I want to like this game but there are a few things preventing me from liking this game. For instance I would love to be able to change the size of the game to fit my screen size. I have an ultrawide 3440x1440p and a good portion is cut off when trying to play in full screen. That's just a minor annoyance.
But I hate that I don't have a clue what I'm doing in this game. No matter what I seem to do I end up losing money and going into debt almost immediately simply just by hiring a bartender, fixing the kitchen, hiring staff for that and keeping inventory full. I've tried buying different quality of foods and nothing seems to matter. I'm losing way more money than I ever earn so the only way I can play this game is by cheating.
Next I simply don't understand relationships in this game it seems like everyone hates my character most of the time. So basically the only way I can get anyone to like me is to throw money at them as a gift. Not only that but the off chance that someone tries to hook up with my character they simply want to kiss and grope it never goes past that. Because by the time I get their arousal up high enough to get past that both of our characters run out of energy. That happens every time it's so annoying.
Lastly I tried convincing the sister to like incest but yeah that never happened. I literally went through and tried convincing her she loved pretty much every option available but when it came to incest it was always a no go for her.
Xxxsms00 response is spot on. Just do what he suggests. If everyone hates your character look at the reason why. With few exceptions everyone's opinion towards you should be neutral and its how you interact with them that causes them to like or hate you. Pay attention to the messages that say that someone likes you less and stop doing whatever it was that you just did. If you can't get people to like you, you won't get very far.
Does the MC‘s Mom appear in the Game too or only the 2 Sisters?
No mom yet. Maybe at some point.
Really enjoying this game so far, but I ran into an issue and wonder if I can make a quick suggestion. Is there any way to change the employee's days off so if they share the same job they can't all take the day off? Had my club get damaged twice because (1st) both the restroom attendants took the day off, (2nd) had 3/4 of the janitors take the day off and didn't notice(my fault). Also don't know if this is a bug yet, but any time I hold an amateur contest I don't get the prompt to watch it or do anything. Is it a law based issue? I didn't even have the revealing clothing law passed when I tried to hold the first 2 but will update as I progress.
I've started on a work shifts concept twice now and have abandoned it because it's too complex and honestly doesn't solve the problem. If both your bartenders take off the same day, you just have to step up and do it yourself. If that becomes a problem get workers that like to work more and are less lazy (high greed, high will power). Restroom attendants and janitors don't generate immediate revenue so no need to worry about it.
You should get a popup when your contest is about to start. When you schedule it, make sure it shows up in the calendar. You don't need the revealing clothing law to have them. So if they are not triggering there could be some issue that's preventing them. I'm not sure what it would be. I'll take a closer look to see what could be causing this but this is the first report of this issue I've seen.
QOL request:
Currently, if we have the maximum number of workers, we can't create a new job offer, which is logic (or is it? What if I want to find prospects before firing someone?)
The issue is that I can't reassign employees without a job offer.
I hired a singer that had good singing and dancing skill, trained her to get even better stats, the issue is, she has low lewdness so her shows are only "fair".
On the other hand, I have a sound booth and an entrance that are empty, and I thought I would put her in one of those positions. But I can't, because I can't create a job offer.

Also, are the characters stats random or are they tied to their portrait? It seems weird some people are hot and always dress lightly, yet they have very low lewdness, while some other are very ugly, have conservative clothes but have a very high lewdness.
It feels like I will have to open an eating contest retirement home instead of a strip club.

Edit:
During the sex scenes, when the option to move to another more private place appears, one of the current interactions (I want to do X to X, or I want X to do X to me) doesn't appear.
I guess it's because the game limits the display to 6 interactions?
Edit2: Or not, maybe it's just with kissing.
The reassign job when the club is full has been another often requested issue. I've not been able to come up with a good fix for it due to how certain things are implemented. It's still on the list but I don't expect I'll get to it for a while.
Most characters stats are random. However, lewdness is affected by how relatively revealing a characters clothing is (i.e. if the characters regular clothes are very revealing they will have higher than normal lewdness). There's a connection but it's not 100%, so exceptions are always possible. (There are other factors that change a characters lewdness as well that may override their clothing).
And yes, the kissing option (and the sex one) are "symmetric" so they don't have the second direction. Those will lead to one less option.
i finally found the problem, it's in my modifiers.txt, i changed a whole bunch of stuff there.
btw, is there a way to change the 'having to know eachother for 60 days' to like 30 days or something...?
edit: i've added the file, if you want you could look if you can spot where i made a mistake which caused me to not be able to propose. (btw the NPC's also couldnt't propose to eachother)
Not sure if this is what you meant to do but you've made a lot of negative actions result in positive opinions (i.e. you are rude to someone and now they are going to like you more). Anyway, I don't care if that's what you want to do, but just figured I point it out. But the issue is that the "just_met" modifier which is what blocks proposing a relationship to someone you just met you changed it from a -2 to 10. That modifier has a decay factor of 12, which means that it loses 12 points every year (or 1 every month). The default value of -2 means that it decays to 0 in 2 months. But when you changed it to 10, now it will take 10 months to decay. So this is blocking your proposals for that long.
If you want to reduce the proposal block to 30 days, the proper change would have been to change the -2 to -1:
mod just_met "Just Met" -1 12 1
Now that I DL'd all the girl-packs, I was wondering about the characters folder, and how robust the code was:
If i wanted to play with only redhead girls, could I delete all the girls from /characters/ except the redheads, and the game would be fine with that? IE, each girl pack comes with 600 images with a certain labeling system to the image names. Will removing randomly images/people break the game?
Also, since this is a sim game, a setting to fine-tune race probability in config.dat or settings would be a nice QOL to have. You already have it for M/F, after all. Same thing with age and BMI. I don't mind a few fat or old girls occasionally, but not this many.
Also, when using ai to make the people, how do you eliminate the backgrounds and make them into transparent pngs quickly? I could remove the backgrounds by hand with Photoshop, but that takes a while, especially since there is 12 pngs per person. Is there a tool/app that automates that?
Keep up the good work, bro.

As others pointed out, you can remove any characters you don't like. (Just make sure to remove all the files for that character). But the more characters you remove the higher the chances of getting the default (masked) images.
TotalFluke What exactly is the non-consensual content? I've never seen any options to force someone into sex.
There's not much. During a sex scene you can force yourself on someone if they don't want to. And there's the option to drug them as well. And maybe a scene or two when you can have your way with someone who is passed out. But as the following post explains you need to enable it in the config file.
Gotta enable it in the config.
# remove all set it to - like the commented line below it
#taboos string noncon,incest,racism
taboos string -
#taboos string noncon,incest,racism # list of all supported taboos
This is how I have it in the config.dat and it enabled it for me, once you get past kissing you can ask them to give handjob/be fingered whatever depending on PC gender and if they aren't comfortable with it you can try to pressure them into it or force yourself onto them. Unfortunately not a whole lot of content there.
TotalFluke - I'd love to see being able to be a female PC or even male PC being assaulted by NPC's, It might already be possible and I've just never encountered it organically, Im trying to set it up on my Female PC playthrough and so far no luck from brother who is Loves Incest, Non-Con and rough sex, might be too high on opinion to be fair.
That can happen, but it's rare. It would need to be someone that likes rape which is very rare opinion. And then have the necessary will (high), honor (low) and lewdness (high) required for it to happen. It's also much less likely to happen if they like you enough. You can find out who are those that are willing to do it because your hear the gossips about it (that rumor spreads pretty fast).
