Use UMR (linked in some other people's sig file) or another Ren'py save file editor to manually adjust those values to an artificially high number.How to continue girls story without grinding their stats/Affection?
As an alternative to URM you could use my mod; it's not as powerful as URM but simpler and faster to get all girls' love/lust upHow to continue girls story without grinding their stats/Affection?
I wrote a small mod that lets you skip the affection/lust point grind without having to go through the tedium of typing in cheat codes or having your save labelled with the cheater flag.
Features:
Usage Instructions:
- Sets all girls' affection and lust points to a value X unless they were already higher than X
- Can set a specific girl's love/lust points
- Written to be future-proof (i.e. will automatically work for any new girls, you will never need to update the mod)
- Enables the developer console
- Download the attached file
- Note: if you get sent to a new tab with a bunch of text, just right click and hit "Save as" and name it as z_set_love_lust.rpy
- Move into the game subfolder (found in the folder that you launch Lessons in Love from)
- Load a save and open the developer console with Shift + O
- Press Enter a few times until you can see the ">" symbol in the top left of the screen
- To update all girls' love and lust: type setLoveAndLust(X) and press Enter(for an example, see the image below)
- Note: X must be an integer (aka whole number)
- To update a specific girl's love or lust, for example Ami: type "ami_love += X" and/or "ami_lust += X" without the quotation marks and then press Enter.
- Note: the girl's name must be fully lower-case.
- This will increase their love/lust by X. If you want to make it equal to X then omit the plus sign
- Press Esc to close the console and now you can play!

Bonus stuff (not essential to read):
I recommend using this with the guide mod for max efficiency because other than grinding points, the main time-sink with this game is trying to trigger events.
If you want a version of the mod that lets you set affection and lust points separately (useful if you don't want to see any lust events), see here: https://f95zone.to/threads/lessons-in-love-v0-30-0-selebus.48158/post-10770605
Advice from alex2011 on how to use the mod so that you don't accidentally miss events (note: I used the mod myself with 50 affection from the start and didn't experience any issues. You can still miss events even if you follow the instructions below and you can still see all events while ignoring those instructions.):
Uninstall: delete the files z_set_love_lust.rpy and z_set_love_lust.rpyc from your game subfolder
I also made a mod that lets you scroll your mouse-wheel to simulate clicks (i.e. scrolling forward a bit makes the dialogue move forward by one mouse click), makes the game more convenient to play https://f95zone.to/threads/use-scroll-wheel-to-simulate-mouse-clicks.120507/#post-8406783
Honestly, I think it kind of comes down to this:Something about this specific bit kinda stands out to me, the bit about being complete makes someone stay on script... we've wondered for a long time what makes someone able to pierce the veil and i feel like this is a clue, we've discussed trauma and pregnancy and who has ever visited the roof but nothing has ever come up as a concrete connection, does this little detail change any of that, what does someone have to lose to be able to go off the script? What triggers someone to begin being able to perceive their past selves memories? You all know i'm too dumb to get this shit on my own so what do you guys make of this? DeSkelly? Mooney? Fdsas? Maug?You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
A longer post on Nodoka is on my to-do list, but my basic understanding of what's going on with her is that she's able to receive fragmentary thoughts and memories from one or more "other Nodokas", probably past versions of her that were factory reset. In contrast, the other characters also have these other selves, but they aren't mentally connected to them in any way.Something about this specific bit kinda stands out to me, the bit about being complete makes someone stay on script... we've wondered for a long time what makes someone able to pierce the veil and i feel like this is a clue, we've discussed trauma and pregnancy and who has ever visited the roof but nothing has ever come up as a concrete connection, does this little detail change any of that, what does someone have to lose to be able to go off the script?

