Can anyone make a functional changelog for this? Last time I looked on the github the giant wall of text scared me off, so even something as basic as 'extended this storyline, changed this character's look, and defeated these bugs' would help know what you guys have been doing.
Honestly, no. It would basically be a full time job to keep up with everything, even then there's no way everything can realistically make it into the log. Furthermore, your reply seems like you're trying to judge the difference between the original and this one? That list would be ridiculous if that's what you're looking for...

The quick/standard/epic/marathon game pace selection affect the number of times you can interact with girls.
Does it affect anything else? Or because you can talk less the game is automatically slowed down and that's the only thing it does?

Does anyone else think it would be nice if you could order them to not get dressed after? Especially if they got undressed in the first place because you spent energy commanding them. It would be basically the same thing as when Sarah gets you off before the HR meeting, and you tell her not to clean up for the meeting.
Don't make me tap the sign (which is in fact just a link to the discord)... ;)

i think Sarah's is unfinished. even after doing every available content for her, her progress is stuck with the "special service" stuff.
I mean, define "unfinished". What are you looking for that isn't there? If it's just a matter of stuff not being in the progress box, that should be easy for Starbuck (or one of the modders) to fix; if it's like a full-on story chunk it might be a bit longer since she's working on Jennifer next.

I noticed Candi's un-bimbofication was disabled like 2 updates before the hiatus (Cara's 1st remake). Erica seems to be stuck as well, she reverted back to being infertile and can't get the Breeding fetish despite pumping her with nanobots 24/7, can't do it through trance as well.
Yeah... :(

There's Ellie and Myra too.
tbf, and it's REALLY not much of a defense, neither ellie nor myra was ever really in a "finished" state. A big part of this is because it's often better to leave room for things to change as other characters develop, than to keep all character-related content isolated to just that one char. Like, we've all seen how limited the Mass Effect 2 DLC characters' interactions were compared to everyone else's, right? Kasumi and whats'-his-face just sit in their rooms and don't move or have different poses or comment on story stuff; none of the other squadmates offer commentary on their loyalty missions... it's very obvious that they weren't originally part of the game. Who wants that? I want my harem interacting with each other and for the world to feel vibrant - much harder to do that when you're like "okay and now this character is done and has nothing left to do story-wise the end". Also leads to having to make redundant characters if you need a particular role played down the road, and that's even worse. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Honestly, no. It would basically be a full time job to keep up with everything, even then there's no way everything can realistically make it into the log. Furthermore, your reply seems like you're trying to judge the difference between the original and this one? That list would be ridiculous if that's what you're looking for...
Largely this. What you CAN do, though, is you can scroll through the (keeping in mind, of course, that nothing since the last date that the first post was updated will actually be IN the front-page version) - there's a LOOOOOOOOT in there. If you know of a tool that can parse those out into a readable, not-redundant, able-to-account-for-multiple-back-and-forth changes (e.g. "Changed <thing> to say this" ... "Changed <thing> back to original value; Harvey's idea was stupid" ... "Changed <thing> to say something else entirely; you're stupid" and so on, all could be whittled down to not confuse readers), I'd be thrilled to look into it & see if it might be something we could incorporate into future updates!

(Actually, that sounds like a great product to make and actually SELL to places, if any of y'all are coders. I'll take a 5% commission for coming up with the idea )

But seriously though - I know we're all in a million of the damn things, and I know everyone says this, but the discord is very welcoming. There's no, like, "you must have jumped through these seven hoops to be allowed to have a request or post a bug or typo or idea" requirements... I mean, hell - you could come in and say a thing and then leave. We're okay with that.

It's *genuinely* the fastest way to get that stuff in front of the people what can and do make it happen, and the best way to ensure that it gets in front of them the way you wanted it to, without worrying about some asshole (like me) butchering it in transit. Give it a try! :)

This must've been asked while I was writing my other response so grats - you get your very own response!

