Ren'Py Completed Space Journey X [v2.20_022] [y.v.]

[sillyrobot]

A couple of questions wrt 1.30:

1) I am investigating if the gate was sabotaged. I am at the jumpgate on the Quthor side. The hint says talk to Vee. The only chats coming from Vee are typical filler (introduced to autotrainer, swarm hasn't entered this space, etc.) I've tried approaching her all time periods she is accessible (0800 - 2200, skipping 1200 and 1500). What did I miss?

2) The mission 'Explore the Quthor system' remains in my log even though I recovered to fragment and have advanced past that. Is this expected?

Nr. 2 is a bug, thats fixed in 1.40. Doesn't have any effects except for being not purged in 1.30.

Nr. 1 might be an obsolete hint. The Gate repair quest is triggered by accessing (clicking) the gate when you are near it.

D'oh! Thank you. Actually approaching the jump gate did in fact advance the situation.

*edit*

On another note, since I have you here, the base's auto-buying doesn't seem to work with standard ship subunits (flux modulators and the like). None get purchased.

Should not differentiate in behaviour. registered as bug. thanks for submitting it.
In general you can only auto buy stuff you actually possess in stock / have your hands on currently.

When installing the Dark Mirage, any cloak modules from the previous shield remain installed. Do they do anything or are only the highly elusive Underverse modules effective?

The hellhammer removes the area effect modules.

Just a note, I have 1 unit of each type on my ship and 1 unit of each in the warehouse. The buy threshold is set to 10 for them all. Other objects (torpedoes and pods) do get purchased.

That seems to be an oversight as well. The conventional modules should be all uninstalled when the system is equipped.

Mainly I am thinking of an episode a la "Revolt of the Rebel Sexbots" where she will be the leader of the pack...

A big SUB training package will com with 1.50 "Adventures In Krell Space" (Moira, Nimhe, Seraphine...)

D'oh - Version 1.40 isn't out yet and I'm already waiting for 1.50...

....Thanks!

That's plainly cruel.
I'm going back in my cave to hypebernate another month.

Small Heads Up on 1.40

I am currently in the final stages of development, around 90% done.
Biggest part thats left is writing the ending. I think Beta on Patreon / SubStar can start in around 10 days

Preview Image: Docking on the Waystation before returning home...

There will not be different endings, which in PT were a mistake to do imho.
It will be more an "outlook" / "where are they now" style of ending I think.

In an unrelated matter

// RANT_ON
In the meantime I have completely ditched Adobe (after 8 years of paying) and migrated to Affinity. Works nicely.
All my assets are usable. Computer is faster too.
Cost me two days too to get their spyware off my System.
F*ck you Adobe for scanning my files and planning to steal my stuff for your AI features instead of really improving your software...

You are using 1.30.15b-1, an outdated version. 15d in OP has this issue fixed.
Just install and load your save. It's save game compatible to all 1.30.x.

Thanks. I was using the one acquired from the site 5 days ago. I missed the update.

All those years pirating Photoshop were vindicated.

You are not the only one, rightfully, angry at them. This is what a friend of mine sent me for a laugh:

Analyzed issue. That is as designed. Compatible add ons are retained when subsystems are swapped.

Well, Iltari is a decent place so Krell Uniforms in Public are prohibited
As to the public pet training that feature might still be expanded post 1.40

I'm assuming that the player's ability to bribe the station authorities enough for a station policy change is still in the design stage. I was more referencing just adding more/different dialogue options (especially once the player figures out how to update T'ris's free choice uniform), although I doubt anyone would say no to more graphical options... especially since there is already some gating logic as it relates to stat changes.

Also, as much as I love those new updated versions of T'ris's uniform (and whoever else gets them later), odd that the "Free Uniform" option doesn't actually produce a fictional choice by the NPCs, it just means crewmates wear their original uniforms (or an updated version once that has been achieved). Maybe also have a "normal" option? But then again, maybe trying to decide how to do the maths for weighting stats choices just isn't worth the effort...

 

[initiated]

I think its a hint that you CAN have T'Ris go outside in krell uniform in a less decent station ( like that pirate station).

Speaking of whihc - i do hope for more activity and the ability to explore more the pirate station in iltari system. maybe interact with that woman in the bar. Both for the upstairs thing she mentions and for quests and easter eggs and stuff.

I implemented it in a very basic way so far.

- there are (a) complementary traits (flexible/inflexible, nympho/frigid, etc..)
- there are (b) independent traits (playful, ...)

Some trait combos give merits, such as
- additional stats on max talents
- modifications of likes/dislikes

I didn't go much further, as the design is rudimentary at the moment.

If I change anything for the traits, I would probably start with behavioural events during training, e.g.
- "x gained 5 talent points in category ORA due to your rigorous training in that discipline..."
- "due to extended BON training, x has acquired the trait 'flexible'"
- "having been trained to > 100 in all 5 disciplines, x has gained the trait 'perverted')
and something of the kind

There might also be negatives. 'x cortex has burned out due to...', but I haven't thought about such mechanics in detail yet.

Further aspects could be
- sending your bot to competitions, earning medals (that add to the bots value)...
- getting bots sent to "straighten them out" and earning a big reward....
- ...

I do like how that sounds, i'm looking forward to your games
