Relatedly, I know how to modify my own stats with console commands ( SugarCube.State.active.variables.master-) but how do you target slaves/mercs with that? Their names don't seem to be working and if i'm going to have to start a new save when the capture update comes out, i'm going to want to cheat a bunch.
When applying the console to your slaves just use the av for the active slot (switch for the one on right side0. For the remaining ones avAp, avAp2, avAp3...avAp6 will be the remaining 6 spots so you don't have to move them to the active spots (the two visible ones). Hope that helps.

Also i want to mention that u can sell gold bar (150 each)at dedicated shop (tailor guy) and at market for 190each. Shouldn't this tailor pay more than market price? He's also asking me to sell gold bars for better prices but paying less. I already completed his quest.
I thought this was kind of a joke. While Nickolai is a pretty decent guy, he is a cheap bastard.

I do sell him some gold sometimes though, to make piercings for my slavegirls. There seems to me to be something more appropriate about melting down gold I plundered or 'mined' to decorate my girls.

Just out of curiosity, is she tied up, on her knees begging for it...or both? The really entertaining aspect of this recent extended conversation is that while EK may be framing his input in a way that some of you find to be disrespectful or upsetting the developer is the exact opposite. Instead of saying "Fuck you if you don't like my game" or "Thanks for playing, bye" he's inviting EK to come on Discord and participate more. Empty praise and rabid attacks on anyone who has a different opinion of the game aren't going to help Grimdark improve it. I'm not suggesting everyone rush to pile on and chime in with anything they dislike but for someone who took the time to do an in depth evaluation of the game's current state you maybe should take that at face value and see if there's something you can contribute to the discussion. There's a difference between complaining and critiquing even when the tone seems similar.

Cool, good to hear.

So taking you at face value, here are some of my thoughts about cleaning up the overabundance of slave traits.

Some of them are on the 0-100 scale, while others use a split gradient where the neutral value is 50. I think there are a few that could be simplified and combined, so that you had way fewer stats to worry about.
I've been thinking about this for a couple of days and something just occurred to me that might make some of your analysis moot: this sort of eliminating and combining stats is the sort of thing that tends to break saves when implemented and GD has stated he wants to avoid that.

That being said I do see some good ideas for tweaking a little, I would like to see some sort of 'exhibitionist' trait or stat and some way of doing something about the 'Shy' trait. It just so happens that lately pretty much all of my Starlets are also getting the 'Shy' trait which makes Starlet useless in the current game. I also think there's something to be said for having core binary traits that cannot be easily changed, which is what 'Shy' currently amounts to, I just don't like it being that one in particular as I think shyness is indeed something that can be more easily overcome.

I do like how you can currently 'stack' some traits, thus I'd rather he kept both Brawler and Warrioress, even when it works against you sometimes with Feminist and Advocate. They are all subtly different and offer a more nuanced and diverse take on a slavegirls personality and effectiveness.

Some skills are in place for future expansion I believe. While there's currently only limited use for Dancing, Performance and Acrobatics (Golden Dragon and selling to Dockside Tavern) I think GD has more planned that will utilize those stats.

I like the differentiation between Gardening and Domestic, the former can be 'trained' by having her do it at the house and/or at the Academy, and has a notable impact outside the perks and Influence a high Domestic skill provides.

Science skill is also used in hacking the vault doors and when using the machines to break down merchandise. If he progresses as I suspect he will it may well come into more use when slaves can help you with your burgeoning pile of plundered merchandise.

Survival skill is used for determining your effectiveness Hunting and Fishing. I've not done that in a while but I recall having Juno around was beneficial to that and she (and others) would gain Survival score when accompanying the MC.

Dexterity when high enough allows you to start in the advanced position and also helps determine your ability to dodge melee blows. Strength significantly improves damage done. Base attributes do affect combat skills currently, but perhaps could do more like increase your chances of improving the skill when training.

I appreciate all the time and work your put into your analysis!

How does hacking/computer level work?
I've got the hacking device and managed to hack one door previously, but now i'm at The Old Gate, and it requires a computer level of 3, but I only have 2.

I have the handheld hacking computer thing, i've upgraded my tech-room, my science level is 100+
... but none of that seems to directly translate into 'hacking skill'

What is hacking skill, and how do you get it?

Edit: NVM. I didn't realize that I was supposed to click on the thing. lol.

So quick question about the medical upgrades in the upper city, I get the aborting aspect but is the other one a way too speed up aging?

Yo guys, is there any way to raise Aimee's Affection?
I already have Dakota as a slave (naturally i were on her birthday and everything)
But the Affection and the Corruption for Aimee stayed on 44/100 and 0/100 ever since.

Aimee hasn't received any updates since Dakota's birthday party.

Hell... I was so ready for some Aimee/Aloy action...
Nonetheless thank you, my dude!
I would not be terribly surprised if that was on the agenda. I think I recall reading Aimee was a tier request and generally those girls end up getting stuffed senseless at some point...

Random slaves have not been implemented publicly yet, they'll be in version 0.8.2. The random generation system is largely complete, but is currently being tested and tweaked, and still needs some extra fleshing out with backgrounds and such. Not sure why that info was added to the wiki prematurely, without a disclaimer stating it's not publicly accessible content yet.
Sorry to quote an old message but THIS IS THE ANSWER THAT I BADLY NEED OF WHY I CAN'T FRIGGIN FIND RANDOM SLAVES EVEN THOUGH WIKI SAYS YOU CAN FIND IT THERE, THANK YOU!!

And yeah, the wiki should EXPLICITLY MENTION THAT IT ONLY WORKS ON 0.8.2! i wasted like a lot of time and finally found the answer i badly need here, gonna try to edit the wiki for a bit as to not confuse other people like i did...

Edit : Nevermind since the wiki is private and guest can't even edit to contribute to it...

Made the edit to the slave market page, if there's any others I should edit please let me know. The wiki is private, yes, but feel free to hop into our discord and request edit access, Grim rarely turns down help. We have multiple editors, but the game changes so much, so quickly that the wiki tends to lag behind.
