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

[MagInfer]

I would really like to understand why she got so much Happiness from this sexual encounter. This is a save from yesterday (I've been trying to reproduce it with no luck), but I don't remember doing anything particularly different from normal. It also happened one or two times with Lily a while back.

It's because of TRANCE: as you can see in lower right corner it says "change amplified by 100-200% due to trance" which is % based with suggestibility.
Your Gabriel has (middle top of screen, top of Age) 16% suggestibility; which means she has 16% chance to go trance (which has multiple phases).
Haven't played this for a bit, but she also needs to like/love that specific action to get happiness from it.
Can't remember tho if i had that much + for a single action tho.

I figured out that much, but I'm still not clear on why they were getting Happiness to be amplified by the trance in the first place. That doesn't happen normally...

Is it like a random chance of a girl getting happiness if she likes the action we're doing? Because it's definitely not happening all the time (even for actions I know they like). It seems like there are some sexual encounters where they're getting Happiness almost every action, but most times it happens not at all or maybe once.

What are the requirements for discovering sexual opinions through "Make small talk" option? I have hired a girl from Sarah`s "Initiate employee search" option, she has 78 happiness 4 love 191 obedience and 50% sluttiness, i was able to discover all her normal opinions through small talk, but no sexual ones. Am i missing something or is it a bug of some kind?

Are we getting a new stable version anytime soon?

I believe they need to LOVE the action to get the happiness or they need to Climax while doing said act.

Trance acts as a multiplier both for positive and negative happiness changes.

If that's all it is, why wouldn't they get the happiness every time I was doing that action or they were climaxing? There still has to be some randomness to it, right? Also, in the screenshots above, I was doing Kneeling Oral, and Gabrielle was gaining happiness even though she disliked Getting Head.

It is high sluttiness, maybe try to increase it with a serum or through arousal. 50 may be not enough, maybe 51 is. Also the topics are random so you may want to try few times and see if some sexy topics come up with higher sluttiness before making a conclusion.

 

[SilverFire]

Yeah, i think it`s 51 sluttiness, the very next day when she had 51 sluttiness i could discover her sex oppinions.

Wonderful question

 

[rb813]

I don't get why there's a button to set the amount of supply you would like to maintain. Is there ever any benefit to keeping it low?

Early on, setting it too high can drain your funds before you have a product you can sell effectively. Otherwise, set it as high as you can afford.

I have a few questions:

1. For tier2 serums which choice is better, the 2000$ prototype serum or to contact Nora?
2. Is there a girl i could hire as a programmer for the nanobots? I think i saw something somewhere about a coding girl or something like that...? And while on this subject, how many unique girls are there available to hire? I mean unique like Steph, Alexia, Sarah, etc, not randomly generated.
3. I`m at day 84 and Sakari is stuck at her home, she never left it, is this normal? Admittedly, i discovered Sakari`s location by asking Kaya about Kaya`s home, Sakari was just also there, but then she never left. In the story progress i see that i`m supposed to find Sakari in the morning at the clothes shop in the mall... but i never saw her there, she just sits at home all day long
4. Is there a way to increase a girl`s job experience other than from the random event in which she asks for more responsibilities and a raise?

 

[RAIC]

I have a question concerning the git cloning
I'm doing that for the first time and the process keeps freezing at the same time
As I have no experience with that I have no idea where to even start trouble shooting
Any suggestions?

1. That's mostly a situational choice. If you have the cash you can just go for the money, it's faster but you unlock the Uni location later.
2. I believe Ellie gets unlocked by not reaching out to Steph's contact and having mastery in the basic nanites.

4. I don't think so. You can raise the occurance of events (in the menues in you bedroom) though.

Pretty much what RAIC wrote. I'd like to add:

1. I never went with the $ 2000 prototype. If you contact Nora, it unlocks the university and gives you the chance to design unique serums
2. Just follow the nanobots storyline, sooner or later you'll meet a potential new employee
3. No idea
4. I think the chance for the random event to happen depends on the girl's stats. In my experience, if you improve their skills and abilities or significantly improve thier happiness/sluttiness/love, I noticed that there's an higher chance for them to come and ask for a raise.

First time trying for me too and found it's not freezing even though it looks like it is. Just let it run and wait, it will start moving.

I went for the money, and I haven't unlocked the uni as of day 80, is there something specific I need to do for that?

So the UI is ready for a foursome, what are the technical limitations in the rest of the code for foursomes (aside from not being implemented)

There is a mod on discord in which it is implemented, just not sure if that one is compatible with latest AIO version or needs latest dev branch. Looking at Mod should show what they did to make it work.

I feel like the biggest impediment would just be positions, since it's prohibitively difficult to make new poses, so you're limited by what kind of foursome setups you can simulate with the poses that already exist in the game. I guess you could do the usual threesome setups (one girl on top of the other who's eating her out) with the fourth just kinda kneeling to the side.
