Ren'Py Abandoned Lab Rats 2 [v0.51.1] [Vren]

[Strec]

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.

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

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.

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

 

[eldoen]

i need help with that aswell cant figure it out

I can say looking at the code it is possible and must be done during the sis mom instapic interaction.

Searched the thread and didn't come up with anything relevant, but is anyone else having issues with the new 'serum lactation' trait? I unlock the trait using clarity and pick an existing serum design to associate with the lactation, but when I finish researching the trait and go to design a new serum there's no 'serum lactation' trait on the list anywhere.



Is there some intermediate step I'm missing? I'm not using any mods or custom files.

Edit: Nevermind. I think I missed clicking a "Select design" button when first unlocking the trait, so I've been wasting my R&D time just researching empty lactation traits without a serum assocated. User error.
(But perhaps an understandable error given the UI. Finding the right button to click requires a bit of scrolling if you're dealing with a complex serum.)

Why not try

You must be registered to see the links

? Just use login via google-acc and take it (no payment needed).
Gonna attach file just in case

It was only after I had posted that I realized it was directly available off of Patreon as a link. But I was also wondering if anyone had loaded it and if fix actually worked (since seems stupid to replace one file, if peeps screw up then what was point). Shoulda prolly just reposted an entire fixed version, but whatever (although by now maybe someone has).

Why they don't add proper animations instead of working on the serums, I don't want women posing I want them to suck dick and be fucked. Also is there a mod that randomizes how the premade charecters look? Mother, sister, best friend, professor, etc?

This is the last i would hope for in this game. Vren is a coder not an Animator or graphic specialist, so i think that game will never come near some other games in the quality of looks and scenes.

I don't know the mods to well, but you can change it for yourself to your liking.
in the /game/random_lists.rpy (open it with notepad++ or something that don't mess up code)
you can change most of the things and make them as you like them ...
it starts with Stephanie in line 1031

as a Example mother starts in line 1184

### MOM ###
        mom_wardrobe = wardrobe_from_xml("Mom_Wardrobe")

        global mom
        mom_base = Outfit("Jennifer's accessories")
        mom_base.add_accessory(diamond_ring.get_copy())
        mom = create_random_person(name = "Jennifer", last_name = mc.last_name, age = 42, body_type = "standard_body", face_style = "Face_1", tits = "DD", height = 0.94, hair_colour = "black", hair_style = long_hair, skin="white", \

            stat_array = [3,2,4], skill_array = [5,2,0,0,2], sex_array = [2,1,3,0], start_sluttiness = 7, start_obedience = 12, start_happiness = 108, start_love = 8, \
            title = "Mom", possessive_title = "Your mother", mc_title = "Sweetheart", relationship = "Single", kids = 2, base_outfit = mom_base)

        mom.add_role(mother_role)
        mom.set_schedule(kitchen, times = [3])
        mom.set_work(mom_offices, work_times = [1,2])

        mom.home.add_person(mom)
        mc.phone.register_number(mom)

what you want to change is most likly this part

body_type = "standard_body", face_style = "Face_1", tits = "DD", height = 0.94, hair_colour = "black", hair_style = long_hair

for body_typ there are three options
"thin_body"
"standard_body"
"curvy_body"

for face_style you have
"Face_1" until "Face_14" but "Face_10" is missing, do not use it.

for tits you have (remember to not give her the biggest tits yet, there will be a quest ....
"AA" "A" "B" "C" "D" "DD" "DDD" "E" "F" "FF"

For hair_colour you have
"blond"
"brown"
"black"
"chestnut"

For hairstyle you have
short_hair
curly_bun
messy_hair
shaved_side_hair
twintail
ponytail
windswept_hair
messy_ponytail
bobbed_hair
bowl_hair
long_hair
braided_bun
messy_short_hair

i hope that helps you to make the Characters to your liking.

I prefer them working on game mechanics myself. It was easy enough to mod in animations with very little coding skill needed. You could have a basic version up and running in under an hour. I've spent probably on 100 hours on my own personal version incorporating animations from a dozen different games such that all the unique characters have unique scenes for every position played by my favorite characters from other games. The random girls also have animations chosen by skin and hair color. I'm working on age based ones too now. Its not a mod one can distribute since you are taking animations from other games, but for personal use it is easy enough to do.

Ah well, I also had no idea about what fix was needed.
Felt kinda stupid on next day about it :/

I'm actually kinda surprised that someone hasn't just modded game to slap old faces from original game onto this game's faces (at least for the ones that would work, not for new characters). Doesn't seem to be any serums that directly modify face or face shape (where are the duck lip serums?), so theoretically shouldn't have any issues for face point geometry. Good excuse for someone to play with TensorFlow... I don't mind either way, but yeah, as far as I can tell Vren is using Blender to make bodies since still hasn't done any extra poses for interpolation (if not Blender, please someone let me know what is being used instead!).

A single pose is like 5000 different renders so not too surprising that new poses is low on the priority list. If you unpack one of the image files you can see that a single pose requires a render of every hair and every piece of clothing for each body style and each breast size. Then you need textures for every facial expression in each skin tone, etc. Not an easy task to say the least.

Different clothes and body style, breast size, facial expression, that makes sense. But every strand of hair?!?!??! That's just masochistic... I mean, nobody wants the hair helmet, but this sort of begs a skeletal system.

I hope having new faces and more generally new morphologies (size, fat/slim, ...) is easier else we will also see the same few models for long.

Faces would be easier. There is a about 2 dozen textures per face style per pose. Maybe 100 provided you kept the makeup patterns in similar areas and could just reuse one you already had. Fat or slim changes though would require all new clothing and breast size renders so... Height changes though are easily changed. The game actually scales the bodies when the character is created between 0.8 and 1.0 in scale. Though the heads I think are going to remain the same size so going any smaller might look odd or need new stuff.

Bug Report:
Money Bug in v0.47.1

\game\major_game_classes\business_related\Business.rpy
Line: 566 & 583
Functions: get_aspect_price & get_aspect_percent

"physical" and "sexual" aspects do not make use of X_aspect_sold resulting in incorrect prices.

As far as i understand this should be a bug unless for some reason "physical" and "sexual" aren't meant to make use of X_aspect_sold mechanics.

Fix:
replace SECOND occurance of X_aspect_price in "sexual"&"physical" with X_aspect_sold
Lines: 572,575

replace X_aspect_price in "sexual"&"physical" with X_aspect_sold
Lines: 589,592


I've noticed that my "sexual" aspect is constantly at 200% and rougly ~17$ across 3 different playthroughs, a value which nevers seemed to drop, despite the fact that "medical" and "mental" are worth ~4$ which in turn made me produce only "sexual" serums for easy moneymaking. Makes the game way too easy imo please fix that. I've got close to 300k in 2 months without really trying and even that is low taken into account the fact that i limited myself to not buying policies before unlocking new serum tiers.

There is also a problem with contracts, if a contract has attention <= 0 and sexual>=1 then its impossible to finish.
There are no sexual traits without attention, in general most of contracts are impossible to finish given all avilable traits.

still waiting to see if such a contract is generated in 48. there are several other random ones that generate that as you say with available traits are not possible

A couple of changes they shared that I don't see in the patch notes:

I've lowered the contract requirements by a small amount so it should be easier to meet them. Minimum attention is now 1 instead of 0 as well, so at lower tiers it will be possible to have some of every aspect.

 

[Strec]

I think the current way to get money is too easy so I'll make it harder ...
Arf, customers whine, I'll make this easier ...

2 months lost, next try...
