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

[norbertmc]

Very minor feature request: In the R&D Division, on the "Design New Serum" screen, it would be really handy if the Mastery Level could be displayed on mouse-over, and not only when a trait is added to a new design.

In practice, this often means clicking traits on and off a design, trying to minimize the fault chance, especially when making contract designs and the exact specific traits don't matter, just the stats for it. Just seeing the value on the mouse over would remove a lot of click on, click off repetition, at least for me. So that would be a nice QoL improvement.

A neat game improvement would be to add contracts that require certain traits as well as simply certain values, to make the contract designs a little more of a puzzle. That may be more of a base game ask though. But the whole trait matching for contracts feel like it's a half-done job with a lot of unexplored potential for fun.

The mouse over part should be easy to do, the contract design part is in the hands of Vren. I will pass the request to the mod discord and we will see how it turns out

Can confirm it occurs without using cheatmenu to change sluttiness. Only used cheat menu for pc/company stats and research completion

Unofficial bugfix got updated to prevent slutiness that got increased by flat slutiness traits from dropping below the value before the serum got applied

 

[Thaunatas]

I try to avoid changing the game files during one playthrough because that often breaks the save and i have to start over
but i made an update of this specific file, the only differences were the inclusion of the taboos as conditions before fetishes could be trained, so nothing that has influence on the problem (there are no taboos left with starbuck)

I think i'll wait until i start over anyway, that is the usual point where i update everything (game, bugfix and mod)

Your issue got fixed in the beta branch of the mod, so the fix will be included in the next official mod release

Your request concerning the mouseover for mastery information just got added to the beta branch and will be included in the next mod release.

Wahey! Thanks everyone. Much appreciated.

I hope this is what you are looking for

THANK U VERY VERY MUCH!

I checked moms computer in 49.2.1, 49.2.2 and 49.2.3 without issues. Neither of the updates touched the file. Maybe you are using an additional mod that modified the file?

Nope, no other mod than this one and the only tweaking I do is for this horrible MC energy usage just talking. Can't keep from losing 15 with small talk but could waste all of it with flirts and complements. Only mom bedroom change I made was not bleeding energy searching it. It has me baffled but all better now. Thank you for your reply though.

Can someone answer some questions about nano Bots? Like how do they work? I have unlocked them all and researched and even upgraded them all. But it gives messages like suggestivity reduced effectiveness of bots. Do I need to give them to someone without and suggestive serum? Also I have been dosing LOTS of girls and only two have developed anal fetish and none have developed the secondary fetished with the anal bots. Is there some order or training I need to do to get both the traits of the nanos? Like the anal bots have a secondary fetish of incest but how do I use the nanos to inflict that fetish? Any help would be appreciated thank you

I believe that's Camilla, the lifestyle coach.

While a nanobot trait is active on a person, it checks each turn if one of the OPINIONS related to the nanobot trait is increased.

List of opinions tied to Nonobot Traits:

FETISH_BASIC_OPINION_LIST = ["giving handjobs", "giving tit fucks", "being fingered", "kissing", "masturbating", "big dicks", "getting head", "lingerie"]
    FETISH_ANAL_OPINION_LIST = ["anal sex", "doggy style sex", "anal creampies", "showing her ass"]
    FETISH_CUM_OPINION_LIST = ["being covered in cum","drinking cum", "cum facials", "giving blowjobs", "anal creampies", "creampies"]
    FETISH_BREEDING_OPINION_LIST = ["bareback sex","vaginal sex", "creampies", "missionary style sex"]
    FETISH_EXHIBITION_OPINION_LIST = ["public sex", "not wearing underwear", "not wearing anything", "showing her tits", "showing her ass", "skimpy outfits", "skimpy uniforms", "sex standing up" ]

While the Nanobot Trait is active, it accumulate progression points. Once those points reach a certain amount, one of the opinions will be increased (hate -> dislike -> no opinion -> like -> love). The amount of points accumulated each turn is based on suggestibility of the person. The higher, the more points per turn.
While the nanobot trait is active, it also checks if the required opinion scores of the associated fetish are met, and randomly triggers the fetish event for that person (if they havent developed that fetish before). Some Unique characters cant develope certain fetishes by default.
Currently there are only 3 fetishes in the game that can be developed: Anal, Breeding, Cum. The Incest IT expansions only adds the incest opinion to the list of opinions that can be increased with the nanobot trait.
Once the nanobot trait wears of, you get a message telling you how far the progress of the nanobot trait progressed on increasing the next opinion score.

Is it possible to unlock the city hall? I see in saveeditor that the city hall has a position on the map but dont know how to unlock it?

You can unlock the city hall with this two console commands:

city_hall.map_pos = [6,1]
city_hall.visible = True

Seems like in the save editor you can only see the "map_pos" but not the "visible" setting.

When hiring someone (Lily) as waitress in the strip club there is an exception. Since the relevant code is part of the mod I post it here instead of the main thread ...

... replacing "add" with "append" seems to help.

I've encountered an error with Gabrielle while she quit working for me, is it a story breaking error or nothing big?

I'm playing the last version of the mod, and found another bug. Whatever is the last thing that you write on the character creation, name, surname or company name, is left blank. I started and had a blank company name, then started again thinking I must have leaved it in blank, and wrote it first, then wrote surname and name. Now my character has no name, Lily has no name for some reason too, only "???" and everyone refers to my character as stranger. Used cheats to change the name, and now my character has name, but it doesn't solve the problem of everyone acting as if they didn't know who they're talking with.
