Are there any unique NPCs among those you can buy (aside from Aria and Stacey which are quest-led)?
Caitlin, Mai-Lynn, Lovisa, Rebecca, Amelia, Averil, Valerie, are the ones that come off the top of my head. Rosita and Eliana have their quests tied to the acquisition, same with Leia, but they're also purchasable.

Edit: Just realized I might have misread your question. If you're asking if you can buy unique characters, yes. Everyone from the Kyamanto syndicate is unique, everyone in the gallery at Crystal Heights is, and there's a chance to get randomly appearing uniques in the auctions, like the Dixon girl and the Stormchild.

What are you talking about??
If you started the game with the Tavern Owner trait for example and stuck Ansel in there, even with whoring and gambling turned off base chaos chance would be 15%.

It's once you have enough Guard Power and Power Value that you can get it down to 0-ish.

So you can't exactly buy a tavern ASAP, stick Doyle in there and call it a day, if you expect to gain reputation in a reasonable time frame.

If you want some more things to think of here's what I found when was collectin some stats about code. May not be very accurate since I didn't really use this info so didn't double check it. Everything is about version 0.8.4.7. And I removed all commented sections before parsing code since they'll never be executed.
  • Game has 645 passages in total. 54 are either called from old unused code but don't exist or they exist but never called.
  • Game sets or unsets around 9300 different variables, ~5200 are global and the rest are temporary. 359 of them are being unset in the code but are never assigned value. I didn't collect variables that are used in conditions but never set or unset like this $duckperv var but there are quite a few (I've seen at least 10 more).
The conslusion is that the game code has a huge amount of outdated stuff. Some things are commented out, some are surrounded by checks if it's version before 0830 which it isn't for a while but code is still there.
Yeah, the michelle apartment still existing to this day just show dev should do a cleaning spree into the code.

I think I found a small bug within the domestic events:

The event when one of my male household members ravages a floor crawler always targets Lovisa, probably because she's got AV ID 1. While it seems that any male who uses floor crawlers can be the culprit, it's always poor Lovisa who gets the sexual wear. Or did Grimdark really want her to be the only possible target?

The version I'm talking about is 8.4.7.

What has Poor Lovisa done to suffer so? Honestly I could see it being a Grim Easter egg.

Lore question: so from what I managed to glean from the end of "Prowler in the Depths", some hundred years after the Severance, Earth or some other human colony sent a probe to Raana warning them about a plague that was ravaging humanity out of control. Am I getting the timeline right? Is this plague related to the Severance, or is it something that happened later, after the stargate "mysteriously shut down"?

If you read all the books how is your manipulate only 31...?

Best way to increase is demand sex manipulatively, critical successes will bring you up to 100.

And yes, RPG campaign is one time.
yeah i read all book 1763441938671.png

i think i know why i only have 31 manipuate, iirc i use DX syringe, i think its only decrease str, dex, int, after i read again... yeah its decreasing manipulate.

Manipulate is one of the most used if not the most used skill for checks. Very often the game directly adds this skill value to the chance instead of using some thresholds to add small bonuses like for other skills. Manipulate is also involved in most of the difficult checks. That's why if there is a skill worth minmaxing it's surely manipulate, by minmaxing I mean using repeatable capped means of increasing it before reading books or doing other one time uncapped things to maximize final value.

If you have 31 after books you can get to 100 by just repeatedly asking for sex, but at 100 you can still sometimes fail some important checks so having extra points really help with that mental comfort, for example knowing your explain duties will succeed is pretty satisfying. Not sure how far you are in the game but because of that DX you could consider starting over, this time without using DX, or at least if you have some older saves, going before DX. This drug is a trap.

Yes probably severance happened because of this plague. But if you ask me why raana or other colonies(if there is any) did not reopen gates and unite humanity reason of this explains by "Milou Skye(The spaceship pilot)" (Dont worry i wont give you spoiler).

SugarCube.State.variables.averytwin = undefined
should get her back into the game, though not necessarily at auction. You could try setting the variable to 0 or 1 instead.
Thanks (Did not work)

I solve the problem with going auction hall edit html file's

<<if $adisplay is 106 and $takeslot is undefined>><<set $aage to 18>><<set $aback to -21>><<set $averytwin to true>><<set _lastname to "Dixon">><<set _averystop to true>><</if>>

line to
<<if 1==1>><<set $aage to 18>><<set $aback to -21>><<set $adisplay to 106>><<set $averytwin to true>><<set _lastname to "Dixon">><<set _averystop to true>><</if>>

reload buy dixon remove changes and save reload done

Oh yeah, you're fucked.

Should not have used the DX syringe, it's a noob trap.

Probably a time to start a new game.

Restarting a game doesn't take much time.

Looks like a considerable amount of work, it's up to you. I would restart, but I am also a little biased as I have no problems doing that, restarted many times to try different playstyles and generally speaking once you have everything the game becomes a little less fun, I enjoy the process of getting there more. Still it's your decision to make.

I would be the third to tell you, starting over makes everything better.
You know what / where to invest. You know where to build skills.
You know so much more what skills to give your main character.
You know where to find guys or girls you want.
Everything is better tailored to your desires.
