how do I do this, I've tried everything and the mom already made all the accounts

in vanilla, this is part of doing the insta shoots with Lily. After doing shoots with Lily a few times and after you talked Jennifer into getting friendlier in one, you can suggest they go topless. I "convinced" her to do it by having her obedience high and just ordering her to, but I believe there were other options

don't really want to revisit the politics of the eventual results of Self Replicating template, but you just illistrated the reason for it.

Poorly thought out and implemented mechanic with no in game way to back out of it.

>don't really want to revisit the politics but I'll post something about this anyway lol
no worries. I like you, so talking politics is okay if you're gonna bring it up

I'm not sure if I should infer from your post that you agree with how the mod nerfs the self-replicating serum trait, but I think you can tell what I think about it. And from the majority of posts a search in the mod thread for "replicating" turns up since the mod changed it, including one in the last 24 hours, one could conclude that the mod's unnecessarily complex "solution" is not an intuitive fix. But it is a "fix" of sorts so I'm glad it's an option. I just think it should be optional even within the mod, if it isn't already - I admit I haven't checked. IMO Kaden's serum cleanse was a far more simple approach that solves the "problem", even if they think it may be unbalanced. lol, unbalanced vs the self-replicating trait?

The self-replicating trait in vanilla has its warning on the tin, and it is working how Vren intends it afaict from what they've said so I'm not seeking any change to its mechanics from the dev. But if Vren changes it then I'll be perfectly happy with that change as long as it doesn't nerf it into the ground as it is in the mod, and even then I'll probably just live with it because it's not that important a mechanic to the gameplay loop

My opinion will always be (for varying definitions of always) that any fix to the game should be as minimalistic as possible while achieving Vren's stated goals. The recent business mechanics change and the addition of contracts is a perfect example of this. I don't believe the contracts are functioning how Vren envisioned them, so I'm currently playing with Diconica's tuned _contract.rpy file. I still consider my game to be vanilla instead of modded because this is a focused fix to only one file that brings the gameplay loop more in-line with how Vren described it in the patch notes, and I recommend it. I truly hope that Vren adopts it instead of the current code, and even if they don't I will probably continue to use Diconica's code in my own game

I have already asked this question but have not received an answer. How to fire a mother from her job. I got to the point where she complains about the boss, I choose the option "I'll figure it out." What to do next so that she quit?

It's not in the game yet, which you could have learned by searching before asking even the first time

The attention mechanic is annoying, if anyone else finds it annoying edit game\major_game_classes\serum_related\SerumDesign.rpy and comment (write # at the start of each line) lines 119, 120, 121 so it looks like:

Is it just me or is this game not even close to the first game in enjoyment? I just feel nothing with all those copypasted/autogenerated characters.

 

[kuwayne]

Is there anyway to fix this crash?

 

[Warphorror]

Is there anyway to fix this crash?

Seems to be a crash due to using a mod, ask on the mod page and check if the mod version is the good one for the base game version.

when will he add threesomes and orgies.

When he decides to advance the plot.

just remember to read the comments so you know what fixes you need to make to it so it works.

for those wondering here is the comment replated to the busines.rpy



Yeah, what you want to do is open up game/major_game_classes/business_related/Business.rpy and change all references to default_aspect_price to self.default_aspect_price, starting at line 122.

i need help with that aswell cant figure it out

hey any of you python experts.

Ok, just wondering fertility day just seems to be a day created randomly for a month.
and not tied to the game day counter at all. the issue with it is it is a random number 0-30
may miss some but all other days months etc are based on the day counter.
mod 30 for months mod 7 for days etc.

so there is never a 30 in a month, the result will be 0-29

just wondering if a girl that has a most fertile day of 30 is causing the funkiness, with odd
display dates for due dates.

and here I thought the answer Waiting on vren was self explanatory.

Isn't it "day%30 + 1"?

 

[eldoen]

Isn't it "day%30 + 1"?

that is only needed if you are actually going to display a day in the month. accurately, as there is no 0 day,
I know I put that in mod, when the display changed in Vanilla, then it was improved upon. Haven't checked
the display part of Vanilla to see if Vren changed that or not, did tell him.

But the code
define the fertile day in a month, values would be a random number from 0 to 30
self.ideal_fertile_day = renpy.random.randint(0,30)

day_difference = abs((day % 30) - self.ideal_fertile_day)
would have up to 31 possible values before the absolute value is applied. but if (day % 30) = 0 then those values are from 0 to -30, and that will be the only time that 31 possible values after the abs is applied, all other values of (day % 30) will only have 30 possible values after abs is done.

now having a 30 day cycle is one thing but it must be mapped to the, but looking at this now beyond having 31 days and a miss calculation in day difference because the 30 days are not mapped initially or tracked, the assumption being it will always be that day of a month. minor details (horrible if you are dealing with calandar and dates in the real world but it is just a game)

I just can't find where or if the fertile date is displayed in Vanilla,

But if the same assumptions are made around pregnancy, I know and it has been shown that it is a display bug but investigating where that display bug is happening. hasn't been shown.

" I just can't find where or if the fertile date is displayed in Vanilla, "

game\game_screens\character_screens\girl_overview_ui.rpy

Near lines 70+

There is a lot of unfinished work concerning fertility and prengancy thing and I hope that during his progression in coding Vren will discover the variables and constants to replace the lot of harcoded values
