I assume that Renpy is based on Python, running a specified search function for that line should lead them to it. They'd have to recompile the files maybe? I'm only starting to learn programming less than a month ago.

Renpy is officially written Ren'py and py is because python files are .py. Rather than saying the script is able to call python, it's more like python with extensions to make it simple to handle sprites, text and other VN specific stuff. This means you can become quite creative with custom code if you really want to.

No, you don't compile python after making changes because python is an interpreted language rather than a compiled one. It means python code can be executed from source. It is technically possible to compile python and make .pyc files, but depending on what you are doing, that might not be a common approach. Not sure what Renpy defaults are in that regard. The reason why you can't just open the script files is that Renpy encrypts the files by default when building a release zip. You are supposed to play the game and explore it from within the game, not snoop around in the files to avoid exploring the game itself. This isn't Headmaster specific, but rather the standard approach for more or less all visual novel engines.

The reason why some programming languages needs to be compiled while others don't is it's easier to develop with something, which doesn't require a compiler. However a compiler will optimize the code, so it will execute faster. Renpy is using the slow execution approach because it is "fast enough", but you wouldn't want a first person shooter coded this way as that would result in abysmal framerates.

While I can say a whole lot more on this topic, I won't as it will just derail the thread. This gives a brief intro and if anybody wants to learn more, then go read programming websites and/or Renpy's own documentation, which is actually fairly good.

If I were to report a misspelling, do they go back through to fix it? I don't know if that's something they can just fix, I don't do coding/programming/etc. It doesn't break the game, my brain just tweaks a bit when I notice them

It's general possible and yeah, the dev and his staff general do it, but only for the next version of the game. But try to post only mistakes, that are really in the last version of the game, as bug hunting is still time consuming. Some people do even decompile the source files with "unren" and look for the file and the line of code in the original files, where the misspelling happens and post this together with the misspelling. This saves the dev and his staff also quite some time. It is also better to post misspellings in the game's official discord in the bug-category, The dev and his staff might not always be around here at f95.

The REAL best girl is Charlotte, of course. Everyone else is just vying for second place.;)

Her pussy doesn't smoke dude. Man up.

Also, Debbie is probably the best because she's a lesbian so it will just make it all that much naughtier if we ever get to bang her. Plus think of the threesome possibilities...

Faye and Liz are super cute. Of course they get very little attention.

Who are we kidding it will never happen at this rate, just 10 more years of random features and side girls being added and we still won't have bang routes or primary systems up and running for the main chicks.

Has anyone encountered an issue/bug with Rachel's quest? I'm meant to punish her but was told in a hint that I have to change a rule at the council meeting first to raise her level any further.
But I have only one rule available and it's not the right one.
And also the only rule available I'm unable to change it because it requires that the student council president quest needs to be finished before I can put the new rule up to vote.
Unfortunately I can't finish the president's quest without completing Rachel's quest.
Do I need to start a new save or am I missing something?

The quests in this game aren't always laid out in the best order. Just work on other stuff and it should let you eventually. Like early on you get a bunch of quests gated behind Debbie becoming a Prefect before you even start leveling her.

Does someone have a save to share? I had to format my PC and lost all mine and I honestly do not want to replay everything.
