How do i raise obedience with the family members? I know i can get the mothers up fairly early but no clue how to do the other 3.

There are a couple of events that can raise obedience a bit, but they don't amount to much. Since you can't insult their work (as you can with employees) the most reliable method in the early/mid game is cranking up their suggestibility/temp. sluttiness/love with serums and conversation, then using sex to increase obedience and convert temp. sluttiness to core.

Update: With GitGud and the bug fix updated this problem has been resolved.....

Anyone else having employees go missing (not appearing in the list when in that room)?

They show up as hired but are not in their locations nor are they producing anything. Have had it happen in both supply and production. Cant fire them or conduct any other interaction. They do occasionally pop up for random events. Have not been able to find them in any other location either. Happened with GitGud mod and bug fix and also happened with just GitGud (no bugfix). Both clean installs with new games. Haven't tried it in vanilla game yet. Will update when I do.

[OsoSober]

is there a way to find out who is pregnant and not? nothing shows on any of my screens for anyone.

Ive been told that there is meant to be an icon on detailed display

 

[OsoSober]

If you get a girl pregnant, eventually they will have an event where they tell you they are pregnant, though it's easy to figure that out based on their reaction to a creampie starting right after they get pregnant. After the event, it will say in their details screen that they are pregnant. That I believe is the only way to tell whether someone is pregnant or not before it starts to show.


Nothing that i can see in the game shows pregnant status

 

[B4dFr3d]

This game has more crashes than a Russian highway.

 

[ahump]

I managed to solve the issue by changing the line "the_person.remove(pregnant_role)" (in "game/game_roles/role_pregnant.rpy", line 323) by "the_person.special_role.remove(pregnant_role)".

This fixed it, thanks a lot!

You need to hire them by an audition in the company... you can only hire people met on the street in the mod either as far as I recall

The link you posted is great but I still don't understand just how to even do the stuff with her research. Talking to people has me get a .2 boost to mastery of traits, and assuming that is a percentage that means I'd have to dose someone and flirt with them 500 times for full mastery of any of Nora's traits. Conceptually I understand that Nora needs you to do 'something' with specific characters, but I don't see how to raise the Nora traits in any good way.

Nora's research traits (where she hands you a trait to research and increase to mastery level 2) and her questionnaires (where she asks you to study people with interesting features) are two separate things. I think the two are getting a little mixed up.

"Observing" someone (i.e. talking to them while they're under the influence of serum traits) increases mastery level by a flat 0.2; this is not a percentage. So to increase mastery one level you need to talk to someone under the influence 5 times, costing you 75 energy for e.g. 5 x small talk.

Finding someone with a natural 7 in all three attributes is unlikely, but unneccessary: If you unlock the three temp. stat boost serums beforehand, just find someone with three natural fives and give them a booster serum before studying them for Nora's questionnaire.

I think it may have bugged out for me then, will try again another time.

 

[zeerin]

NGL, the models are super ugly and have a bad habit of having old men-looking faces, but being able to make a girl play Russian roulette with her titty size makes up for it. Seriously, why can you put increase breast size and reduce breast size on the same serum?

 

[Vitklim]

The models are average compared to some other shit I've seen, it's the lack of an actual h-scene that kills it for me.

Speaking of, I ran into a funny bug with the max level serum. I put every stat increase into it: Suggestability, love, obedience, breast size, pregnancy chance and speed - and accordingly called it "Everything". Thing is, after giving it to a girl, her clothes disappear except for a square in the middle, where the textures still show as normal. Lol.

 

[bsjfan69]

Another empty update, other than seemingly " half off regions for all clothing items ". What even is that? I loaded up the outfit manager (being clothing and all) but I can't see anything new.

 

[Carmen Sandiego]

Having played through basically the entire game, this is both better and worse than the first one. As a game, this one is very fucking good. But what is the point of playing when you don't see the content you downloaded it for? The only h-stuff you actually get is the girl naked in different positions with a slight animation. Ok, but that is literally not an h-scene. So why bother.

I'm not sure I understand what your complaint is, compared to Lab Rats 1, when the "h-scenes" are setup exactly the same way. I mean literally exactly the same way. The only difference is one is Honey Select and the other is Daz.

 

[Brontanius]

Is there a way to go above 200 energy/a way to increase your partner's energy? im trying to increase obedience permanently with a person but cant seem to go at it for long enough to properly increase it.

 

[fulcrum]

there are several energy booster traits, but you will crash them into a coma when they come down. unless you use console commands.

the_person.energy
the_person.maxenergy (or energymax or something like that)

Alright, you know what, my mistake. I went back to the first game specifically to check, and came to the conclusion that the h-scenes there weren't as great as I remembered either.
The only distinct difference is the fact that scenes in the first game (the text at least) weren't randomised bullshit that you can recite verbatim after an hour of playing the game. Maybe that's why it felt more fresh.

The lack of unique events is probably by far the second lamest thing about this otherwise great game, right after my initial complaint of not being able to see the player model (or at least a disembodied dick) during h-scenes. Although this one may be more down to taste.

So, same conclusion, different premise. Great gameplay, tick, has pregnancy content, tick, artstyle is competent, tick, is easy to navigate and cheat through the grind, tick.
A lot of great stuff, but for me the deal-breaker is the combo of repeating situations/text and the absence of a player model in the h-scene, leaving literally everything to the imagination.

BTW if you buy advertising before getting alexia, you can revert it by using mc.business.policy_list = []
If you don't mind re-buying your policies again. This will allow the Alexia business card event to fire.
Also A trait I have not seen in the Nora list, is person is late stage pregnancy, gives an immediate breast size boost, +75% fertility, ignores BC, and something else I can't quite remember.
