Well plasma guns used to be the most profitable thing to make with workshops. I haven't done the math recently so maybe they're not anymore. They do require a lot of components, with the durasteel being particularly expensive. Prosperity and/or supply might also affect it. I end up making a ton of rifles and swords to donate anyway since the vikings and house carossa want a massive number of those.

And... tendstims. I can't be the only one who had their workshop make 500 Injectors and now wants to fill them?
No, but they are the main ingredient in doctors kits, so I didn't bother mentioning them
Intelligence is really the only stat/skill that is hard to raise. If you're going to boost something at the start, that would be the one to boost. 90 is required for the Master Tactician trait but you get intelligence from some of the books and classes so you don't necessarily need to start with it that high. I think the minimum I would want to start with if I intended to get Master Tactician in a reasonable time would be about 70. I think you can get at least 20 points from books and classes.
For a normal start I would grab all the traits I want first and if there are points left over I would use those to boost intelligence. For a Rise start I just get the traits and all of my stats including intelligence start off terrible.

I don't know if this is your problem, but remember for the latter you have to go to the old Clubhouse and break in to trigger the letter arriving. Only then will Hamilton Jail show up on the map.
Every weapon has a chance to capture, including guns even without the manhunter trait. The real reason to pick it in my opinion (and why I give it a high priority), is that it increases your chance to capture with something other than a whip. This means during tough battles I am more likely to get a capture on that injured hulk in a tier 6 or tier 7 bounty without spending a whole round whiffing away at it with whips. If I happen to not get lucky and get a capture then I'll save an alternate target to use the whip on.
If you're determined to capture a very specific target then just go after that one first and use a whip on it. Capture guaranteed. It helps if at least 1, and preferably all of your people start in close position and you want at least 1 person other than MC using a whip if you want to capture a specific target in the first round. I like to give a whip to whoever is my last person to act and greatswords to everyone else. That way I can have that last person either use a plasma/super coil for damage or a whip to capture. Everyone else gets a greatsword. MC can obviously switch to whatever is best at the time. Another good option if everyone has an ammo pack is to just give everyone a plasma and a whip. Then every round you can either go for damage or guarantee a capture.
Usually in the toughest fights my first target is someone I'd be fine with capturing so I just go all out damage on him. If I kill him that's fine. If I capture him that's also fine. My second target is usually the uncapturable Boss so I'm still going all out damage. My 3rd target I will usually guarantee a capture if I don't have one already. So I never accidently capture someone I didn't want to.

I did some math a few weeks ago. Depending on supply and market location: knives, rifles, shotguns, and plasma rifles shuffle in and out of being most profitable investment. When knife supply is at lowest level, they win out overall.
Guys how do you start the new quest to obtain the new paragon? I can travel to the sphere and I have aria and done her quest, i have over 50k influence. Yet the pilot never interacts with me when I land on the sphere.
The reason that knives becomes better is because you have reached lowest possible steel price at Dakota's sisters store.
And while that may seem like a good thing... It actually is a very bad thing for the long term sustainability of the production.
Why? Because a single efficient workshop, with 9000 production points, will consume 1800 steel per day and only 140 steel per day will replenish on a dying world (and I'm guessing 700 on non-dying world).
So, when producing 900 knives per day you will reduce the available steel market supply by 1100-1660 units per day.
If instead producing 100 rifles, you will only consume 600 steel per day, which will then never run out on normal difficulty and last several years longer on a dying world.
It is of course possible to avoid this by producing plasma rifles, but then the problem shifts towards lack of dura steel instead.
Which probably means that the best compromize is auto rifles.
If you wanted to visualize this dimension, then you could simply add a production points per day value, somewhere in the sheet, and then add columns for steel and durasteel consumption per day, based on that value.

But for how long?
After reading up a little, it looks like they tried to increase income by retroactively adding cost per installation and presumably adding spywhere to monitor it. When that failed, they fired 25% of their staff.
I would expect that they will try something same "but different" as soon as they realize that revenue is still not meeting expectation.
Are there any keyboard shortcuts for the different buttons, like when you are in the house. If not, is there a way to mod or hack in keyboard shortcuts into a html game?
Was curious about this so I actually just tested it. Disciplined has no effect on the stat caps, it just makes it easier to hit the existing caps. Without the dojo the cap is 120. With the dojo the cap is 130. You can hit 130 with or without Disciplined, but with disciplined you can do it fairly easily. Once you get to 130 there's a massive penalty of more than 100 that makes every attempt an automatic failure even with disciplined.
You can build more than 1 dojo for some reason but they don't do anything past the first one other than cost you money.
Melee and ranged can both go to 150 via combat but you can only train them to 130 in the dojo.
I didn't test the caps for followers. In previous versions the follower's frame determined their caps so for instance Ayden had higher caps than Bud. Not sure if that's still true.
It's possible to start with almost 200 strength using an enhanced start if you cheese it to the max when creating your character but I'm not sure it's really worth spending so many points when you can get to 130 for free via training.

I think they have the same caps but more muscular bodies have a better time raising their strength but are penalized in rolls when raising their dexterity past around 90 dex. More lithe bodies are penalized in their strength training rolls starting at around 90 strength. So while they have the same caps, one guy is going to struggle very very hard to get there while another gets there easier.

Well, a short look at the code for 8.32 (and 8.31) suggest, that npcs with certain body types do not have any strength cap (via training in the dojo) and that other npcs with other certain body types do not have any dex cap (via training in the dojo). Ie. petite and very petite bodied npcs can get dex of 999+ (yes the chance is slim to raise above 120, but it is above zero) and herculean bodied npcs can get herculean strength of ie. 999+ str (yes the chance is slim to raise above 120, but it is above zero) and in both cases the chance for a raise is the same for raising from 120 to 121 and from 998 to 999 (or with other words, if an npc can raise his/her dex/str from 120 to 121 via dojo training, then he/she can raise his/her dex/str from 998 to 999, meaning their is no cap for the npc and that particular dex/str training).
Now the question for you is, do you prefer npcs (as followers) which cannot be hit via melee attacks (from creatures like Goran-Ika) or do you prefer npcs which deal more damage via melee attacks? (Or does that depend on the combat, ie. if you can make sure, that only a certain npc is targeted via melee attacks in advanced fight, then you might want a mixed line-up (where the ultra dextrous female is always targeted but always evades the attack), while your herculean npcs make short work of the enemy).
