can't catch Delia Beaumont in hotel lobby, guide says she is there on Saturday and Sunday from day 33, maybe she spawns there at specific time?

It's in the morning/afternoon usually, unless you have progressed and she is moved. after you finish her story she's back in the hotel but mid story she will be at her shop.

Any idea how many characters you want to add/flesh out? I know there are the twins? at the school, the lady at the restaraunt and the doctors in the Hospital. Would you consider the game "done" after those are finished?

mbmb Outside of the current mod guide pdf, event system pdf, and the 2022 blog post on modding random events, do you have a list of what is exposed to the modded random events? I'm trying to dip my toes into it and ended up with a few questions I couldn't seem to find the answers to:
  • You can specify a required "characteristics":[] list, which makes all the randomly generated characters use that list. Is there a way to make a characteristics pool, or do you need to make separate events for each permutation?
    • i.e. currently setting ["Asian","Latina"] results in only Latinas as it seems to take the last applicable one. Workaround is to make 2 events, one with ["Asian"] and one with ["Latina"]. Could get large depending on total combinations (Ethnicity, body type, hair color)
  • Places like the Streets tend to generate lower stats compared to places like the hotel or Uni. Is there a way to specify ranges or criteria for various stats or depravity?
    • For instance, specifying that Fitness needs to be between 45-90, or set a min depravity of 45
  • Is there (or will there be) support for custom traits?
    • For instance, a custom trait that would be the opposite of Daddy Issues leading to Double Happiness loss with a 20+ year older partner, or a custom trait like Just for Fun but for Staff members (like a company man willing to take a bit lower salary)
  • Is there a way to call up other elements/UIs within dialog, or otherwise access their functionality?
    • For instance, a random event where you convince an NPC to join and sign a contract within conversation, potentially bypassing the company reputation requirement (will sign with a _ star company or more)
here's the latest modding guide

you can also download event packs from sewerpygmy on discord and learn from examples. he's utilizing everything since most of the commands are his suggestions anyway.
you can always ask me for anything.
- for characteristic tags, you have to specify exactly. ["asian", "latina] will just (i think) always take latina, since it checks those tags in alphabetical order.
theres "appearance" command in which you can do an array of values for specific body parts, like noses or hairs and it will roll a random one.
but i can also make a random roll for characteristic tags if thats what you need.

-not at creation of a npc. you'd have to use commands in conversation to set depravity ("set_depravity":60)
again, i can make it.

-custom traits are done already(v0.91), but the effects are be limited. you won't be able to do wild shit like bonus popularity on tuesdays if it's raining and the partner has green eyes...
+/- attributes, happiness and popularity bonuses
if you need something specific now's the time

-in theory it would be possible, but i'd have to connect signals for confirming contract popups and such. feels like it would be a mess.
it's easier for me to just invent a new variable and you set it during conversation, like "bypass_contract_reqs":true
name the things you want

what influence do i need to be able to change their clothes... (or my own for that matter lol)
didnt even know that influence is tied to outfit changing. it should only be for appearance, surgeries and stuff.

How do you increase star rating of company?
Is it all tied to reputation, no easy way to work it out? I want to sign girls to contract who need 2 star company and I appear to be stuck at 1.
on the reputation tab, the more you get to the bottom of that list the more impact those things have on reputation. so completing work orders and having top stars on contract is worth more than most of the things on top.
i'll make it more clear in the next update.

Any idea how many characters you want to add/flesh out? I know there are the twins? at the school, the lady at the restaraunt and the doctors in the Hospital. Would you consider the game "done" after those are finished?
i dont know, i'll probably stop soon. i might even drop some of them.
maybe it would be better to add "part 2" of existing ones. then keep on adding new ones.

Please, how do I, as a Male MC, can add custom male characters? The only place I can recruit is the Military Base and it is not listed on the options for spawning.

Is there a way to speed up/eliminate sanctions ?

a few bug reports

1. something seems wrong with some staff happiness. +/- (sometimes high amounts) with jobs they like. happiness really does seem to drop. an example with different pay and job settings. can fix by changing job.

2. hiding models with unpublished scenes in the production menu would be an awesome feature if it worked and also included scheduled models.

1708186212977.png

3. think i reported this one a while ago but it's still there and i noticed something new. custom colour for promises made to model works but also gives model that colour if training is disabled and no promises have been made.

otherwise the game continues to get better and better.

you've put the files in the wrong directory
if you're on windows
C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Godot\app_userdata\Porn Empire\mods\characters
where xxx is your user

most likely from happiness drop.

it happens like 2-3 weeks after the first visit.
after that you can encounter them at the park. are they there?

1. if you hover over the happiness bar does it show what contributes to such a big negative?
2. yeah, forgot to include videos that havent been edited yet or are mid editing. it excludes only girls that have scenes in "ready to publish" category. fixed.
scheduled models should be put into its own category. if they're unavailable that of course takes priority so you dont see them.
3. i've probably reused some code not thinking it would trigger this.

Edit: Old comment was about Reputation and about my confusion about the star system, it took me several new saves and quite a while to notice it wasnt bugged and got my first star by accident when one of my staff resigned.

As a small advice, might wanna check the tutorial since its outdated, confusing and a bit missinformative when talking about reputation. As a returning player i was very confused when tutorial says that should take around 5 scenes to get rep 1 but the rep upgrade never came (even after 70 scenes) it must be even more confusing for new players.

Maybe the version published here is not meant to be public in which case you can forget this comment, but if its not i would suggest updating the tutorial popup about reputation beacause it might be quite confusing. BTW i like the direction the game is headed with less mechanics being tied to rep and rep being a lot harder to get.

ah yes. i reported this part inaccurately sorry. the issue is that many models with scheduled scenes don't get put into the scheduled section of the list as in the screenshots below. i took these after going back to the office and then returning to production in case that fixed it.

Screenshot 2024-02-21 145202.png Screenshot 2024-02-21 145251.png

One more thing, is it deliberate that the right hand PA reports wrongly on a model's addiction status during a casting? I encounter them being wrong both in reporting addicts that have no addiction and vice versa.

I noticed that anytime I run my browser cleaner all my save games get deleted. Might want to start saving games in a different location.

yeah i know about the tutorial. game is alpha and changing a lot with every update, so some things become obsolete.
and then i just forgot to update it...
suffering through ui and deciphering what dev meant to do is part of this game lmao

I'm on android and i did make the folders for mods and characters,I can import the characters if I want to play as them but i can't make them load as stars.Are mods not working on android or am i doing something wrong?
you cannot mod on android unless you have a rooted phone.
all the save files and mod files are on partition that are not accessible with regular permissions.
rooting your phone will make you lose your warranty and in rare cases brick your phone, but you can remove all the google shit and other spyware.
highly recommended.

do you maybe have a save at that exact point?

it's not deliberate.

saves are in appdata, your browser should absolutely not have access to those files except its own
with cleaning appdata you're also losing settings for all the other programs you're using. not sure if unity games also save their savefiles there.

i have attached a save renamed .sav. if you were talking about the right hand getting addiction wrong error, as far as I've found I can't reproduce it every time with the same model but if I go through enough models it will show up eventually. two examples below.

1. model has addictions visible in profile, right hand says they have no issues, offering free drugs receives a positive response
Clipboard07.png Clipboard08.png Clipboard09.png
2. model has no addictions in profile, right hand says they are an addict, offering free drugs receives a negative response
Clipboard04.png Clipboard05.png Clipboard06.png
