I think that's down to whatever mod that is you're using.
It's not a mod, you've named the player character 'Player'.
define p = Character("Player", image="player", color = "#7f7f7f" )
The way I would fix this is to change the p character's name when the player sets their name:
Python:
    python:
        pname = renpy.input("Enter your character's first name:", length=32, default=pname)
        pname = pname.strip()
        pname = pname.title()

        if not pname:
            pname = "Steve"
       
        p.name = pname
Plus some of the early lines are spoken by "Me" instead of p.

I was going to say that the code you've shown is what I have but the last line makes sense now I think about it. Thanks.

Nonetheless, I don't see why his screenshots show "Player" - it shows as "Steve" (or whatever) for me.

The "Me" thing is used in the early scenes before MC introduces himself to Kari. That was just a storytelling device.

I know nothing about coding so i can't comment on that but i wanted to see what effects some of the choices were having so I installed the mod on a seperate install and got the same thing as Sennistrasz showed in his screenshot with the MC's name showing up as "player". So yeah i think the mod is causing it cause it works fine in my unmodded game

Unofficial Android Port of:

The Roommate [v0.6.1 Public] [togs] + JokerLeader's WT Mod



You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
My android port has an alternative save location, the save will remain intact when you uninstall the game so don't worry about starting over. And my port has a textbox opacity slider and text size slider and added change name to the main menu.

if you like my ports, consider buying me a cofee as to motivate me and get me going to do more ports, and help me pay for mega storage, thanks

The first bit is just context to show where to put it. Oh, and the default=pname part would fill in the input field with the default name, might be particularly useful for the age one to give people an idea the approximate kind of value they want to be entering, that it isn't a 'he's 18, honest' situation which is probably the most common reason games ask about age.

It's really weird, I downloaded it direct from Patreon, and I haven't installed a mod on it, and it's clearly defining the player with the name of 'Player'. But somehow it's showing the name instead, I like to think I have a pretty good understanding of Renpy, but I just don't get how it's happening.

I'm not really sure I get the point of that. If we entered the name when we introduced ourself to Kari it would make sense that our text would have to display differently before that, but since he already has his name before we meet her I'm not sure why it would be different.

I like how some of the characters look (tbh main ones, like LOL, Kari, Mallory). This game could use gallery tbh (preferably with hint system how to unlock scenes) either integrated naturally or by some mod.
I have a feeling I missed quite a few scenes in my playthrough.

A gallery might be nice, but hasn't been exactly top of the "to do" list.


As to the sex scenes, I can't think of anything you missed off the top of my head.

But let me say again that there's no "right way" to play.

The idea is that there will ultimately be numerous possible ways to go after the various girls. There may come a time when certain options exclude others. There will certainly be variations depending on the character profile and how that gets shaped by the way you act in the game. So some girls may actually be more attracted to MC if he acts like a dick, other won't respond well to that.

Take Ashley, for example...

Early in the game, there are frequent internet outages that encourage you to go to the coffee shop.
If you tip decently, you build some rapport with Ashley and she may suggest the Sugar Daddy thing.

On the other hand that might not happen but you might think of her for the legal assistant role.

In that case, maybe you'll be able to segue that into a relationship.


Okay...

Mallory. When I first created the game I said something like "You don't get to shag your mom or your sisters" - leading to a lot of joking around about what a terrible game it would be, and that there would have to be a hidden option to make the relationships incestuous.

So the whole milking thing was me trying to be humorous - I quite literally asked myself "what crazy fetish can I incorporate?" as a riposte to the incest thing.

It's not supposed to be the WHOLE THING. It's a humorous side-story that kind of snowballed. Some people don't care for it. Bummer. Go find another incest game then.


Again, this is my first game. Lots has changed since I started it. I originally thought the money would be more important. Right now, it's really not. But I can absolutely forsee a time when MC will have to consider whether he can support yet another concubine, or car payment. Maybe there'll be a scandal over LactoMax that will result in a crash in ASI's stock price.

It's also pretty hard to run out of energy at this stage, but add a few more girls to the mix and that could become a problem. What if MC can't manage the company because he's constantly exhausted?

The game is just about a year old. There are things I planned from the start that I still haven't got around to, and there are any number of things in there that really weren't in the original plan.

Lois was supposed to be no more significant than some of the receptionists are now - she was intended to be the flirty secretary and that was it. Now she's right up there with Kari in terms of her place in MCs world.


Anyway, I'm waffling. I should really get organized and post more of this stuff to the blog.

I can't get the game to reload my saved game from a couple of hours ago. I'll wait until it gets fixed in some future update. I do like what I've seen so far. My progress got as far the pizza parlor scene.
I played though all the way to the end after downloading only the game. I can't wait for more.

Maybe I need to clarify that the age is supposed to be MC's, not players.

It's been a year since I started out. I think I assumed the MC had to be a character called "Player" and I do remember having problems with it early on, but can't recall the details.

As to the "Me" thing, obviously you enter a name at the beginning of the game, but at that point you're the co-author/casting director, rather than the character.

At the start of Dr. No, Sean Connery is a good looking guy in a Tux. He meets Sylvia Trench at the casino. You know what he's thinking, but in theory, you don't yet know his name, so in the game it would be:

"Me" "I'd like to give her a good seeing-to."

Back to the film. He lights her cigarette and flirts, then comes the line: "Bond. James Bond"

Now we know who he is, and in the game it's now:

James "A bottle of Dom Perignon. The '53..."

I don't know if that makes sense - I don't know how to explain it any better.
