Take your time, we love u.
I'm knee-deep in a two episode (late public leak) update for Erotica.
This is getting ridiculous. I'll never get my damn tax reporting done at this rate.
So, this little ditty is just going to have to wait a bit. It ain't happening tonight.

Porting this over sucks. With the RenPy version change I'm having to manually copy/paste almost all the original (still working) code over to the "new" version. This is painstaking since there's so many files to sort through... but I'll get there slowly but surely. This might take more than one pot of coffee tbh. I'll post some teasers once I'm done porting, fire up the VN, and it doesn't explode. I'm very concerned all the hours I spent on the last versions "freeroam" code might be broken. I cringe at the thought of having to redo them now... hopefully not.

Well.. it didn't explode, it fired up fine after hours of manually porting over the mod Core:
Now the real work begins...

My beef with this one is that there's not really much of anything new. It's (basically) just a coding and variable renaming rewrite. I'm not convinced yet that it was necessary at all. It feels like it was simply an exercise by the new dev team. I'm not done going through everything so maybe I'm wrong here... but so far it's all redundant imo. Work for the sake of work.

So many new bugs... I'm reporting them as I find them in the VN's thread but damn... this sucks.

So, I'm fixing all the new bugs but I also had to recode all the "free roams" and AutoSaves code of the Core due to the wonky way the VN is handling the new Ep2 Map destination choice... which used to be forced on the Player but now the Player can select which to do first. So, this new dev team has attempted to migrate and twist scenes in both Ep2 and Ep3 to make this new "feature" work correctly. It's a bit of a mess tbh but doable (I'm now basically done with fixing it all).
The exception I haven't fixed is the Journal entry bug which I noted here in the VN's thread. I can fix it all nice and tidy but will only do so if I have time to spare once I'm done updating the mod instead of fixing the actual VN gameplay (the Journal entries are not my personal priority tbh).

The fact that you take a few minutes between working on your mods to share updates about why it takes so long makes us feel important and like we are helping even if it is only by saying "We appreciate your efforts".

Fuck it... I sorted the Journal bugs too. Gave the main dev my fixes via the exact code I used so is simple copy/paste replacement. Made post here in VN's thread. Main dev is a good dude... but the coder he hired... dunno, he's made many fundamental mistakes. I hope he learns from the experience.

What a day. Give me a few to build a retail package, integrity test it, then upload if it all passes.

FYI, while I was doing my normal closeout code cleanup I went ahead and added a bit of polish to the Save screen's named save input location. It now replaces the screen's Page navigation row (at the bottom of the save/load slots). Here's a visual of the normal screen and the screen during input:
This was completely unnecessary but I thought it looked pretty cool, so I did it anyway.
Now, time to get this built and in your hands...

Always know there are a ton of us patiently waiting and appreciating the hell out of what you do. Thanks man.

It's way too late now. I'm just going to send them extra, get the extensions, and get a refunded difference later. Tonight I'm gonna sip whiskey and level up some heroes in Brotato. That's the R&R I need now.Thanks again, brother!

If y'all get bored later: if you haven't tried SanchoMod for "Jury" then go get you some (can be found here). It's one of my best works on a complicated VN... but I'm not in the VN's OP so many folks don't even know about it. Just an idea for ya to try.
Regards.
