VN Ren'Py STWA: Unbroken [Book 1 Steam] [STWAdev]

Nah. I think Ines and VI were plotting an all-girl punk band.

Your forgetting their drummer Amrit and their manager Els.

Band Name? Your Mom.

Here's a little look at what we worked on during the art stream on Sat. This really is a fun scene to work on because I finally get to mess around and embrace the inherent silliness of Professional wrestling. So excited for people to see it in it's final glory.

ah man, I want to see the black outfit too, I chose that in my playthrough (on a side note, Kana is seriously buff )

Was thinking the same thing, I chose the black outfit. Kana's in a good position, though, in that with her skin tone both work really well. Black goes well with pretty much anything, but the white is a great contrast.

Here's a quick mod that I made that adds a scoreboard to keep track of variables. Just drop the RPY file in the "game" folder and open the game. It displays at the top of the screen and can be toggled off with the backtick key.

For the MC, F and H are your foot/heel status and I is your injuries.
For McNab, R is rivalry.
For Amrit, C is confidence.
For Vi, F is family, A is acceptance, G is grief.
For Rena, FWB is some variable that isn't used yet.
For Kana, I is injuries.
For Els, T is trust and S is secrecy.
For Ines, P is protectiveness.
Otherwise, F is friendship, L is love, and Y is yuri.

PS. I realized after completing this that the cheat mod has something very similar built in, but decided to post this, in case anyone wants it.

There are also two new Ines-specific variables that were added in the Mallorca update: inessubmission and inesselfreliance. These appear to be scores that are increasing/decreasing just like the others. I'm not sure how important they will be of course, but I thought I'd mention them in case you wanted to include them as well.

Anyways, thanks for the handy scoreboard-at-a-glance! There really are an incredible amount of choices and scores being tracked in this game.

Boy, those would be a tough call to interpret so far. On the one hand, I want her to be a strong, capable independant-minded woman. On the other.. I want her to submit and become a happy little housefrau.

All she needs is a french maid outfit and we good.

not a chance in a million years that she'd wear that. unless she'd lose some bet and mc would want that.

Okay, I updated the scoreboard with the two new variables. I is for independence and S for submission. I also set default values for all these variables--something the game's developer really should have done.

1st mc gets good laugh and then some1 else gets good laughs as his bed got occupied and filled with roses.

In defense of the dev, from what I see of the code for Unbroken, it does properly initialize any new variables. However, it does so only when they are added in a new chapter/update. This works just fine for how the game itself needs to use them, but unfortunately it doesn't support mods that will be trying to display those values right from the first scene of the game. This is really not the dev's fault, because even if they were to duplicate those variable init lines at the start of the game, that still doesn't fix a save from chapter 2 – for example – that a person loads with the mod active.

I'm not that familiar with Python, but like most programming languages, it appears to have a way to check for null (none) values, which is what you probably used to get around this problem, but I thought I'd pass it along for anyone else who might be curious (Note: this is untested code, found from a quick search, so use at your own risk).

if my_variable is not None:
    # execute some code

Declaring global variables at random points within the code is very bad form and really should be fixed. At the very least, global variables should be declared at the start and defined later, though I recommend giving the variables a default value (not relevant to Python, since you can't declare without defining). It is normal to declare, define, and (if the language requires it) delete local variables as needed.

if my_variable is not None:
    # execute some code

This gives you a variable undefined error. You have to use a try/except/else block:

try: my_variable
except: my_variable = 0
else: print("Variable exists with value: "+str(my_variable))

Ren'Py has a built-in command called "default" that does this for you.

default my_variable = 0

is equivalent to

init 100 python:
    try: my_variable
    except: my_variable = 0

And, it can be important to note that delayed init, since most init blocks will be run before the default command.

As promised here's a little render that I would wanted to get out out for patron milestone, starring the two most popular Unbroken girls.
As of writing 3089 renders are posed, 2992 rendered. Slow scene is slow. What I'm trying to decide on if it'll be worth to just focus on posing this week and knock out the rest of the stills and then focus on actually rendering as I tap away at other things, or to stay the current course. The question just is what actually will save time in the long run.
Animations are mostly just waiting for time to move to active production again. Base scenes are set, characters ready to go and choreography planned. Once the render situation is solved we're onto these.
Nothing else happening at the moment, just trying to get, my first build ready and assembled. chipping away as best I can.
As always thank you so much for the support, I hope you have a lovely rest of the week.
Sláinte!

girls: mc, no matter if you are ready or since we are coming.
