I feel like the fanbase using an imprecise term for a solo amateur dev's porn game being held to the standards of serious development in the 'industry' might be a bit overly strict, but I also don't feel like it's worth arguing over and I hate to offend so I edited my post to use different terminology. I'm certain it will catch on ^_^

I'm planning a better early walkthrough than my earlier mess, complete with step-by-step instructions on how to unlock hundreds of Clarity by Tuesday night (with more practically whenever you want it) and the thorough explanation of production I completely forgot to include. I intend to have it posted by the end of the weekend

You dont get the point. THIS is the game thread - not the bugfix or a mod thread. Players come here to read and talk about the game and the minority has any relation to code. Yet they get thrown bits and pieces of code thrown at them with notions of 'things being fixed' - while they are not officially. action -> consequences. A shitload of posts of confused users is simply proof of that and those 'fixes' are just floating around afterwards with no-one taking responsibilities for them.

Most of the "fixes" posted in this thread only have the intention to make the game or a broken feature playable until an official fix is released. I dont think many users of this forum actually care about what the fix is called in the end or where it comes from, as long as its working. Just my two cents...

This is the vanilla thread, which has always been used for the discussion and support of the vanilla game in the form of instruction, advice, and amateur fan hotfixes (aka zigs) to help other players enjoy the game despite Vren's enthusiastic optimism. Many of the zigs posted here are either from the comments by fans on Patreon or are reposted there from here or PMed to Vren and have subsequently been added to the game officially by him. Even though he does not take part in the thread, this discussion and the zigs posted here further the development of the vanilla game greatly

I dug through the code concerning emily and I think I found the cause for the problem.

In /game/game_roles/role_student.rpy Line 40:

Code: 
def student_test_intro_requirement(the_person):
        if not the_person.event_triggers_dict.get("test_rewrite_intro_enabled", False):
            return False
        else:
            return True

    def student_test_requirement(the_person):
        if not the_person.event_triggers_dict.get("student_exam_rewrite_enabled", False):
            return False
        elif not university.has_person(the_person):
            return "Wait until she's on campus."
        elif day%7 == 5 or day%7 == 6:
            return "Closed on the weekend."
        elif time_of_day == 4:
            return "Too late to start the exam."
        else:
            return True

    def student_offer_job_requirement(the_person):
        if not the_person.event_triggers_dict.get("student_offer_job_enabled", False):
            return False
        elif mc.business.get_employee_count() >= mc.business.max_employee_count:
            return "At employee limit."
        else:
            return True
needs to be changed into:

Code: 
def student_test_intro_requirement(the_person):
        if not the_person.event_triggers_dict.get("test_rewrite_intro_enabled", False):
            return False
        return True

    def student_test_requirement(the_person):
        if not the_person.event_triggers_dict.get("student_exam_rewrite_enabled", False):
            return False
        elif not university.has_person(the_person):
            return "Wait until she's on campus."
        elif day%7 == 5 or day%7 == 6:
            return "Closed on the weekend."
        elif time_of_day == 4:
            return "Too late to start the exam."
        return True

    def student_offer_job_requirement(the_person):
        if not the_person.event_triggers_dict.get("student_offer_job_enabled", False):
            return False
        elif mc.business.get_employee_count() >= mc.business.max_employee_count:
            return "At employee limit."
        return True
Since I dont play the vanilla version of the game, I didnt test it myself, but since these lines of codes come from the (bugfixed) modded version of 0.49.2, they should be working. Give it a try

Hey I appreciate the help. I actually figured out and had forgotten that in the modded version, You have to go to Nora and tell her Emily is ready to take the test. Long story short, I am an idiot lol.

well turns out the serums i made were being auto sold ,i figured it out eventually but i am used to dealing with complicated mod stuff ,that section should have an easier to understand interface or the wording used.

another thing i have been wondering about ,how do you add serum to your inventory to use on girls not at the work place ,all the ones i have made can't seem to be added and i do have spare doses ,or can you only add the super perfect ones way later.

Go to your production department, there you can access your production stockpile and move serums to your inventory

Yeah, the vanilla game lacks a bit on the guiding through the basics side, and the interface has its flaws too. The modded version is much more apealling in terms of interface and readability, and also has easier to understand explanations. It might not be at the newest version of the game, but the qol upgrades and the additional contant make more than up for that

What is in the 0.51 poll?
Click to expand...
Basically everything but new serums... you can view the options, but need to pay dat Patreon $$ to vote. So far adding Lily/sister stuff is winning, although just shows relative bars for vote amount, no exact # of votes is publicly available.

Is anyone else getting crash reports like this when attempting to "talk to the test subjects" (for the final tier of research):
