Yeah, i picked Gamine as a test, and the sudden 180 in personality made it a good example, really. Will the clothing restrictions make their way back into the game as a toggleable option? I kind of liked having them linked with Sammy's confidence, though i can understand it's not for everyone. Didn't know Alcoholic could be lost, must have missed her grabbing a beer from her purse every once in a while i guess.Some perk combinations can be a little iffy, but I don't want to restrict them too much. You picked the Gamine origin for your character which is basically a street whore origin. Removing the whore perk then kind of defeats the purpose of the origin.
Commando (and other perks) do need a way to be removed. I will be looking into this soon.
Smoke right now doesn't do anything and is only gained from the Gamine origin. I'll do something with it eventually. Alcoholic can be removed by not drinking, but Sammy is unlikely to ever do that so...
The clothing restrictions were removed because players didn't understand it so I had to heavily simplify it. Instead of restricting what you wear now, I made it so you can wear what you want and will instead trigger events that make you suffer the consequences of making bad choices. Not all events are in yet though so it might seem like you have free reign, but that will change.
Small heads up here, you can actually wear underwear at work with the Commando perk. You'd just have to buy them when the game gives you the option to and if you do, you go straight into your shifts wearing underwear. It's the only method to get around the perk that i could see.If you had the commando perk then you would have no pants to sell. But it mostly comes down to your confidence if you agree to sell because Sammy knows she is in a skirt and will be working flashing her arse.
I thought manually doing it is what you've done with the factory mission where you get one outfit that you cant change.What you mention is manually doing it.
You technically can do that if you a) make Sammy's body layer completely transparent b) calculate opacity of the resulting image at required areas. You'd only need to have different predefined areas for different breast sizes and bra/no bra. You will also be unable to account for areola slips, lewd underwear etc.I can't just raytrace and check if nipples are showing. I also can't just check if they are transparent because some clothes have transparent sleeves or other bits that do not expose the player. So I have to add in for every piece of clothing weather making that part transparent will reveal Sammys breasts.
I think the main problem of Newlife (in relation to clothes) is not that there are too many stats. Its that a) there are actually too few stats and too many flags, lots of flags could just be replaced with one stat of different values b) events usually care only for 1-2 stat thresholds so once you minmaxed outfit for them theres no point fiddling with clothes and you wear that one outfit entire game. The other problems are offtopic.Also funny you mention newlife because it is an example of what I am aiming to avoid. It has so many stats to the point that most of them become pointless and seriously under utilised. It also increases the workload when you have to factor in 30 stats as opposed to 5 while giving pretty much the same result. There are solutions for fixing the allure stats that do not involve throwing in more stats, I just didn't have time to do it for this release.
Not to be that guy, but why exactly are you giving advice? Where's your successfully released porn game?Anyway I was just trying to give advice, sorry if my expectations were divorced from your actual plans.
And why would he need one? Would it make him more or less correct? That's fallacious thinking.Not to be that guy, but why exactly are you giving advice? Where's your successfully released porn game?
Glad to hear that. It's weird that getting cum inside five times in total over the course of her life permanently reprograms her to become obsessed with trying to get pregnant... and that you can simultaneously have the buttslut trait and the 'will never ask for anal' trait.Commando (and other perks) do need a way to be removed. I will be looking into this soon.
Automatically would be something along the lines of firing a ray, checking if it is able to hit the nipple art assets, and if so, doing something.I thought manually doing it is what you've done with the factory mission where you get one outfit that you cant change.
Basically how it is now. Clothes have specific tags that say if cleavage is shown, the belly, if it's skin tight, if nipples poke through and so on. Allure is added based on that. I don't add arbitrary amounts to each item.I could see merit in reworking the allure system so instead of each item having a own numerical value it analyzes your overall outfit (is nipple showing? if not, is areola showing? if not, is underboob showing? if not, is cleavage showing? if not, is shoulder showing? and so forth to determine the total degree of sluttiness/prudishness), but that would be a lot of work for the dev that could be spent on new scenes, characters, locations, quests...
There is no peephole gangbang. Only sex with the peeper or when caught by someone else. The Haven gangbang scenes are with the guards or through the prison ending.How do you trigger the peephole gang bang scene at haven? I've tried having low confidence, and drunk but it doesn't work. Just the repeatable scene with the peeper. Is there a certain perk for it?
Not in the main game section yet. The closest thing is the body writing from various events (losing in challenge games vs the soccer boys and the bullies IIRC). You can also get a marker from shops to do them yourself.How do you get all the tattoos at haven? Or in general?
Seems like some perks sets a floor for some stats like fitness can't decrease below 20 no matter what you do. Tho I think it would be neat that such feats stack (tho made them lower individually for balance reasons).I played it far back when it had few features, like the game idea but there was not much to play with. Now i started the game again and running on the most vexing issues.
- Player dont have much control over adult interaction. AK in bus or in school it randomly sayis "player rejects advances". SHoulnt be player in control and decide how far it will be ready to go or have some important influnce them. On some cases it is totally understandable if you are drunk you cant control much. If you are no fit abuser can take advantage of player. If you are not smart you dont pass some things. But if NPC initiates adult interaction, player should decide how to answer to this.
- Another issue what i found is arbitral stats decrease when day is over. Stats decrease on willpower, Fitness, and intelligence. And it is almost impossible to keep them up. Basically, you spend every moment in school even on weekends. And have no time for scavenging or other stuff. I think this is too much. to maintenance form. It should check only once in week. And there should be minimum effort go to maintenance stats. Maybe like 5 action on fitness and 5 action in intelligence to keep it on level, if you do more you increase your stats. Maintaning a willpower is most vexing. Random eent in bus or day swicth can decrease willpower of 6 points and it is impossible to make back with even day. asically with save scummin i get my willpower to 70 and fitness and intelligence to 80, but if i want to maintain them need to work hard everyday and have no time for other things.
Dont wish to use ingame cheats also couse they increase stats basically 10 points at time and i dont want to add more points than i lost daily.
One of the big themes of the game is gradually becoming corrupted by the dystopian world and the job you're doing; that would be lost completely if the protagonist started out willing to do anything and everything with anyone. You get more options to agree to sex after you've had sex more, but there are also background traits you can pick to speed through the process if you prefer. For prostitution specifically, one thing that messes a lot of people up is that your current money plays a big factor (Sammy has the option to do lewd things for money even if she wouldn't do them ordinarily as long as she's broke and desperate, but if you grind up a bunch of cash or use cheats she feels too comfortable to be pushed that way).

For a life-sim, it makes sense that you would need to continue exercising and studying to maintain high stats instead of just maxxing them out once and then never going to school or running again. I think you do have some degree of control though; I think that getting drunk every night increases the rate that Int drops relative to how it would act if you stay sober, for example. But if you want to maintain things with cheats, I'm pretty sure that the thresholds for where the numbers affect things are the same as where the colors on the top bar icons change, so if for example you want to keep peak physical fitness anywhere in the 80-100 range is identical and you can just add ten points every time it drops to 79 or less to effectively keep up with the rate of decay.
