I've also noticed this.
Sometimes, after making changes and saving the game, when I reach the screen with the yellow font "..." (seems like a settlement screen?), the values revert back to their original state.
I've given up on making further changes, perhaps as the module creator mentioned, the values have reached their limit.

i have no clue what you mean by screen with "..." buty yes if you change stats then rollback you are basically erasing your changes so if you hit a menu choice then needs a stat rollback a frame before the chice menu pops up change the stats then click to go forward back to the menu choice.. you're making it sound alot harder then it is... and yes all stats have a cap love 40, trust with chuck/aug 10 etc etc (i can't remember them all off the top of my head)

Sorry, I think my English expression might not be very good..
Just like in my attached picture.

Is this the final version of the mod for this update or were you planning on adding more "both" choices before the next game update? Thanks for all the work on this btw.

i'm still adding some more option like but just doing it in my spare time as i play through the game again

think i added about 10 so far (due note most of them aren't sex options, like one is when you can choice to call someone before bed the can call all now, so nothing "game changing")

Ok gone over week 1, now it going to have 4 mod options for scene
1 and 2, the girls interviews, do all 3, and see both scene with the girl kat is interviewing.
3, hana's band scene talk to the boss and Jacob
4, Ending of the main event. join in and hangout with hana


Now on to week 2!
For the interview, are we supposed to see the option to do all 3 when we have to choose ? Because there's no option there.

Sorry if someone already asked.

Edit: so I chose one, hoping it would transition over afterwards but it didn't so I guess the choice is supposed to be there.
The disco and end of prologue one were there, as well as the one for the art exhibition if I remember correctly (before I replay from the beginning). Have the others not been added yet or is there an issue with my files ?

I'm getting this error after applying the mod and launching the game. Any ideas?
I tried some things with no luck, like giving permissions or even downloading latest renpy version and running the game from there as a project.

Code:
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:

Thanks for your reply! I have already re-download both game&mod with no effect. I unzip the mod folder and merge the "game" folders of game&mod(wasn't asked for replace) just like any other game. Is there any other step needed? I didn't have this issue again.
For permissions I gave all subfolders and files "755" rights which is like any other game. Still no luck. The only other possible issue I found from the internet is the old renpy version of my linux distro which may have a conflict with many rpyc files but as I said, trying to run it with the last official renpy sdk, still got the same error but maybe my method was wrong.

This is the game folder contents: (Note that no other mod is installed and game runs normal without applying this mod)

After adding the Week1.rpy I get this error.
Code:
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

So in my understanding the rpy files are at least able to parse? Is there a way I can change all rpyc to rpy files?
