this will start the process so all you will need to do after the command is to check your phone and start.

first command to enter is
long
it will stop renpy from cropping the output (very annoying for long lists)

list_of_traits[#].name
returns the name of the #th trait (production schemes are mechanicaly a trait too), begins at 0 -> list_of_traits[0].name

dir(list_of_traits[0])
returns all the fields of the first trait. selected excerpts with more guess than knowing what they do:

attention - increases serum attention penalty containing this trait when sold to public
duration - all traits are summed up to final serum duration
side_affect_chance - all traits are summed up to determine the randomly assigned trait effect chance when unlocking (mastery reduces that chance)
slots - adds trait slots (duh)

to use these, enter like name:

list_of_traits[0].slots = #
where # is the new number

tip: always use commands without parameters first to see what its set as to get an idea for the usage

list_of_traits[0].slots
displays as

list_of_traits[0].slots
1

generate_daughter(self, force_live_at_home = False, age: int = None, job: JobDefinition = None)

the_person.generate_daughter(True, 19)

and if the girl you want to have a sister with doesn't have a mom npc on the board... just do this

the_person.generate_mother(True, 42)

Thanks Elkrose
Is there a cheat to edit fertility/pregnancy chance? I know there was one or more? in the original LR2 but variables have all changed by now and iirc, the old fertility raising cheat doesn't work though I don't remember the cheat that I used. I think it might have been the first cheat noted in the comment linked below

https://f95zone.to/threads/lab-rats-2-v0-51-1-vren.7260/post-6144795

EDIT: NVM, the first one seems to work now..

the_person.fertility_percent = #

Use URM. It's easier.
