Camgirls are a pain in the ass unless you specialize towards them.
You can manually give them breaks, but that would be a chore to micromanage 30 camgirls.
To optimize camgirls more:
- Assign a marketer to each one so their fame rises faster, the more fame the higher their income.
- Assign each model merchandise (for now there's no cost to use this and it gives free fame)
- Assign marketers to camshows in the marketing tab to 100% (you can also increase spending, sometimes it's better to spend $5k on weekly spending than to spend $5k on hiring another marketer for example), if it's not at near 100% you aren't making the full income you would be making
- Hire production PA and use boost camshow earning policy
- Hire financial PA and use 33% cheaper maintenance
- Besides fame, the other most important stat that directly increase a camgirl's income is beauty. I personally never assign a model with less than 80 beauty. Nobody wants to watch an ugly camgirl, just like in real life. I mostly use models with 100+ beauty even if her other stats aren't that great.
- Only use models with good traits if you can. Any model with Blueballs, Idol, and/or Virgin trait should automatically be assigned as a camgirl, they will become your top earners. If you can't find any, look for traits like attractive, cute, passionate, etc that give scene revenue modifiers, these are all stacking multipliers.
- I can't stress enough how important it is to send your camgirls to the spa and massage and sign a contract with them, this will give them a daily total happiness boost of +8. The happier camgirls are, the more often they stream. If you just throw a model into camshow and expect her to earn free money, it won't work out so well.
- If you're loaded with money, in the late game, paying $200,000 monthly investment will give all models a +5 happiness. It sounds crazy but it pays back major dividends. And when I'm making $50k per day with camgirls, $200k a month is nothing.
- Personally, I still hover around 50% cut for my camgirls, it seems to be the sweet spot with the current balancing. You can get away with taking a 70% for some girls.
- Keep web admin efficiency at 100%
There's some unknown factors mbmb put in that makes some girls more adverse to this and unhappy for unknown reasons (at least he hasn't told me yet the details). I still don't understand why some models have a -9 daily unhappiness and some have a -22 daily unhappiness and others a +5 daily happiness. I suspect it is they lose happiness with each scene and once they hit 0 happpiness, their daily unhappiness resets to +5 daily happiness.
Again, I apologize, because he saw that I was doing too well with camgirls and he may have overcorrected the numbers to bring my success back in line with everyone else's struggling poverty gameplay.