Speed also actively affects how quickly events can happen. On standard, event timing is 7 days between events of the same type and 3 days between events with the same person. Quick goes faster, Epic/Marathon go slower.

Of note: THIS MAY ALSO BE WHY A LOT OF YOU ARE HAVING DIFFICULTY GETTING THINGS TO TRIGGER. PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOU ARE NOT EXPECTING STUFF TO OCCUR MORE QUICKLY THAN THE GAME WILL ALLOW OKAY THANK YOU GOOD BYE

Just like they forgot to put "This scene has yet to be written". And I also think that something went wrong with Sarah's questline.. before the hiatus you have to unlock her Breeding fetish to proceed with her wanting a 3some, but I somehow got the 3some before the fetish.

Yeah I know, man. Emphasis on "does anyone else think." As in, I wanted to see whether I was the only one who gave a shit about that before suggesting it.

But also, you should probably consider that some people might prefer the static discussion thread style (like here) over the chatroom style (like on Discord). Do you tell the devs hanging out on Discord they should come here, as often as you tell people here to go there? Because they should; this is a very active discussion forum that a lot of people comment on, and if the devs want good, varied feedback, this is a really good place to get it.

Fair point! :)

As a rule, no. Two reasons: 1) It's important to me that I not be read as *instructing* the people who have contributed infinitely more to the project than I have, on how to spend their time. Trist & Starbuck both know that F95 in general, and this thread in particular, exist/s, and can come check it out whenever. I have, however, mentioned several times when crossposting that this thread was the origin of the bug/idea/question, and also pointed out that I would have more time to help with other aspects of the project were I not cat-herding over here - said with affection and fondness of course, because....

2) you lot are my self-imposed, occasionally-Sisyphean task to handle, until such time as one of the other know-it-alls over there starts stealing my thunder ;-)

We've got a *connection*, you & I. We've bonded. Like super-glue. Or something, the metaphor got away from me.


edit: stealth-adding a third: there's a loooooooot of repetitiveness, redundancy, and saying-the-same-thing-over-and-over going on in this here thread, and I *GUARANTEE* you that if I suggested that they spend an afternoon here, they'd see nothing but the same easily answered chaff and i would then look like a jackass for making the suggestion in the first place. 'show it works. Some people catch red lights; i get made to look COMPLETELY wrong in public at every available opportunity.

Gotcha. I can mention that.

edit: and i don't think it's broken; star's just reworking how everyone's story goes, so some stuff is different from how it used to be. :)

After you take pictures with Lily and event with the mom may trigger, asking you why Lily has so much money. You can tell it is from InstaPic. Lily will yell at you for doing so, but you can convince her to do a shot with mom. And then go from there.
Thank you very much. I did it a couple of times already, but maybe not enough. I thought I was missing something else.

Hey, havea bit of a problem. I spent the entire day at home, not paying any bonuses or purchasing anything.
Earnings: 1611
Losses: 1483
Expected Profit: 128
Why am I having 1715 in losses? Where can I check what is eating money up?

It costs money every time one of your employees procures more supplies.

I love that if you click that you played Lab Rats 1, it mentions how the girls just went back to their normal lives after the serums wore off.

The girls were definitely fucking pregnant in my game. That'd be quite the normal life - a blurry summer you have fond memories of and also a child from.

I think it can be reasonably inferred that that's not the "canon" ending then, no? :)

It's a bug. Ashley was never intended to work in research. She's meant to have a special role in production. While in that role, she provides additional bonuses similar to Stephanie acting as research head and Sarah as HR director.

Do you know how can I move her to her division cuz it says "Locked for production assistant" and doesn't let me click it.

No clue tbh, I've never selected her to be anything but production. I've never even used the move division option, let alone for unique girls. Honestly, the whole thing seems like a bug. I'm not really sure why there was ever an option to put her anywhere but production in the first place.

You may want to check the Discord. At the very least to report the problem. There is also a channel dedicated to console commands where you MIGHT find a solution, but I imagine that you're gonna have to restart if you want any of the Ashley/Production Manager content.
