Crabby Camgirls: In previous version of the game, I couldn't get camgirls to work. I've got them going now, and it really helps a lot. They all are "slightly annoyed" though. I move the slider around and even if I allow them to keep almost all of the money they generate, they're not happy. Is this a bug or are camgirls just meant to be crabby?
CamGirl income is directly limited by Network Efficiency and they know it. If you're only running at 50% capacity then they're only making 50% of their potential. I've found that if you are at less than 100% to keep your cut at no more than 20%. If your network is at a full 100% you should be able to get up to 25% out of them without ill effects.

A manager assigned to the +10 daily happiness bonus is a must for everything; so much that I wonder why any other options are even listed. Nothing else compares. More happiness equals models willing to do scenes more often, staff complaining about their pay less, happier camgirls and a film crew that can actually shoot more than one scene per week without quitting on you.

Hi, i am unable to assign Models to photoshoot.

I've made contract with girls that have photomodel traits. When I open production windows. I am unable to click on "Assign models to photo studio".

I already hired a director and other people to work in the studio.

please help

Unless something has changed in the most recent build I think photomodels can only fulfil contract requirements yet. So keep an eye out for the contract alerts on the phone and if your photomodels can meet the arbitrary standards you'll make some dough. Not worth the trouble in my opinion. Especially given that the photomodels eat up contract spots for more deserving models.

Speaking of contracts, can the rivals steal your contracted male models? Given that good male models are so difficult to find in game I think the rivals stealing male models would be more annoying, right?

Thanks for reply.

I need to open photo studio because there is a corruption option for staff. I already have studio up and running but unable to send staff to it studio.png

Is this a new thing? In my experience, at least in older versions you just had to focus on avoiding models with perks causing happiness loss to their partners. I didn't test things thoroughly, but I was left under the impression that they affected crew members, too.

Btw, I agree with LarsThorwald on STD immunity costing too much. One solution could be the introduction of different levels of likelihood for models to catch STDs through trashiness/classiness attribute; trashy prostitutes and club girls are more likely to fuck around unprotected than more sophisticated girls you meet at the library or yoga class. Or if new attribute is out of the question, just tie it to intelligence.

i'm playing around with combat mechanics but most likely wont include them in PE. i think tycoon releated stuff is the way to go.
feel like hacking goblins and bandits is better suited for some other game.

more rival company things are coming in the future
Have you considered "Share warfare" as option to finally take over the other companies? Free cities lets make you your own company into a stock exchange company and you can buy shares from the rivaling free cities. Might be useful as inspiration.

Also the nastyness of random events where the other companies do evil stuff against you could be tied in at how many shares you already have from them. The closer you are to taking them over the fiercer their resistence will be.

I hope and pray for balance for perks system cause STD immunity more than 10+ if not maybe add more positive and negative perks it would be great would be like drug addiction one of negative perks the girl will never do a scene without drugs and maybe increase the price to buy drugs? I would hope you could maybe add crafting system like crafting your own home made drugs and alcohol this would be police might search or raid your own home, I don't know if this would be great but I would be hopeful if overdose to be add in the game. I just hope and pray maybe someday

probably a bug then. i'll check.

I understand the current largest ones are a bit beyond normal already, but it'd be a nice to have the option for even larger ones. The game depicts porn industry in a good light with its advertised positive stereotypes (e.g., guy gets easy money for banging hot chicks), and some actors packing a foot-long some gifted women are able to make disappear inside their bottomless pussies is one of the most well-known (false) stereotypes of porn. "Monster cock" perk could gradually affect scenes with a selection of girls's perks; with a somewhat common "tight" a loss to chemistry, with a somewhat common "size queen" an increase to chemistry, and with a rare "bottomless" a huge increase to chemistry.

i'll get to it at some point
stds will be changed, so i'll also drop the immunity perk reqs.

great idea. need to figure out something great.
probably tied to whats in now. stealing their stars and increasing your marketshare will drop their value. also ordering reputation hits and whatnot.
you could eventually buy them all out but there should be some limit or whatever.
like you can buy them all out, but you will have to keep up with the market demand (impossible for all categories, or only with extreme micromangment), so new rival companies will be formed as a result and you'll get a reputation hit. something like that.

overdose might not be a abd idea. let's say a timer start running when first addiction comes into place. as we go they become addicted to more substances and finally overdose. at least you'd be forced to send them to rehab coz now there's no big penalties if you dont.

Maybe if they overdose, they go to rehab and get clean and become super-wholesome and won't do porn anymore? You could run into them at church where they're running a bake sale or something haha

IIRC, buying the nightclub has been tied into the plot of two new story NPCs that you can meet at the Wellness Center.
