Crossbow bolts are 3 times as effective. I typically get something like a total of 4-8 points artisan or blacksmithing, if I spend all day and night crafting bolts.

Yes, cigar room is horrible. 2x2 hours = 0.1 science = 40 hours / 10 days to get +1 science. The only worse option I can think of is to grind the assembly plant.
I'll have to try crossbow bolts. Hadn't thought of grinding skill via ammo crafting. The assembly plant seems entirely worthless now. It used to have some uncapped skill gains there like strength so you could get some use out of it after reaching the training caps but I think the caps for everything that can be trained at the assembly plant are low enough that you can get the same stat to the same level or greater with less time and effort doing something else now.

The chemical plant job is even worse. You're actually more likely to LOSE stats than gain them there IMO while also wasting a ton of time and making hardly any money. Those jobs really need a revamp.

Automation mod has been updated again here
(And is now pretty much feature complete)
Lines 1874 and 1875 of script.js are mixing up the MC's strength and dexterity values when doing the basic training's 'Push It' and 'Hire Trainer' checks.

I've also noticed that 'Frigid' erroneously appears on mouseover for NPCs who have the trait reduced to 49, such that it is no longer active.

Unfortunately, no. There's only one MC look in the sex renders. I heard Grim will be experimenting with different protagonist renders (including a female MC) but its not going to be in this game anytime soon, if ever. Maybe in MoR 2.

Unless I misunderstand, that seems like way too much work to be worth it. An alternate male MC would double the current number of sex renders. Add a female MC as well and that would triple it. A female MC at least would provide a meaningfully different playing experience. An alternate male would really provide nothing other than some cosmetic changes.

Alternate portraits for people choosing different ages, etc is fine. That's minimal work but it doesn't affect the sex renders.

Thanks!

Are you sure? I'm pretty sure that the day my Stormchild appeared, I got a notification of a "Stormwave" (whatever that is) - not a storm, or a thunderstorm, or a hurricane; and I haven't had one since. (Though I can't find that in the code now; maybe it's changed.)
I'm positive. I literally just bought her after taking that screenshot. She's guaranteed to show up at either of the 2 slave auction houses you might decide to go to when that storm is going on. She might be miss able if you lose the auction. Haven't tested that.

^Also, only her Stormchild trait is guaranteed. Everything else is random. (in case you did not know already)

Got two questions:

1. Got a choice between Tavern and Workshop now. Which one should I get if I am looking for money-making building?

2. Following to above: how to best optimize each of them?

For now I've been living from investments, poker games and bounties. About time I start getting serious scratch.

I don't think increasing strength through combat has ever worked. I have never gained a point from that. You can gain a point or two randomly by smashing the grate in the holiday dresses quest and the quest for the Dunham girl but I'm not sure if it's uncapped. I don't think I've ever gained a point from it when I was already at or above 130 but I have never F5'd it extensively to see if it was possible. It's not a repeatable thing anyway so you can't gain much that way.

You can get to 151 melee if you wait til you get to 150 before clearing the scrap pile in your yard. I don't think there's any way to gain further than that. Damage doesn't scale with melee skill anyway as far as I know, just strength. Ranged damage DOES scale with ranged skill though so you should see some damage increase up until you hit 150 there. You can train strength and stamina to 130 at home if you have a maxed out dojo. Without a dojo I believe 120 is the cap. I think the training cap for melee and ranged might be 120. You can also gain an extra uncapped point of strength and stamina from the scrap pile if you wait til after you're at the training cap before clearing it.
No u can definitely increase strdngth upto 70 via only melee crits. I trained that space pilot girl from 50 to 70 and melee 40 to 110 through only crits.

Must be a crazy low chance for strength then (much lower than melee) unless I consistently have very strange luck on crits. I have trained Sky from 50 melee to 150 with melee crits alone but during the time required for that she has never gained even 1 point of strength. Same for MC. I can easily train melee from 10 to 150 with melee crits alone but during that time I have never gained even 1 point of strength. Maybe it only works with certain weapons? The only melee weapons I ever use are whips, katanas, and greatswords.

With that being said I always train everyone I intend to fight with up to 80+ strength in the dojo within the first 3 months. So if it takes longer than 3 months to gain a point then the chance is low enough not to be relevant to me.

so i just wanted to send some of my children off and found out that you can only have one child per job.
so if i have two children with 75+ science, the first child gets to be a scientist and the second doesnt do anything?
seriously? he isnt even doing any of the other available jobs?
i hope this is a bug
