No, but it's the main thread for discussion and information regarding the game, and currently that is being buried behind hundreds of pages of pointless bickering. I posted a fix for a bug that was being reported by a lot of people a little while back and it got swept by the "NO U" spam in like 15 seconds.

You wanna bump your heads in a circular arguement just use the fucking PM feature, it's there for a reason.
First post specifically says not to ask for Walkthrough help here. Go to the walkthrough thread instead.

If this has already been posted and I got lost in the last couple of pages, I'm sorry.

But is anyone else having trouble delivering pizzas in the new update? I deliver the pizzas and get paid by Tony, but the money does not show up in my total. It stays the same.

Also, Jenny's pregnancy does not seem to be progressing. Is that as far as the content this update?

Could you kindly point out to me where in the blazes did i say that the thread should be used for walkthrough questions? Straw man fallacy much?

It's perfectly fine to discuss every single point being debated here because that's one of the reason this threads exists, but this is a perfect example of how infuriatlingly often it devolves into petty personal arguements that do little else than clutter the place. Trying to find any relevant piece of information here is like looking for a needle on a haystack.

18.0 has a few bugs, and since I stopped being a patreon I cannot post them to My Kompas site. So far, the game is somehow missing, the night scene of the treehouse location, and this just happened:missing, coin1, so essentially MC cannot work the odd jobs for money Screen shot 2019-05-03 at 12.42.09 PM.png

If you encounter some bugs just wait for the hotfix release, the dev said it SHOULD BE out today

Swear on your mother or I won't believe it.
Go check the discord : "HOTFIX is almost ready, will try and release tomorrow (getting bit late, sorry for those waiting on the public links)! In other news, I created the tasks for 18.5 so our new progress bar is up and running (will have tasks closing soon when we release the hotfix)!"

He said that some minutes past midnight though, so it could be tomorrow at the latest. And judging by his local time, he lives in Canada so it also depends where you guys live.

Thank you for such a well written view on the engine itself. I appreciate this a lot as it helps understand things as a whole. I don't know why SS has as many issues as it does and I do hope they figure out why it's so troublesome.

Does Ren'py have multiple versions? Is it possible that they're using an older, more archaic version than newer ones with newer features? Like Ren'py V1 that's very basic while the newest is Ren'py V7 with a lot of built in features for example?
It has multiple versions but the few changes that are made are not that significant.

See, Renpy is basically an accessible language for people with no programming experience to be able to create Visual Novels. The simplicity comes at a price: when you want to expand the scope of your game, you have to start writing more and more redundant code because the language does not give you easy solutions to complex things (that's not the intention).

But Renpy is based on Python and you can use this language to create more complex functions that will help your code become more optimized and practical to use in complex situations. I believe that is the case of the Summertime Saga. The problem, in my view, is that some programmer made a mistake early in the process and the game began to be built on a base that is not that good. This results in hundreds of bugs per update and players being unable to use basic functions such as loading old games, rollback text, etc.

But you see, I'm guessing this, because I don't read the STS code. I formed this opinion based on playing one version of the game (0.17 I think), not analyzing the code. Anyway, in my opinion, one of the strangest things in the Summertime Saga is that, except for the minigames, there is really nothing in the game that would justify a very intense modification of Renpy. Much of the gameplay can be easily recreated using the basic functions of Renpy without the programmer having to spend much time. It's not as if an intense optimization was crucial to creating a game with the same style as the Summertime Saga in Renpy. That's why I think someone tried at some point to reinvent the wheel and ended up doing a monumental shit.

I meant to respond to a guy a post or two above you, apologies. He wanted to use the thread for walkthrough stuff.

Seriously dude... there are personal opinions with valid arguments.. yours is not amongs them.. you are VERY biased.. no matter if DC released the most shitiesst update of all games, you would still defend him. This post is proof of it xD
No one can make a valid argument as far what people like. So far almost no one even made a solid opinion as to why they disliked it and how it was worse or better than the other updates.
Saying dumb nonsense like UGHHHHHH SO DUM XDDD BAD UPDATE XDDD doesn't count for much. It's not constructive and nothing can be made from it to further the discussion. Yet it's what people mostly say here

What do you mean nobody has a solid opinion? This update is riddled with bugs, short, not worth the six months it took to deliver and doesn't add anything to Jenny as a character. Those seem like pretty solid criticisms to me. What do you want people to do then? Just pretend everything was great? Nah my dude this update was straight :poop::poop::poop:
