its the result of working in customer service and being surrounded by morons all-day who keep asking the same stupid questions over and over.
We're on a porn site, you think we get invited to parties?

This was how I lost my clothes in game and couldn`t re-buy them too.
Hopefully when new stable release comes out this issue will be resolved.

Thanks Sam for taking the time and effort to reply to myself and all the other people on here, as it`s great to see how you engage with everyone and even more well done how you take feedback well without getting defensive and thinking it`s att on yourself.

Just a friendly suggestion, please consider using the "spoiler" function on that giant text wall of yours.

Happy to use it but don`t know how. Where can learn to do it please?
edit: Went found a spoiler alert to copy paste from different forum

For future info, when you're making a post look at the top bar where you can bold, underline, exc. Just to the right of the smilies should be three dots, click on that and there's a menu of things you can insert.

Thanks for information, as my bad hadn`t explored all the icons/buttons on the top bar where one types a post.
That method sure is faster and easier than trying copy paste quotes to get the right code text.

This actually just gave me an idea.I haven't played 2.96, I'm waiting for 3.0, but it sounds like once you meet the prerequisites for a tag it is automatically activated and the consequences are yours to deal with whether you're into the kink or not.
Sam_Tail has talked about this matter a little bit. They seem to want to make it so that if a player wants to remove a tag, there must be a sensible in-game solution. So, if the MC becomes baby crazy, how would she become not baby crazy? One way is to have too many babies. But how many babies is too many? Everyone is different.
I also disagree with how the activation of tags is handled, if my understanding is correct. A woman can give lots of blowjobs, but still hate giving them.
Possible solution: When the MC qualifies for a tag, it's simply unlocked in the character menu, but not activated. It's then up to the player choose whether or not to activate it. This would aid the player in determining what content they want to see without breaking the 4th wall. Whether or not it's permanently on, toggle-able, or if an effect or story event can force change/remove it, I would leave up to Sam_Tail.

hm, interesting well one way it could be done in-game is to have it decay over time similar to fitness and intelligence.

also instead of counting every creampie only count the requested ones. maybe even go as far as counting forced once as a negative. on a safe day, it's like +5 on a risky day +10 and if it is forced -5/-10. and having a baby could reduce it by a lot like -50.
Decay lends itself better to gradient stats, not tags/perks that are either on or off depending on whether or not if the conditions have been met. It's much more organic, but it could require Sam_Tail to redo all the work they've already done for perks, and to then decide which ones will be gradient stats and which ones will be binary, if any at all (and then everyone's going to argue with Sam_Tail with why it's wrong
).Decay is/was treated a little weird in this game. Dunno about v0.3.0. But in previous builds, not only will a stat decay with time, but it can also be reduced via training the stat itself as a "critical fail." This is/was deliberate to the game's design. I'm not fond of using RNG in this way, and I have mentioned it to Sam_Tail in the past, so I'm not looking to revisit that discussion. What needed to be said has already been said.
Having to determine the values of each instance of an action, and the conditions it's under, would definitely be a ton more work in both coding and game balancing. And probably prone to lots of bugs.

as far as I know already number based. +75 triggers the baby crazy perk while -75 triggers the opposite.Decay lends itself better to gradient stats, not tags/perks that are either on or off depending on whether or not if the conditions have been met.

It is not really meant to be obvious. It is mostly meant to make it so that when you start the game there is a bit of a natural build up with progression. A male start with -200 body confidence is not going to be working first day in the pub and bending over in the toilets. It sort of acts a bit like a timer to make some of the more slutty stuff delayed a bit so things feel a bit more natural.
Of course if you pick an origin with the slut perk then none of that matters anymore and only really effects more default or traditional starts.
The samdbox allows you to grind those stats back up, and with the more forgiving decay I hope it turns out to have a better feel overall now.
I guess it depends on how you play. In my testing while I do trigger the bad events early, by the time the harsh ones would roll around I would have already got to the level to reject them. Though I suppose if you walk around the school a lot looking to trigger the events then you will activate the harsh events much earlier with have greater punishments.
I am leaning towards a more story based progression instead of the menu to pick photoshoots. Much like a continuation of the introduction line. But we will see.
It have and is something I will probably do. But something I am finding with writing one of the new characters is that if something does X now and Y another time, it confuses things a lot.
This reply is about baby crazy generally.
As it is in the current build, the counter goes up or down based on the choice Sammy makes and not the end result. So asking for a pullout but the guy ignores and cums inside anyway will still reduce preg_desire.
Also with the addition of morning after and abortion pills, it's easy to keep it low if you want. Morning after pills off the top of my head reduces preg_desire by 30 and abortion reduces it to it's lowest possible. If as a player you don't want to get pregnant, you will no doubt be making use of these items and quickly get the child free perk.
It's possible for "creampie lover" to counteract the effects of "childfree" so you can not want a baby but still ask the guy to cum inside and use morning after pills as a contraceptive.
Sam could the male origin make future lesbian content more easily accessible (less inib + arousal needed) and the mc keep it after she's completely adapted to her body? It keeps a benefit of their origin while it not being too much an advantage and it'll be a nice touch.
Currently there is one full lesbian chain/character and it doesn't require much in the way of checks. Lesbian stuff in this game will be portrayed slightly different than hetro encounters as they will always be with named characters you are friendly with. Since no risk of pregnancy while already being friendly with the character, it will mostly be about following the story and making the choices you want.