Sensei - Where to start? He’s lost a lot. Sekai. His brother. His parents. His innocence. Not to mention, like Yuu, he’s special; a wildcard.
Maya - Maya Prime lost Akira, the love of her life, making her incomplete. She then made a divine wish that she could be with him forever, and like the story of Altair and Vega, was delivered to her in the worst way imaginable, leading to her curse and most likely the time loops themselves.
Ayane - She got pregnant with Himawari before Reset 3, somehow got the idea to meet with Sensei on the roof, and then showed up during said reset. Once the reset itself happened, Ayane was gone, along with the unborn Himawari. Her baby was now lost, making Ayane incomplete. Come Reset 4, Ayane shows up on the roof again, and this time, doesn’t disappear.
Makoto - Makoto started becoming aware of the time fuckery around the time of the solo beach trip with her, Sensei and Miku, but didn’t really begin perceiving things until after the death of her father. Masahiro was her reason for pushing herself in school and making her the person she was. She wanted to make him proud. And now that he’s gone, Makoto is now an incomplete person. In Reset 6, she shows up on the roof.
Considering you two, I guess Maya got resetted because she finally found happiness with Akira. She realized he remembered a lot of stuff and still loved her. But, paradoxically, that's what killed her – her own happiness. You shouldn't really be happy in this world.
- Ayane had been happy until she got knocked up, and then lost the baby, which she still remembers. She wanted to be a mother, and that's what made her happy, what kept her going, but this world wouldn't allow that. She's had to go off script to be happy ever since.
- Makoto has had to change again and again since Bluejay to be Happy. Bluejay broke her, then she was reset, but the memories of Bluejay forced her to try to change, then her father's death nearly broke her, but Ami helped her (Ami's the caretaker and cared for both Ayane and Makoto before they became aware), which allowed Makoto to instead focus on what makes her Happy. This is when the Unbluejay happens, she tricks Sensei into signing marriage papers, and then she's shown to have become aware of things. Her trying to be Happy, instead of simply being "happy here", may have been why.
- Yumi was forced to re-evaluate what makes her Happy after Nodoka forced her to face herself, Chika, and what her future might look like (Yuki). This led to her trying to be Happy, by letting Yuki back in, being nice to Noriko and Futaba, etc.
- Tsuneyo is a little different, but assuming that what happened to Molly forced her to re-evaluate what makes her Happy, then Sensei taking her on that date also changed what she thinks will make her Happy (Sensei), then this may explain why she's become aware.
thats an interesting thought, do we have any evidence to support this? I thought Yuu was supposed to be Akira's father (and Saki, his mother) so I wonder what the circumstances would've been for Yuu to have a kid with Kyoko?(and her father is probably Yuu, who also had visions)
Hmm, I don't think it would add something very substantial for RAS business because it lacks comparable examples. To explain this I want to point out what Nodoka currently could grasp first because I feel like we're trying to tackle more than one question all at once:Something about this specific bit kinda stands out to me, the bit about being complete makes someone stay on script... we've wondered for a long time what makes someone able to pierce the veil and i feel like this is a clue, we've discussed trauma and pregnancy and who has ever visited the roof but nothing has ever come up as a concrete connection, does this little detail change any of that, what does someone have to lose to be able to go off the script?

