I checked out your save (loaded into it) and a bit of the game code about the secretive trait and the game seems to be a bit buggy. Cassius and at least 1 other NPC of yours seem to have the secretive trait at 200. But somehow it doesn't show up on the traits of the NPC when viewing it via the Stats & Traits tab. But you can initiate an interrogation and see there, that their secrecy shows as 200/100.
Digging in the code led me to this conclusion:
while the variable
$quest_interro
is 7 (when your last interrogation led you to the girl) the secretive trait of NPCs is not set from 200 (it initialises at 200 when an NPC rolls the trait) to 100 when interacting with them and no new NPC spawns with the secretive trait. Also somehow it makes the secretive trait not show up in the NPCs traits.
But it does not remove the secretive Trait from NPCs that already have it. So if you now were to interrogate an NPC that still has the secretive trait you do increase the $quest_interro variable by 1, it shows no text on what secret you revealed, as i guess this was not meant to be a reacheble scenario. So now all your other NPCs with the secretive trait do show it again and new NPCs can spawn with it again.

Below

<<if _npc.traitsecret is 200 and $quest_interro isnot 7>>
<<set _genevent to 2>> /* generic but different variable for each event */

<<set _npc.traitsecret to 100>>
<</if>>

in the code i would input

<<if _npc.traitsecret gte 1 and $quest_interro gte 7>>
<<set _npc.traitsecret to 0>>
<</if>>

and it should remove the secretive trait from your NPCs that currently still have it when interacting with them.
I just did so and loaded your save and interactet with Cassius, Truuls, and Gerry, Pavel and Andar (three Random NPCs on page 2 in your Household) and another Venomous NPC in your Household, so now they should no longer be secretive. If i didn't miss any you should be fine and can use the attached save without any random slaves spawning with the secretive trait, but those that are scripted to spawn with it will still do so (Aaron Kreuger is one i know to always spawn secretive), so you would still have to cheat it away (either via concole command or my suggested code edit) or interrogate them to get rid of their secretive trait.
While I was reading your post I was thinking "for sure it would make all the sense and would be crystal clear, for him, but for me it´s reading something in Skimo written in Chinese characters" and was scared that "and now he will tell me to do something I have no clue about how to do it".

And then I see the save edited and the heavens open!.

Your work and kindness it´s greatly appreciated!!

Any hint about what are the effects of divorce? wiki says nothing. Currently I´m an Atheist with two wifes, but I´m thinking about a conversion to Christianity.

Either I can soak the 100 influence loss. It´s something not light, but bearable.

That influence loss sounds bearable if it is working as I understand it at first glance.

So I was doing further dives into the code and i think I have been able to test the game enough to say there isn't an issue with making your son into a second daughter in the code or Changing the Wixx boy into a girl. Again doing so requires you to tweak dialogue and change pictures but it appears you can eliminate


<<if _npc.girlid is 19 or _npc.girlid is 37>><<set _npc.sex to 1>><</if>>

From the code (the above line of code is the modified version of the code I provided to make all but your son and the wixx boy female.

This means the only men in the game are random NPCs with a girlid of 300+

All your children will be female all the mercs will be female. i need to test with a few more births to make sure everything is working as i hope it is.

The biggest issue with this approach is the fact it is version sensitive and it requires you to make the changes with each version you play. So it isn't sustainable (IMO) if you play each new update as it is released with these tweaks but I think it can work if you do the changes every 2nd or third release.

A secondary issue is the lack of replacement pictures for the male turned female mercs. This can be somewhat solved using sandman mod pictures and original pictures. if you use sandman mod then using the original pictures for the male mercs works or if you prefer the original picture set using the sandman mod pictures instead for the mercs. but really this is a work around vs a decent solution as true dedicated pictures would be better especially true for story pictures that some mercs have. This however isn't something I would do or have the skill to do someone else would have to desire to make these extra pictures.

As I get more data on having your children all be female i will keep you informed. Right now it seems to work but one data point isn't enough for me to say yes this works.
Setting up a script to check for content blocks and automatically replace them is how I am making my big mods. Then I use a tool like tkdiff to see if the script missed something or if new things I need to change have been added.

yeah that is way above my pay grade. i can tweak a piece of code here or there by hunting & pecking for it, but it is just tweaking it. I wont even say I am a modder. I can tweak code and i can test code by playing the game but I find that anything else is outside my skill set.

I was thinking of doing a simple dialogue switch and code change for the next major update's html file, and upload it here and let people deal with the pictures and combat sprites themselves. i want to test more before I do this because this game is so vast i don't want to accidently screw things up with my changes.

I made some tweaks to rebecca higgs and I can't get her " " ability to activate anymore. I did her quest. Anyway her title doen't activate for her to work on this. Why? no idea but obviously something in my tweaks broke the activation code. My point is I want to make sure this isn't happening with the male mercs turned female mercs before I release this as an uploaded Html file.

Protip: If you take the disadvantage Body Odor Never Never Never make the second upgrade in the bathroom. The huge increase in time you need to take a bath over taking just a fast shower it´s a killing thing

If you bath alone it's 48 min but with someone without picking any options it's down to 30 min. That's not too bad compared to the shower's 18.

First of all I am a huge fan of this game and the community here . Thats why I post a save with a bit money for those of you who just want to have just fun . I am not into BDSM thats why those stuffs you guys still need to train if you are into it . Otherwise just enjoy . Hope I can help some of you and to the owner of the game keep going the great work

You sell him for a flat $7,500. You do this by going to NPC Menu ---> Actions ---> Project Erebos. If Project Erebos is missing, it means you have not talked to the Hunt Research building in Emerald City. You need to be at 6000 influence before they find you trustworthy.

You can also similarly sell anyone else who looks the same, not just this one guy.

I cannot for the life of me figure out how to add a guard to each of the mines? Everytime I try to transfer a guard, it turns them into a worker at the mine. Plz halp! Thanks.
