Just a heads up for anyone using my trait mods:

Tristim/Starbuck seem to have made some changes to how traits are designated in the source code (they're more organized and in .py files) in the recent beta releases. Additionally, they changed the script.rpy file to use a cleaner approach to storing traits. DO NOT INSTALL MY TRAITS MOD - as it includes a modified script.rpy file to pre-load the cheated traits into the research list - since it will result in an error log every single time.

I won't be updating my trait mod due to the refactoring being done to clean up the code for LR2, but others may update theirs for update releases. Also, I'm just not as active on this thread as I use to be lol.



If anyone with some Python knowhow wants to package the code from my trait mod into their own for future updates please feel free to do so. You don't need to credit me either (it's a pirate forum anyways).
Here's an updated version of your current CheatTraits mod. No idea when they're going to change the rest of the stuffis but this one was easy enough to fix and I have tested that it works. Cheers!

EDIT: To confirm I have tested on the current version released as of today 12/28/2023, no idea after today.

Dunno if modders will see this, but I think the "Sizable Workforce" goal is bugged in the BETA build. Tried getting it both via save scumming and the manage goals option with Camilla. With fresh blood, research and development, and sizable workforce as options, only the first two ever showed up. When I set my availables to just R&D and sizable, when I finished R&D it started giving me goals from the entire pool of options, like liquidity and daily profit.

Recently started playing the most recent beta files after not playing this game for about 3 or 4 months and wanted to take a second to say that all of the contributors/modders have been doing a phenomenal job. The amount of changes and progression in both story and quality of life of the game feel immense and quite thorough even within those few months.

This game has steadily been climbing to the top of my favorites and I'm excited for future changes. Great job!

we need males in this. we or they can do ntr
You can enable NTR scenes via the "MOD Settings" while in MC's bedroom. The only thing that isn't possible (as far as I know...) is the ability for girls to get pregnant from someone other than the MC (which could be a unique addition for employees that have significant others).

So here's an unfun fact: Since November 27th, Tristim made a rather signficant (despite small) change to how uniforms are handled. For the less code savvy, the change that was made now auto adds undergarments if the business uniform is set to a "naked" outfit (i.e. all body layers are left empty). For the more code savvy, feel free to check out the spoiler below outlining the exact change:

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Since there is no in-game method for setting "nudity_is_legal" to true (it's ALWAYS initialized as falsed) you can use the following command via the console:
Code:
mc.business.nudity_is_legal = True
Alternatively, as of TODAY (12/29/2023), you can choose whether you want topless or bottomless uniforms enforced. For topless, you'll need to corrupt the police chief AND the city administrator by getting EITHER their sluttiness to 51+, or their obedience to 181+ and then unlocking the policy via "special policies". To get bottomless uniforms, enable the "commando dress code policy". Note: for girls with C cups or smaller, they will use the fully nude uniform.



Personal Note: I get why Tristim/Starbuck made these changes... I'm just slightly annoyed that I spent an hour tracking down when/where this change happened. However, the optimist in me believes that this type of change means that we'll start to see Christine (Police Chief), Christina Vanderberg, and Penelope (Administrator) start to play a larger role in the overall world. It also seems to tie in with the loosely overarching plot of MC creating a pharmaceutical empire to dominate the city he lives in (pretty big leap in scope compared to LR1).

Anyway, theory-crafting aside, just keep in mind that these guys and gals are putting a lot of effort into keeping LR2 alive, so it's impossible to be upset with them for changes they make :)

Doneitall: Any plans to enhance wardrobe with new outfits?? long overdue
Here's a link to a post discussing how large of a scope that is. Vren was breaking new grounds in building his own engine within Ren'Py to quickly add new characters to the game without having to pose/render them every single time. You can probably get away with some fancy layering techniques since Ren'Py is technically a 2-D engine (the third dimension is just the current "layer" you're on), but that would still require rendering the same outfit for every variation of height, weight, breast size, and pose (this number is not even close to feasible).

There are always clever tricks that can cut down on the total number of rendering that needs to be done, but that shouldn't be the primary focus of Tristim/Starbuck for the time being.

I am just a casual lurker, It was a coincidence that I had just quick fixed that cheat trait mod like 15min before Slick's post for my own personal use so I uploaded it. Definitely not looking to get into the modding scene or anything. If there is something I am using that is broken and the creator of the work says it's cool to post a fix then I will do so gladly. Sorry though, didn't mean to get anyone's hopes up with some huge contributions from me.

No worries! The original mod by Tristim/Starbuck includes a complex method for adding serum traits into the "list_of_traits" dict without modifying the base script (at least from what I understand). The primary issue is that I don't understand nearly enough about Python (and Ren'Py) to be able to create my own self contained mod that doesn't alter core files.

What I can fix in the moment is converting all of the cheated traits over into a .py file to conform with Tristim's refactoring that he's been doing for the past couple of months. This should future-proof the cheat traits (aside from providing a modified script.rpy file) for future updates.

They can start out as pregnant though. Hired a new employee that was already pregnant from her husband.

Wouldn't it make more sense to integrate whatever widget Free Cities are using for 3d models into it than keep using 2d ?

It seems fairly capable, even though the usage in FC isn't the greatest.

Can you find the command to increase mc's lust? I tried mc.lust = 1000; but that didn't work.
Not a command, but a solution:
the builtin cheat menu already has the option for manipulation of the variable lust. Given the place where you open the menu, you'll have to click your ingame forename and find the variable Lust within Main Stats.

I'm not sure what you mean. I already used a command to increase clarity to the millions. But the lust usually is always fluctuating because it is slow to gain but quick to deplete (when I cum). I don't know what you mean by 151. I was just looking for a quick command to increase lust to 1,000 temporarily. But since I didn't know the command, I spent a few minutes flirting with females on the phone and asking for nudes.
I don't think clarity and locked_clarity are the same. If you use mc.locked_clarity = 1000 or something, you likely change what you consider to be called lust. The 151 was just a short explaination on how i found the variable name, but it doesn't matter for your situation.
