For many games, there are so many variables, options, statuses, etc., that it would be impossible to do that without just giving a generic save that may not have everything you want in it, or giving 20 saves to accomodate all the available pathways... it would just become a logistical nightmare. This game may not be quite in that bracket, but there are still scores to consider and some choices that will determine some of what you continue seeing later in the game, etc.Yeah tried that. The issue is it completely kills the desire to continue. You progress so far for so long and then you decide to pick it back up you remember and go, yeah I dont want to waste time doing all that over again.
Most normal games there's a reason for replay, but porn games not so much. Which is why a save from the last point when a dev breaks the save would be great in combo with the ability to rename the character.
"Sorry I had to break everything and your saves dont work but dont worry heres a full save. all you have to do is change the name and start enjoying the new content."
Sounds better, no?
You can hire one of the girls as maid ...I have an issue with "maid for punishment"
I continue to patrol but I never get any interraction with hariett.
do you know if there are any solution?
Have you had the patrol events with Charlotte? There are two where she is smoking, and you might need to get both of them - I think it's the second one that shows Harriet selling smokes to Charlotte.This is the mission description

Plus, it is a beta. Never judge an update by its beta. (And never delete/overwrite your old save when you got a save from a beta version because that may be borked.) If you have FOSO (Fear of starting over), avoid anything beta or similar completely.For many games, there are so many variables, options, statuses, etc., that it would be impossible to do that without just giving a generic save that may not have everything you want in it, or giving 20 saves to accomodate all the available pathways... it would just become a logistical nightmare.

Also, this is just a generalisation, anyway, right? All the message here said was that due to a Ren'Py change/issue, auto saves won't work, but manual/quick saves still will. So not the dev breaking the save at all, and also no problem to actually be worried about here, unless you only use auto saves (which is surely not something people actually do, is it?).
There are surely only two reasons to be playing the beta anyway - testing for the developers, and impatience. The latter isn't a good reason.Plus, it is a beta. Never judge an update by its beta.

Don't doubt people in general. If you can do something it will be done if your sample size is big enough. Therefore, I'm pretty sure, some people only use autosave.(which is surely not something people actually do, is it?)
If the development through all of the game project is linear - then yes. Unfortunately like with the "endangered species" campaign, the dev has shown that it isn't that easy.Most normal games there's a reason for replay, but porn games not so much. Which is why a save from the last point when a dev breaks the save would be great in combo with the ability to rename the character.
And this. The Headmaster isn't THAT much convoluted in terms of paths the player can take (unlike some other games), but there is some field for the the player to maneuver through choices, decisions and the order of things (unless specifically gated by the dev).For many games, there are so many variables, options, statuses, etc., that it would be impossible to do that without just giving a generic save that may not have everything you want in it, or giving 20 saves to accomodate all the available pathways... it would just become a logistical nightmare.

100%. Normally, for the classic development process you wouldn't be playing the game unless you are part of the dev team or contracted to test it (for monetary gain or not). Development process where you release unfinished product in sequential patches to give incentive to the players to pay you before the game is finished is aimed for those who don't have money and want to make a game (and live off of that). All the backers are beta testers (and if its patches are released for $0 later on, the casual "freeloader" who DL'ed it for free also is such a beta tester) and that's it. If you want the finished product without bugs, unfinished content, repeatedly returning and playing it over and over due to content embedded into earlier parts than the canonically most recent events...Plus, it is a beta.

I'm always watchingDoubt they check for bug reports here but I had to start a new save for this version and I've found a few things from older content that seems broken now. The porn watching during paperwork doesn't work and watching tv with the students at night is also broken. Guess that's what I get for playing the beta version, it's just surprising that whatever they added would fuck this older stuff up.
Keep in mind (and as already mentioned earlier) that this is a beta. So, by definition, bugs are to be expected in your playthrough.
List of known bugs as of today:
- Automatic saves may not be working anymore (due to ren’py 8.2 version). Use Quick save and regular saves to avoid any issue.
- Error when watching Celebrity Love Archipelago. Ignoring the errors allow to continue but it is recommended to wait for the next release to watch the TV show.
- When using a save from the last version (all content completed) and press skip, an error message will show. The error can just be ignored.
Thanks for the response!I'm always watching
Noted for the porn watching, thanks.
For the TV show, please refer to my message:
Same here. Anyone got the latest mac version?Mac heroes, haalp! Anyone have the update?
