Unity Strip Club Wars [v1.07] [Total Fluke Studios]

[Magister Crudi]

Not sure which clan tends to have the most elongated and gangly limbs but she definitely isn't human.

If she offered me a blowjob I might have to decline - if she gave me the option.

 

[Magister Crudi]

By the way, have you seen his "comfortable clothes" picture? One of the worse guys in general IMO.

As far as I know there's no 'Used Car Salesman' in the game, so I figured politics was the best place for him.

This time I employed him as a Lifeguard. You think his "comfortable clothes" are bad ...?

 

[Magister Crudi]

Well, nobody is perfect. That is overly perfect imperfection though. Wonder whether the bug (since she cannot be below -100 in theory) can be repaired by, uhm, "training".

I didn't employ her but I have been, err, 'socialising' with her. And yes it can.

 

[Magister Crudi]

If you do see it, do this as soon as the initial screen appears before you respond, click on the girl's name and check to see the relationship to you. See if it says Friend there.

It took a while to recur but finally has. I think it's because I was spending a lot of time in sex rooms ... persuading my employees to be more enthusiastic about their work of course. Strictly business. When I started spending more time in the seating areas, which tend to have upwards of 10 NPCs in them and is the only place it's occurred so far, it happened again and this is what I got when I followed your instructions. Another hint is that all the NPCs it's happened with have first names that sort towards the end of the alphabetical list.

As a further test I answered "No" to her friend request. She remains my friend but took a 3 point hit to her opinion of me.

 

[TotalFluke]

I'm sure you're right. But if the effect is that small, maybe it should only be mentioned somewhere in help text rather than prominently in the UI. if I've taken the time to learn someone's characteristics, and the game tells me that one approach will be more likely to work on them than another, I'd expect that effect to be significant enough to be distinguishable.

It's small in the sense that it's not guaranteed to hit 100% of the time. But in the long run it's significant. At 100, it adds or subtracts 30 points, at -100 it subtracts or adds 30 points, depending on whether it's a positive or negative correlation. While the other factors can be around 50-100. There's too many variables involved to say exactly what the impact is, but the hints are there because I think they are useful. You are free to ignore them if you disagree.

At this stage of the game, with public nudity and sex in public allowed, it's rare to get a negative response to even the most explicit photos. But on a related issue it seems a little odd that reposting a photo the NPC himself/herself has posted to social media can offend them for 'invading their privacy'.

BTW, I'm guessing Alana's suggestion she performs on stage with her daughter was just a pitch. After employing her and influencing her and her daughter to be more positive towards each other there's still no sign they might perform together either on or, *ahem*, off stage.

It's not that it will offend them, is that the person posting them doesn't know if it will and rather not take the risk in the case they care about the person in the photo. Regardless of laws and whatnot, I believe this is how people most normal behave. And second of all, they never repost others photos, only you can do that. They only post photos they themselves take.

There's no scene that you can see the mother/daughter performing at the same time, however, you may hear about some satisfied customers that did see it.

This applicant says she has 1 year's experience as a sex worker.
No wonder she needs a new job.

So the -106 or whatever is a bug. That should never be below -100. Will fix that.

I guess it's conclusive. NPCs lie in their job applications.

I employed Davey Black as a janitor at the start of the game when he admitted he had no work experience. But his 100 Lewdness made him an ideal candidate when an election came up for his district, so I sent him to City Hall.

Two years later all the laws I'm interested in have been passed so I've stopped paying attention to elections and Davey was rolled by my marketing manager.

Now Davey is back at my club looking for work and making exaggerated claims about his experience. I guess that's the sort of skill working in politics teaches you.

This is a bug. I'm not sure where that's coming from, but the experience they give is their actual experience. Obviously there's a glitch with how that experience is being calculated. I had not seen that before, but in general you don't often get to interview the same person twice with a big gap in between (and if I have, no way I remember their initial work experience). The only way to see someone experience is to have them go thru the interview process, so I can't readily check to see if its working. But will check it out.

Oh FFS... it's just a stupid typo. I found the issue. Will be fixed on the next release. I was convinced that the issue was that the friend relation was being lost, but it's actually that the boss relation (your relation to her, from her perspective) is causing the friend relationship to be ignored. Thanks!

 

[Magister Crudi]

It took a while, but I finally sorted it.
Alana's a shrink (with no college degree) so I guess this is family therapy.

 

[Magister Crudi]

Oh FFS... it's just a stupid typo.

Yeah, they're bummers.
The way you described it made it sound like a dropthrough in a conditional statement. Missed an 'else'.

Gotta admit I'm not really playing this as a game anymore. I've sort of slipped into the OCD state I use for apps testing.

If you're still on the lookout for spelling and grammatical glitches, when confiding NPCs refer to "my comissioner" and the "You has undressed" during threesomes clangs a bit.

Also I think the opinion modifiers could do with some tweaking. I'm still not sure what constitutes or causes the different sized secrets or why/how they detract from someone's opinion (shared secrets normally enhance opinions) and it seems a bit odd that having anal sex with someone indifferent to it gives a big boost to their opinion of you.

As well as the secrets, I'd like to understand what a "bonding moment" is or what triggers it.

 

[Magister Crudi]

And since we're asking, what's the story with the private investigator you meet at your bar early in the game?

Is that just a bit of atmosphere, the stub of an unwritten quest or am I missing something here?

