how the hell do i get hired at the bank? i have searched this thread, and people keep saying to do this sequence:

  • ask franciska for a job
  • get rejected
  • touch franciska's butt after you get rejected
  • fight the security guard and win
  • ask franciska for a job again
  • she will recommend you to bridjet for the job and you will get hired
however, if i ask franciska for a job the first time, get rejected, touch her butt, and beat up the security guard, the next time i speak to her the dialogue option to ask for a job again simply does not appear.

Because you are constantly loading a save that contains the old data.
Let the game time pass(A couple of gaming days is enough). The game itself will restore everything as needed (even if you break something), and pay attention to the stats.
Male characters usually react to your reputation + hygiene and the actual state of the character (alcohol or drug intoxication).
Female characters react to everything the same, only in intimate moments they look at your "Handsome" parameter

Very disappointing time skip option. Sometimes it skips 15 minutes and sometimes it skips 35 minutes. It's pretty random. What this game needs is containing options to skip by 1 hour,3 hours,6 hours etc. I've found a set of lines in script.rpy where the time skipping functions are located. The problem is how it should be changed to be able to skip by constant amount of period. The codes are here :

label skip_event:
$ res_drugs = renpy.random.randint(5,15)
$ res_drunk = renpy.random.randint(5,15)
if statsdrugs.Drugs >= res_drugs:
$ res_time_loc_hour = renpy.random.randint(1,3)
$ res_time_loc_min = renpy.random.randint(1,59)
scene black
scene allblack with dissolve
$ text_bought ="{color=#51ff00}{font=Gagalin-Regular.otf}Skipping time...{/font}{/color}"

show screen Text_Buy with dissolve
$ renpy.pause(0.5, hard=True)
$ timeparametrs.AddTime(res_time_loc, res_time_loc_hour)
scene black with dissolve
hide screen Text_Buy with dissolve
$ time_check()
window hide
jump reload_game
elif statsdrunk.Drunk >= res_drunk:

$ res_time_loc_min = renpy.random.randint(30,45)
scene black
scene allblack with dissolve
$ text_bought ="{color=#51ff00}{font=Gagalin-Regular.otf}Skipping time...{/font}{/color}"

show screen Text_Buy with dissolve
$ renpy.pause(0.5, hard=True)
$ timeparametrs.AddTime(res_time_loc, 0)
scene black with dissolve
hide screen Text_Buy with dissolve
$ time_check()
window hide
jump reload_game
elif True:
$ res_time_loc = renpy.random.randint(5,15)
scene black
scene allblack with dissolve
$ text_bought ="{color=#51ff00}{font=Gagalin-Regular.otf}Skipping time...{/font}{/color}"

show screen Text_Buy with dissolve
$ renpy.pause(0.5, hard=True)
$ timeparametrs.AddTime(res_time_loc, 0)
scene black with dissolve
hide screen Text_Buy with dissolve
$ time_check()
window hide
jump reload_game

should I change the range in randint()? such as if I always want to skip by 1 hour it should look like this randint(60,60) where it says res_time_loc_min.

You're just not familiar with the game's mechanics.
Use alcohol or drugs.
You will be able to skip time very quickly.
Use sobering pills to get back to normal.
Do not abuse this because the game has many hidden parameters that negatively affect the fate of the character.
Do not mix alcohol with sleeping pills - this can kill the character. Like many other things.

In order to change these parameters, you need to know the loading data well.
Incorrect timing can break the core game loop + some mechanics.

You can play with these values and yes it will work, but don’t be surprised when after some time you have timing bugs in different mechanics for all the characters in the game.

I understand but are you willing to add time skip option having constant change in hours or minutes?

For what?
If there are options for every taste.
You can skip an entire game day in a couple of clicks.
Drugs will help you miss time a lotev
alcohol - a little weaker
erything is like in life
In the game you can skip entire weeks as long as you want in a couple of clicks.

Hi listen dev

For now, it is not a problem to start the game from the beginning, but in the future, if the story of the game goes too far, starting the game again will be a disaster. I hope this save problem will be fixed in the future, thanks

Hi!
I discussed this problem many times with fans, and I explained why I was delaying this moment. After a couple of updates, all your saves will work as it should! I promise. But now we need to grit our teeth and be patient. Considering how much the game changes from update to update. It's worth it.
