and at what time can I bring her a cocktail and what kind, I have already tried this too and received the answer, I have no thirst...(((((((((((
You can gain fp with Seraphine in two ways.
1) She asks you for a specific drink which gives 1 fp (only happens if she's wearing her default outfit, you didn't give her a drink today, time is between 1pm and 7pm and you haven't found a chambermaid for her yet)
2) You can give her a Stellar Shake for 2 fp (once per day at any time)

Sory, the GUI has not been designed for android. I develop and test for MAC, Linux and Win and can test on those devices only.

Later in the game there will be a bunch more interactions which require a keyboard so sadly at the moment the game is not compatible :(
Mhhh... what do you think, should I just add a disclaimer to my Android port posts that part of the game can't be played on Android, or should I remove the android port entirely to prevent people from potentially getting upset?

I don't have the capacity to add a hw platform that i do not have for testing.

If you have basic knowledge of renpy you can just add a little key widget in the mining screen.
If thats not possible I would remove the port to avoid misunderstanding.

Some users report its playable on joiplay, so android users might try that.

I haven't played since 1.40, I think. Could anyone please tell me how this game feels now?

I remember it was very fun and cozy at first, but then I figured that the grind was too much and those fetch quest are unnecessary (except the ones where you trade hull plates in bulk - a million or a half for every occasion): you'll need dozens of millions of money to progress; a million here, ten millions there.
I've never managed to progress much, but I suppose the loop repeats in the next system, and then in the next.

There is a lot of new art - is it all available or there are some placeholders?
I remember I was dissapointed that the Holodeck or something was of no use - is it available now? Can I use a hologram there?

Ah, interesting, Joiplay indeed looks to have a keyboard? Maybe that's a better option then than to try to play an android port.

Still, I couldn't resist experimenting a bit: if the mining game is the only minigame that's unplayable without keyboard, that'd be easily fixed if I add the following code to 730_mining.rpy line 162 as you suggest.
Code:
    if renpy.variant("small"):
        imagebutton idle "05_gui/mining button up.png" xpos 0.85 ypos 0.45 action Return("up")
        imagebutton idle "05_gui/mining button left.png" xpos 0.8 ypos 0.55 action Return("left")
        imagebutton idle "05_gui/mining button right.png" xpos 0.9 ypos 0.55 action Return("right")
        imagebutton idle "05_gui/mining button down.png" xpos 0.85 ypos 0.65 action Return("down")
        textbutton "{size=50}Mine!{/size}" xpos 0.85 ypos 0.75 action Return(["fire", mField[mPos[0]][mPos[1]], mPos])
        text "Press Directional Buttons To Move And Align Laser Horizontally And Vertically" size FSIZE_MED xalign 0.5 ypos 1000
    else:
        text "CURSOR KEYS or WASD = Move And Align Laser Horizontally And Vertically / SPACE = Mine" size FSIZE_MED xalign 0.5 ypos 1000
Just curious: Is there any other functionality in your game that'd be completely unplayable without keyboard?

Pay her a visit after 13:00 and make sure she wears her normal outfit.
Milkshakes can be given once a day regardless time or outfit

Does anyone know if there is a way to complete the mining minigame on Android, since there is no keyboard?
Could you try out the new compressed version for Android, in which I made the following changes?
Code:
    if renpy.variant("small"):
        imagebutton idle "05_gui/mining button up.png" xpos 0.85 ypos 0.45 action Return("up")
        imagebutton idle "05_gui/mining button left.png" xpos 0.8 ypos 0.55 action Return("left")
        imagebutton idle "05_gui/mining button right.png" xpos 0.9 ypos 0.55 action Return("right")
        imagebutton idle "05_gui/mining button down.png" xpos 0.85 ypos 0.65 action Return("down")
        textbutton "{size=50}Mine!{/size}" xpos 0.85 ypos 0.75 action Return(["fire", mField[mPos[0]][mPos[1]], mPos])
        text "Press Directional Buttons To Move And Align Laser Horizontally And Vertically" size FSIZE_MED xalign 0.5 ypos 1000
    else:
        text "CURSOR KEYS or WASD = Move And Align Laser Horizontally And Vertically / SPACE = Mine" size FSIZE_MED xalign 0.5 ypos 1000

If you were turned off by the grinding back then, I don't think it has changed any since then, so you probably wouldn't like it now.

I will say that when you start a new game, there should be an option to skip to Day XX. I never tried it, but my assumption is that it lets you skip over some of the basic grinding and unlock more of the content.

I only found this game when it was on 2.0 and, personally, I enjoyed it. The grind is still there and can be a bit tedious, but I broke it up with copious amounts of smashing raiders for bounty missions.
The game can actually be completed. The holodeck is used now, but it isn't some interactive VR you can go into, it is part of the story line with Space Bimbo.
When you look at the Gallery, there are 10 or so pages of scenes or achievements to unlock and I don't think I encountered any placeholder images.

Bots in the Sex Arcade is your ticket to making money.
With 10 bots you can make a million credits a day and once you unlock all the systems and start getting higher end bot parts and shells you can, easily, bring in 5-10 million credits a day (and probably much more).
By the time I reached the Quthor system, I could drop 50-100 million credits and not even blink. Well trained, high end, bots pretty much eliminates any need to 'grind for cash'.

The combat game is fully playable with mouse, as will the new interior combat RPG module.
Engine maintenance and cargo Bay are also fully playable with mouse only and all the dialogues have hot keys but also clickable dialogue options.
I might have forgotten something but could be that the mining game was the only one because that was also the very first mini game I implemented.

Perfect! This is how my "fix" looks. Is it okay with you then if I keep the android port up?