That's unfortunate. I wanted to give the mom a job that would not interfere with any story line and didn't realize the college aspect of it. Basically the shrink job is permanent which means no club can hire her. So that way I make sure that she's doesn't take another job while hassling you for one. Not sure if it's worth fixing. Just know she won't very good at her job

Any and all spelling corrections are welcome. I normally miss the second i of commissioner. The "You has" is a bit more difficult to deal with. There's a couple of "You is" around as well that I haven't been motivated enough to fix.

The secrets basically means that this person has a lower opinion of someone else cause of something they heard about them. That's it. The specifics don't matter.

As well as the secrets, I'd like to understand what a "bonding moment" is or what triggers it.

The bonding moment modifier is given when two people have a particularly interesting interaction that makes them like each other more. For example, you can get it in the skinny dipping scene.

You are actually missing something. The PI you can hire to do background checks and spy on people. Very useful to use on city commissioners to figure out who is a good target for bribing and so on. When you text him, you have an option for him to come see you and then you can hire him and give him a name of someone you want info on.

 

[Not YrBroom]

At a certain point the library seems to run out of everything but sex books. I have all those skills maxed, and I'd like to be able to raise things like fighting or massage.

 

[Magister Crudi]

Just know she won't very good at her job

She's OK, especially for a 53 year old.

Unless you mean her shrink job, which is a bit dubious in the context of her incest obsession (and which I'm not responsible for). But hey, it's not unusual for shrinks to be crazier than their patients, especially if you consider narcissism and megalomania mental illnesses. Doesn't seem to impair their careers much.

 

[Magister Crudi]

And let's face it, some things are better learned through experience.

BTW, beating up mobsters doesn't seem to develop your fighting skills. I haven't done enough work at the club to know if you can develop service or other skills that way.

 

[Cartageno]

He's referring to photos others take of you. Those end up on the person who took the photo own collection. If you are seeing photos other take appear in your own collection that's a bug and I'll need more info.

So I did some extensive mingling and can confirm that I seem to have been wrong about this and everything is as you said: selfies I take go to my collection, selfies others take with me may or may not end up in the general feed one day.

 

[Magister Crudi]

Thanks for that. I didn't know and the PI is one of my girlfriends. She don't tell me nuffin'.

BTW, according to her the spy jobs "reveal more data points than backgroud checks". I've really gotta spend some time teaching that girl to spell.

 

[TotalFluke]

The latest update has been posted. Links at the top of the thread. This is actually now the official game release 1.0 as this accomplishes most of my initial goals for the game. It doesn't mean that development is over, there's still a lot of work to do and I'll keep posting updates monthly updates.

There's also a new image pack available, called Fiona. This may be the last one for a while. I may revisit some of the older packs to raise their quality to be comparable to the latest ones.

This version includes achievements. Note that when loading a save game, some achievements may be awarded based on what you did previously in that game. But most achievements will require you to actually achieve them with this version of the game. Note also, that some achievements will not be achievable if you are too advanced in the game and will require starting a new game to get them. (Achievements don't matter and don't affect game play in any way, but some people like to have specific goals and this serves that purpose).

And finally this version has support for mods. So anyone that actually wants to get in there and create content can do so now. There's documentation on how to do that in the mods folder.

I appreciate you dropping the game here and have to say I've been really enjoying it over the last few months. That being said, I did have a few questions regarding some things:

1. Is there any way to change a characters image set? It seems that they're chosen at random at game start every time (for example family)

2. Can you make it more obvious (or explain how to tell based on the in-game numbers) what your current character physical traits are in game? I cant tell if I have fair hair, if I'm considered "fit", whether I count as younger or older, or if my ass is big or not. Makes it hard to influence others into liking traits to make me more attractive to them.

3. Is there a console command (or any other way) to disable the time moving forward mechanic when traveling to different locations? I get the challenge from a gameplay perspective, but sometimes it sucks to deal with when trying to hunt someone down

(1) Well, in theory you could rename files, not recommended though, since files transport a bit of information. In game no.

(2)


Most of the info you are looking for is in this part of the character window. "Fit" is a value 0-100, the higher the more fit you are. "Big ass" is decided by the "Hips" value.

You are "younger" or "older" based on your age in respect to the character, so if you are 27, you want the 31 yo to like younger people and the 18 yo to like older people.

Hair and eye color are spelled out on the right directly. "Med" means medium, so not affected by either the dark nor the light bonuses. Otherwise it would spell out "dark" etc. "Short" after hair should be self explanatory.

Height: 6-1 is average, anything above that is tall, anything below is short. However, when you create a character and compare the values, you will see that there are only three (I think 5-10, 6-1, 6-4), the highest being "tall" and the smallest being "short".

So with this character I want girls to like fit guys with a big ass and short hair. I don't care about their eye color, hair color or height preferences.

(3) There isn't, however you can save scum. Save the game, go to the park. She's not there? Reload, go to university (entering and leaving library are not an action). And if necessary reload again. Or you could text her and know where she is from the start.

Also, four "non actions" (like sending texts to girls, walking through your club, etc.) will move time forward, however this will not be saved, so if you save after three walks, then go somewhere else and time moves forward, then reload the save you can start the counter anew.

Appreciate the detailed reply. IKind of figured those answers for the first and last questions. Answering my second question definitely helps a ton, kudos to you.
