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

[On'Jin]

Hello everyone!

I have some more question about the game, our sister/mom (and maybe other girl) and some event.

So, I'm currently on day 49, and I have Lily offering to strip to some extra cash, I said yes, and I noticed that I can't take Instapic anymore, I'm guessing is because of the stripping thing?

And for the instapic, I'm wondering, I helped her take a pic from time to time, and asked for underwear shot, but nothing much happened, if I'm remember correctly, there should be more content related for her instapic, no? Maybe something related with "iris", the influencer? should i have asked for more shot (topless and nude i guess? )and helped her take more instapic?

Also, I still have not sex with Lily or mom, when I initiate thing, I can do foreplay and Oral thing easily (well, for mom I have to push her a little for one or two oral option), I'm guessing I need to "force" anal thing with them to have sex? I was waiting to unlock option for sex before going to anal, and I think it's my error here, no?

Also, some question for Gabrielle, our cuz, i remember that she work at the gentlemen club, i passed some evening there watching show but she never showed, do i have to wait for them to move at their Apartment?

Also, i never got the Instapic of Stephanie (friend from university), Sarah (childhood friend), and Alexia (friend who work on the coffee and we invite to work for us), i know that we can get the instapic of Stephanie from a past run, and i'm wondering if it's random, if i "skipped" the instapic because i worked too fast on her love/lust, or something like that?

I was wondering about this one because of the "Social Media Advertising" rule work, and after checking, i only have 3 instapic from worker.

Thank you in advance !

Yes, in this game, the "stairway to heaven" has anal unlocked before vaginal (even though the positions of the menu makes it look like vaginal comes first). At least that's how it is for the family members, because they consider vaginal to be "real sex" and anal to be more of a compromise.

After Gabrielle moves out, there's an event where you can catch her in Lily's bedroom, and the stripper chain of events will go from there.

For advance in Instapic, you need to go on your phone and ask your sister to (in order I guess) : Show underwear, show boobs and be naked. Then the next time you make insta shots after making one request, she will ask you to take more photos.

For Gabrielle I guess you need them to move on their own appartment. Then after some time your aunt will ask you if you know where go your cousin at night and you can trigger the next event from now on.

I think you need to catch her in Lily's bedroom and start blackmailing her before that event will trigger (IIRC).

I was having a problem with the Chemist's Baby Girl side quest where she would not have a home on the map.

I found this quote as a start but it did not help (and is not necessary for the final fix).

this should create a new home and add it to the map

the_person.home = None
if the_person.home is None: the_person.generate_home
if the_person.home is not in list_of_places: list_of_places.append(the_person.home)
if the_person.home not in list_of_places: list_of_places.append(the_person.home)

In the /game/plotlines/SideCharacter/Chemist_Daughter.rpy file around line 169 you need to add them to the downtown_home_hub

    #TODO her apartment which is actually different than the place she was earlier.
    $ the_person.draw_person()
    $ the_person.learn_home()
    $ downtown_home_hub.people.append(the_person)        <---  add this line

you can fix this in an existing game if you have done the quest by pasting this into the console

downtown_home_hub.people.append(get_chemist_daughter())

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.

Hello, thank you for the answer !

Here i was waiting for vaginal interaction to come...

I remember the bit about Gabrielle stealing money from Lily, but i thought that the stripper chain was before that, like two separate event, so thank you for the information !

For advance in Instapic, you need to go on your phone and ask your sister to (in order I guess) : Show underwear, show boobs and be naked. Then the next time you make insta shots after making one request, she will ask you to take more photos.

Hello, thank you for the answer !

Good to know for the Instapic, like i said i skipped asking to thing with the phone, so i was confused when there was no more content with that !

And thank you for the information about Gabrielle too.

I think i will relaunch a run now that i know more thing, advance more with sis and mom, and try to advance other girls story.

Still wondering how to get instapic from girls though, i played some more days yesterday to try (like 10/15 days), and got nothing.

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?

 

[Iced]

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.

 

[rb813]

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

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?
