I like the way you think! Unfortunately I haven't this far seen any way to pay rent for the old lady in the first place.

Using first someone's pure generosity to then collect rent from subtenants sounds to me exactly like something the House Carozza would do, but perhaps I am just unaware of some finer details of the rental systems of Ikaanos.

Please tell me exactly how you rent houses from old ladies if you will, so I could perhaps do the same in my own game.

This is probably a translation issue; this is just my opinion, and I can't do it myself.

Absolutely no problem at all. I haven't taken Michelle (and her dear friend Adrienne) into my game for ages. Thus I thought there could have been changes in the game that would fx. keep the elderly lady's house available after Michelle had taken her leave. (Such solutions have been asked for already times ago, so they sounded possible and also interesting enough for me to inquire about.)

When you set the workshop to processing, do you HAVE to have merchandise available there, even if you want it to process scrap metal into steel instead? This is what the wiki says

• Merchandise Processing: The player can drop collected Merchandise at Workshop and have it processed into materials. These materials will be automatically transferred to his Resource Inventory as long as:
  • There are at least 100 available Merchandise.
  • The player has one or more workers assigned to this location.

It mentions nothing about how steel and c-boards processing. I have tons of scrap metal I need steel to make rifles, not more scrap, so I wasn't filling the merchandise pool. Does it automatically prioritize scrap and boards when you set it to process them, or do you have to micromanage how much merchandise you load every day so it has enough to allow processing, but still allows for maximum refinement?

If you have upgraded your workshop enough that the process scrap metal and c-boards options appear,

That only processes merchandise straight into steel/gold.

If you have no merchandise, nothing happens AND your existing scrap/c-boards will never ever no matter what be converted into steel/gold, unless you do it manually.

How do I turn off message about Gymnasium competition?

I have not played for a long time so started a new game. I always start with a year of building up cash and stats, doing the courses, reading the manuals. I happened to go by Gymnasium once and now I have this really loud competition count down and comes every day.

Looked around in settings and found no way to turn this message off. Maybe by turning off "home news" or some such but I dont want to miss more relevant messages, just get rid of this one.

And thanx for amazing game, Grim is the best.

If you don't think the gymnasium is relevant, you won't miss anything that is more relevant by turning it off.

You can see all the same info and more by clicking the newspaper between the mail and fast travel icons.

But how do I turn it off, was my question?
Edit:
Aha! Turning off "home news" actually worked, I had not tried it because i did not want to lose messages about street urchins breaking into my yard etcetera.
Ill try playing with it turned off some then. But I really do want news about what is happening in my home.

 

[Zarkhy]

i did not want to lose messages about street urchins breaking into my yard etcetera.

The home news has nothing to do with those events.

Thank you.

i have a question, i’ve reached the end of the Secret Garden quest. as you can see in the screenshot, i can either stay silent or complete the quest by going to the Town Hall. i want to stay silent, do you think that's better? also, do I need to do anything specific to stay silent? because a month has passed and i still haven’t received any elixirs.

The 2 default slots in the yard, lush garden and scrap head, do they have any real importance or is it fine to just demolish them to build other buildings?

You don't need to do anything to stay silent.

The elixirs in question are called "Elixir of Lesano" and AFAIK they should just get added to your inventory periodically, no announcement, no nothing.

Lush Grove is basically useless, and you can find stuff at the Scrap Heap, search it until it's empty before demolishing (it will literally say "empty" and you can't search anymore when it's empty). There's a minor quest item called the Red River Circlet in there.

I hope the animation mod gets uploaded soon. I had to start over because I kept killing the story npcs instead of enslaving them and have no idea how to use the console to respawn.

I always snitch on them because I run a 0 tolerance policy for demonic feminists . I can corrupt people just fine the old-fashioned way, don't need any of those nasty potions.

 

[Leobbb]

I wish the bookstore quest line had better closure though, something that could be worth actually turning the evidence in and removing the secret garden from the quest list. For example it's not even unlikely for the owner to end up in Crystal Heights after her arrest right? So we could "fix" her feminism. Or maybe through some buy out from the Hamilton jail or something like that. Right now the only benefit is 1 Ikaanos standing and 5k influence. Of course 5k influence is substantial especially early game, but it is still something that you can easily accumulate over time.

thanks a lot. btw is the whipping cane the only weapon in the game that lets you knock out an enemy without killing them?

No, each weapon states what their incapacitation chance modifier is. Base is 11% and you can add +15% with the Manhunter trait.

Whipping Cane is the only one that guarantees incapacitation, aside from MC using unarmed with the manhunter trait.

Is it possible to lock time of day? as in prevent the time to change?

 

[reidanota]

Trying to set up a team of good scavengers from "random" captures is proving difficult (while also trying to keep other functions manned). Is it possible to guarantee a significant flow of merchandise every day, so you can use manufacturing more often? I have 8 scavangers all with the scavenger trait, survival skills vary and some other traits like nerd or techie. Apart from end-of-day scavenging, I'm getting what I can by scavenging with my main combat squad (because I'm also trying to be ambushed to hunt down and sell more slaves while also possibly getting a bit more merchandise). Should I, instead, equip and train a secondary squad of my 4 scavengers with best fighting skills, and only scavenge with them? With what I'm gathering, certainly less than 100 merchandise per day and a lot of scrap metal and other crap I'm already sitting on too much of. Can't produce more than a batch of 50 rifles, say, every 2 to 3 weeks. Or keep the sweat shop running and forget about it (runs out of merchandise faster than I can refill it). Not necessarily anything wrong, it's just that manufacturing doesn't seem to be the fast cash farming method people say it is. Maybe it was nerfed? Should I be looking into gunpowder and making ammo instead of rifles? I did the math for weapons, and standard rifles (non-automatic) seem to have the best return per materials and production units combined, but didn't include ammo in my spreadsheet.

Another question, if I eliminate a faction (say, the red river pirates) to stop their impact on my investments, do they have a chance of returning if control is very low, or are they gone for good? Since high level enemies seem to be the quickest cash cow available, I'm reluctant to do away with them completely
