Why doesn't the Homing Stone let me teleport out of Kala's room? They even told me to use it.

You may not have done what is needed for you to do yet, don't you need to go somewhere or something or do you need to wait.
Its been a couple of hours since I played but I don't remember what you need to do at that stage.

 

[Hercule_Poirot]

I've already waited. We've already talked about the plan to sex Odette into nirvana and they even talked about using the homing stone to get back while the redhead distracts oddete outside of her room. Now I'm just walking up to every square and trying to use the homing stone but it always says "I can't teleport right now"

Leave the room and go next door and enter Oddete room.
You did not read what was up so you missed that part.

Or was it the 2nd convo with her and you just need to wait and walk around the room some more.

Without knowing exactly where you are at on the quest can not tell you what you need to do.

 

[Hercule_Poirot]

I'm trapped in Kala's room after she comes to talk with Kala about suspicious stuff happening around the mansion.
I can't go to the corridor because apparently I'm not supposed to, and I'm told to use the Homing Stone to get out of the room.
My maids have already become part of my party again, so right now I'm the only visible character in Kala's room. This is right after talking about the plan to seduce Odette. The Homing Stone doesn't allow me to teleport out of that room.

Upload your save and I will take a look.

Fair warning, I tend to cheat my way into one punching anyone xD, but that shouldn't affect the story.

Your save is at the right place and every thing seems normal but I to can not use the stone to teleport or leave the door.
Maybe the dev can take a look and see what is wrong, this could be a bug that sometimes happen and needs to be fixed.

Hope you have a save that you can move back to.

 

[Hercule_Poirot]

I have one right before the conversation that leaves me stranded there. I have others at different parts of that mission, maybe one of them might be of use to course correct...

That save is broken to, did you maybe change a variable or something?

Everything happen as it should but unable to teleport.

 

[Hercule_Poirot]

The only variables I messed with were stats, money and potions(that was before I got bored of buying potions mwahaha!)

I only change money and xp, so maybe changing stats did it for you.

 

[Hercule_Poirot]

I guess, but that was nearly at the beginning of the game. I'd have gotten stuck inside of any room waaaay before that.

Like I said I have no idea why it will not work but with changing stats that should be 0 to 9999 you may have broken your save.

All mine are 0 and work as they should.

 

[Hercule_Poirot]

I'll see if changing them back might do the trick.

PS: dang, it didn't fix it xD.

 

[almix13]

Yes it would be great is someone would tell, this has me blocked also.

I figured it out, hit the esc button to back out of the first convo options and then choose the one you should have figured out from playing the game.

Red = Respect and Blue = Affection.

Nice, thanks. Sadly, it only works with the red flame. When I press escape on the blue flame, no further dialogue option appears and im just back in the maze. Any ideas?

Try to sex her first then try the esc option.

 

[hreserves]

Then I must have missed the only way in because I have not seen what you are talking about, I went back and forth all across the deep wilds and found 2 ledges, 1 with a cave, 1 of MC's holds and something that looks like a tower but with no way in.
With the walkthrough saying its in the west was wrong but I think I saw you posted that the walkthrough has been updated about this.

Well I started over and will look again once I get the level to make it through.

ADD: Finally found my way that was not correct in the walkthrough, you must jump down the western ledge and go down and slightly left but you must go way east then come back to that area where there is a bunch of trees.

Now for the love of porn games stop with the puzzles that make no since at all.
The 4 balls turning to red is great but the next puzzle has no correct answer that I can figure out.
Even reading the story 4 times then using the footnotes still can not figure out the combo. Sometimes I get to 5 and MC says nuts then 7 and he again says nuts and even 1 he says nuts.

The first clue says west and left hand which I take as this. But no MC says nuts several times but other times I can get to the 4 or 5 one and then he says nuts and then one says nuts then 3 says nuts.

Figured it out, please if you use something to start out the clues then keep using it for gods sake.
When you use [...] then keep using it other wise puzzle will confound some players and can make them quit playing.

Sorry for the frustration. If you have any suggestions about how to make the puzzles less obtuse, my ears are open. I'm a solo dev and I don't have any playtesters (but am accepting volunteers, if anyone reading this is interested), so some things can only go as far as "it makes sense to me."
Your read on the clue is correct, the puzzle just has a lot of steps that need to be followed exactly, and it resets completely if you miss anything.
The "[...]" notation is quotation syntax for omitted words. I originally wasn't going to use it at all, but then the "short" notated version of the clues was almost as long as the original story, and re-checking 8 text boxes for one line of text was a huge pain in playtesting. Using the notation and making it only 2 text boxes felt like the lesser evil. That's why the semi-colons are there. If you know of a better way to notate it without causing the same level of confusion, I am, as always, open to suggestions.

It looks like your the Dev of this game, I do like the game very much so far.
If so PM a Mod and ask for your Dev tags.

Yup, it me. I probably should.
I'm glad you like the game!

Any help on the mind maze? I know that you need to satisfy them dude i meant real help what to do

Nice, thanks. Sadly, it only works with the red flame. When I press escape on the blue flame, no further dialogue option appears and im just back in the maze. Any ideas?

Reminding you that there are hidden choices behind the cancel button is the closest to giving away the answer as I'm going to get.
If that doesn't help you, a1fox3 is giving away all my secrets, so check their posts for the specifics.

Sorry for the trouble.
I hate defaulting to it as a reason, but I playtested that section of the game to hell and back to make sure the exact problem you're experiencing wouldn't happen. I double checked the scripting just to do my due diligence, and the only thing I can think of is that moving things around somehow affected a switch you didn't mean to flip or scripting that was supposed to unlock that lock somehow got skipped. The best I can recommend is to not cheat. =P
It's a really easy thing to manually fix though. Save is attached, I left you exactly where you left off, the Homing Stone works now.

 

[Hercule_Poirot]

Mwahaha! Hulk Smashing the Homing Stone would most certainly do the trick.

 

[Redranger17]

maybe it's just me, but is there a way to get this game to go full screen? cannot seem to find the button for it