It might have been too strong to say that Yuu is "probably" her father, but there is circumstantial evidence:thats an interesting thought, do we have any evidence to support this? I thought Yuu was supposed to be Akira's father (and Saki, his mother) so I wonder what the circumstances would've been for Yuu to have a kid with Kyoko?
Maya Prime also seemed to have her memories be erased until there was only Akira:Considering you two, I guess Maya got resetted because she finally found happiness with Akira. She realized he remembered a lot of stuff and still loved her. But, paradoxically, that's what killed her – her own happiness. You shouldn't really be happy in this world.
Technically, Yumi might just be remembering what happened before the resets:A little sidetrack here is that one might even argue the definition of "past selves memories". Loose definition is any memory that doesn't make chronological sense, while stringent definition will be the memories from selves in the past cycles. Currently only Yumi is shown to be qualified under the stringent definition as someone who can apparently remember the detentions other iterations gave her. Still, remembering that hasn't landed her a place in RAS yet.
The timelines don't match though. Nodoka is Ami's age. The only possible way for Nodoka to be Akira's sister is if she time-travelled, she'd have to be Yuu's granddaughter if anything (which isn't likely because she's Kyoko's daughter).It might have been too strong to say that Yuu is "probably" her father, but there is circumstantial evidence:
- Kyoko is one of the residents of the upside down house along with Saki, two other Nothing is Beautiful characters, and an unnamed male. Because of the NiB connection, people think it's Yuu.
- In the event where Sensei trades nudes with Otoha, he suddenly gets weird thoughts apparently coming from Nodoka's father ("Can you hear this Kyoko? Your daughter is a nightmare. She has my eyes.") with the attached photograph on the screen, probably meant to be from the upside down house. It's more likely these come from someone Sensei has a connection with rather than a random unnamed character. View attachment 3900374
- There's joking references to Sensei and Nodoka being secret siblings which could be foreshadowing. See the "secret family" section of my post here.
Either the wiki or the guide mod.Or you can search around in the files ig but idk how much youll findIs there a list of triggers? I couldn't find anything with a quick look but I'm also trying to avoid spoilers
Pareidolia seems to be using her. We used to think it was HOPE, mainly because it seems HOPE was involved with Sara, and there's the theory Sana is the daughter of Nozomu himself. However, since that one event Pareidolia "saved" Sana/slipped her back to kumon-mi (or even engineered the whole situation), it seems he's intent on using her.Was anyone else a little freaked out by how Sana was acting during the sleepover? Her attentive listening and pushiness seemed suspicious. I'm sure I can't be the only one thinking it, do we think one of the gods are manipulating her? I'm not sure which god she most relates to though, wondering if any lore lovers can help out.
Hope and/or Pareidolia (more likely) has some sort of interest in/connection to Sana, and is seemingly the reason we now have horny Sana — the one that found Akira in the infirmary to fug and can't help but masturbate in public bathrooms. She's probably been/being manipulated on some level somehow. Far as I can tell, she's not being directly controlled or spoken to though, unless we get evidence otherwise. It's more been alluded to that someone is making Sana or others have certain feelings. See the speculation on girls being vessels / sacrifices etc. or having some sort of purpose like angels in training. To make this post distinct, It's likely just weird, hormones-over-introversion Sana, who's already dealt with visions. She can become aware now but doesn't really understand what's going on, either, she just overheard a batshit conversation and can't really process it.Was anyone else a little freaked out by how Sana was acting during the sleepover?

The gods are starting to gather pawns for the game that is starting.The current players are as follows.Was anyone else a little freaked out by how Sana was acting during the sleepover?

Well, at least i never got any sign for ill intent from her. For me it was more like, she finally knows what she wants and how she can get it. Sure, i would agree that she didnt got to this point by herself. But i didnt got the same evil plan vibe as i got from the smile ami had at the end.Was anyone else a little freaked out by how Sana was acting during the sleepover?

bruh, you're making it hard to remain calm hereThe gods are starting to gather pawns for the game that is starting.The current players are as follows.
1)Hope
2)Himawari and Co
3)Wires
4)Pareidolia and Sekai
For the sake of the argument im using the theory that everything thats happening is because the 3 MAIN gods of this universe(Pareidolia Wires Hope) have different goals and that creates conflict.
Pareidolia wishes for chaos and destruction.He wishes to destroy everything around Akira not because he wants to remake the world or anything like that.Pareidolia is just a very sadistic entity.
Hope wishes to reform the world.He wants to change the way things are and in order to do that he NEEDS Akira.He has developed an unhealthy obsession with him and he has even went as far as temporarely descending into our world(Which i will refer to it as TERMINAL 23) through Yasu.
Wires is the closest thing Akira has to an ally in this game.Wires has helped him stay sane from the very beginning,he has tried to stop Akira from making irreversible mistakes but to no avail.He wants to maintain order but he is either weakened or is just in general not on par with the other 2.
One potential theory that ive been letting stew goes as follows.
We have 4 seasons in kumon-mi.Winter Summer Spring and Autumn.
Now we know that Spring is Pareidolias season but we cant exactly be sure about all the other seasons.But for the sake of it lets suppose it goes as follows.
Spring~Pareidolia
Summer~Hope
Automn~Wires
Winter~Nao(Im supposing Nao is the god that Maya prayed to to reset the world)
My theory goes as follows.Each god represents one season in kumon-mi so the corresponding god is stronger in their season.They are able to interfere with the world around them and do a lot more weird god stuff.Now i believe that Pareidolias "Endless Spring" is him artifically keeping this up as his first move towards his goal.
If we follow that theory then Pareidolia already has 2 wonderful pawns.Sekai and now potentially Sana(As Moonflare said i also believe that Adult Sana appearing in Senseis dream was Pareidolias attempt to influence him).
Hope has Yasu and his angels.
Wires has Tsuneyo and her father.
Nao is still a mystery.
But yea TLDR:I believe that we are in the beginning of a game of chess between gods to decide the future of this world.We arent an active player,we are the most valuable piece.
