Ren'Py Lab Rats 2 - Reformulate [v2025 4.0.37]

[Grumlydude]

Sluttiness is handled a bit differently in the code compared to love and obedience (idk why). It can be referenced two ways, but only one of them can actually be changed in .rpy scripts (see spoiler 1).

This is because Pyhton has no restriction of visibility for properties/fields of an object. All properties are "public" like in Javascript for example.
As a workaround, devs use a commonly accepted syntax to describe a property that should only be used inside of an object ("private"). Those "private" properties are beginning with one or two underscore. For those two reasons you can see the internal value using ._sluttiness

In our case, when you want to show a calculated value based on the inner value, you define a method to show what you want. This is why you also have access to this value using .sluttiness syntax. But you cannot modify it because it's a "getter" method and not a real property.

    @property
    def sluttiness(self) -> int:
        return max(min(self._sluttiness + sum(amount for (amount, _) in self.situational_sluttiness.values()), 100), 0)

This last one is taking account of situational sluttiness (like "I don't like cheating on my husbnad!" or "I'm so happy") and is minmaxed to 0-100

Is there a plan to add any rape/forced stuff, cause for a game that has drugs and police it's a bit tame.

Lol, I wasn't talking about personal drama, I was talking about a transcript that gives a blow-by-blow of how complicated it actually is to mod this game. Apparently you don't even pass your own test on the "a bit of curiosity" criterion. Whatever you gotta do to feel superior to other people, I guess.

Clearly ibnarabi doesn't have a Functional Brain.

It happens when mom re-dresses. I think the robe is the culprit.

how hard would it be to make a mod witha better version of high capacity?

How to disable the obedience bleed? I can't go 5 minutes without it dropping below 200, how do I keep it at 300.

You mean the high capacity serum?

If you're on the mod version of the game, pretty easy. Otherwise, no idea.

- don't use serums which decrease it
- have an HR employee the work duty that increases it
- when interacting sexually use those options that increase it for that girl/woman, this differs from personality.
- cheat
- make serums that increase it and spread it around (possible through Serum Policies)
- make em submissive, dominant ones bleed obedience fast(er)

do you mean the reformulated version or the mods from the discord?

you need to make them slaves in your dungeon, otherwise they will drop 1 obedience each day until 200, girl that likes or loves taking control even lower (not confirmed, but i think theres not a limit)

If you have the decompiled game files (see this post here for how to get them), then navigate your way to the following directory:
...\game\major_game_classes\character_related and open the file Person_ren.py with notepade++. Navigate your way to line 1966 and 1974 and change self.change_obedience(-1, add_to_log = False) to self.change_obedience(0, add_to_log = False). Make sure you save the changes (ctrl + s).

Keep in mind that if you do follow fplay8881 's approach of turning them into slaves then girls with the dominant trait will always bleed obedience to a minimum of 200.

If you have some background in Python then not too difficult. Otherwise, it's easier to just type the following into the console (shift + o): high_capacity_design.slots=5. You can change "5" to how ever many extra slots you want, and this type of edit will only affect any future saves in that specific playthrough. Also, make sure you have the trait researched first before typing the command.

I mean the beta version. That being said, your question was already answered in the post above.

 

[Draakaap23]

Anyone else getting the icon, the one that means: 'check the map', almost constantly flashing on and off, when dialog screen is active?

Does anyone know how to lower the cost of a trance on a woman? It seems to keep going up and its becoming too much to be worth it

Clarity cost for training will only ever go up, not down (see spoiler).

However, you can just set base_modified_cost = self.base_cost to maintain a static value, or you can cheat and set base_modified_cost = 0 to avoid any clarity cost.

The decompiled file can be found in ...\game\major_game_classes\character_related, opening Trainable_ren.py, and navigating to line 49.

There is another solution not involving code changes : it's a repeatable reset of the training system.
/!\ Disclaimer : I have NOT TESTED this on my game as I want to keep a certain level of difficulty
In console, type the one of following command depending on what you want to reset:

for x in opinion_trainables: x.training_tag = ''.join(random.choice(string.ascii_lowercase) for _ in range(5))
for x in skill_trainables: x.training_tag = ''.join(random.choice(string.ascii_lowercase) for _ in range(5))
for x in stat_trainables: x.training_tag = ''.join(random.choice(string.ascii_lowercase) for _ in range(5))
for x in special_trainables: x.training_tag = ''.join(random.choice(string.ascii_lowercase) for _ in range(5))

It modifies the tag of trainables things, only in traning system. It's not used elsewhere in code.

Keeps 'em warm.

 

[SMC85]

I sort of recall talk of there eventually being a graphical restructure. Any news on that front?
