Don't we do that with kids? I'm pretty sure she's closer to being one, at this point.

Why does the protag get so obsessed with treating Artemisia like she's an extremely sheltered kid? He keeps going 'What?! You've never done x before?', my dude, she's a machine and was a car not too long ago. Why would an AI give a flying fuck about seeing what the kitchen looks like and why does he think she'd care?

He does have some blind spots in his logic sometimes. "You've never seen the academy bathroom?" "No. It doesn't have an on-ramp." He also seems pretty oblivious to the fact that at present she is a terrifying mechanical endoskeleton and there is a very real possibility that if Riley just ran into her while she was trying to brush her teeth she might throw her through a couple of load-bearing walls before she had a chance to explain herself.

Not to be too much about it, but there is no chance that Valentina doesn't already know that robot Artemesia is clanking around. She doesn't seem bothered by it. Maybe the other girls should get the benefit of the doubt. Artemesia's reasons for giving them plausible deniability are sound but I wouldn't be surprised if it came to light that she has other reasons for the secrecy.

There's also the whole thing that, if the old japanese guy who seems to make most of the tech for supers/the academy finds out about Artemis fowl, she'll be scrapped and our protag jailed for grand larceny.

Not if MC jails him first.

I'd like to see that happen just for the entire second half of the game becoming a courtroom drama delving into who was really responsible for stealing the robot as it became a sentient being that walked away on its own. It would be further complicated by his android daughter sitting in the gallery watching the case and hearing about how when it is all said and done she is nothing more than her father's property. I think that Artemesia is worried that she'll be scrapped because it is the logical and rational thing to do when faced with a rogue AI in a killer robot body. She doesn't yet understand the human factor or how sentimental and squishy we can be. Look at the dumpster fire discourse over what is happening with the Replika chatbot. It is like an episode of dark mirror come to life.

Yeah, we can be sentimental. We can also be paranoid of the unknown, especially when it comes to something like a literal rogue AI which the general public would probably associate with skynet-like consequences. She's also techically the good doctor/professor's property, both before the protag corrupted her systems and after so I don't think she'd be getting tried as a person.
Also, his daughter is an android?

Yeah, got the same error. You are using the shaddymod, am i right? the mod hasnt been updated to 1.551 yet, if you save the game, use the unmodded version and load your save there it will work!

Does someone know how to trigger the repeatable "pet play" that is in the changelog? I cant find it...

Ah, I suspected it might be something like that. I'll try that, thanks!

Same here, looking for newest Shaddy to correct it.

attaching traceback.txt is more helpful than posting error itself. try re-dl and re-extracting with latest 7zip.
