Is there a way to exclude a certain girl to be chosen as crownjewel? (for example by adding crownjewel:false to the json file)

I want to do that for some girls from the Basic-Pack. I tried to remove them from the girlspack folder, but that caused the game to freeze in scramble mode when I hit the recruit button. So I'm looking for another way.

No, but this is not a bad idea!

Connection.

If you're not getting connection, there's an entire upgrade path you've neglected. Make sure that you've turned in all of Nicole's Missions.

Keybinds for Customer Helps (drinks/stims, etc) and Extend/Finishers is currently being tested.

I play the 9.5.0.1 Version and finish the Quest and have no Questlist more for Nicole.

Then make sure you have every level of the Secretary club improvement you can and make sure one of your girls is working the secretary position (preferably a PHD or other compatible trait). You'll probably need to do a Connection-churn-griding strat in this scenario. The costume that -reduces- client time helps with this, set modular booths to dance, grab a snob or two and start punting.

I encoutered a small issue in scramble-mode:

I got a girl though lottery. I tried to train her in the lounge, but her openess didnt raise (the same is true for work). Later I saw that the same girl was on the recruit list, with the same trait (in this case it was PHD) and same openness (23). I encountered this with some girls in some of my playthroughs but I never could nail down when/why it occurs.

Normaly i load again and try to get another girl, so the issue is somehow avoidable.

Edit: just had the same problem again: this she wasn't in the recruit list, but her openess was the same: 23. Again no openess gain throuh lounge or work. Adiitional: every girl in the recruiting list at this point comes with 23 openess.

Edit 2: Did some further testing: the problem seems to occur whenever i get a girl from lottery that has the same openess as the girls in the recruit list.
Don't know if i understand that correctly, but there seems to be fixed values of openess for the girls in recruit list depending on how many girls you have already hired through recruitung (it seems lottery doesn't count) . Whenever a girl you got from the lottery hits one of theat values the openess seems to be locked (in my case ist was 23 and 27).

Was it a Brat?

I need better error catching to ensure recruited girls don't show up on the scramblerecruit list then. Thank you.

23 is a strange number for openness to 'lock' at, a brat will 'lock' at 20 or 24.

Are you sure it's not around 33? If you have openness locking at 33, this is fully explainable within the game mechanics and intended, for the booths at least.

Edit 2: Did some further testing: the problem seems to occur whenever i get a girl from lottery that has the same openess as the girls in the recruit list.

This shouldn't be, there's nothing in either the lounge or the booths that can refer to or even see the recruit list data.

Don't know if i understand that correctly, but there seems to be fixed values of openess for the girls in recruit list depending on how many girls you have already hired through recruitung (it seems lottery doesn't count) .

This IS correct and intended. There is an intended curve of openness, stats, and costs that occur behind the scenes based on recruited and not lottery/broker/cj'd girls.

Whenever a girl you got from the lottery hits one of theat values the openess seems to be locked (in my case ist was 23 and 27).

I'd need further testing, because I've not found this in my testing, and the only mechanic in the game that 'locks openness' gains is the one that caps what specific acts do--dancing can never boost openness past the natural threshold for foreplay, for example.

Was it a Brat?

No, during testing it happened with several traits. Nevertheless, even brats gain openeness through the lounge, don't they?

Yes i'm sure, it was 23 (I'll add screenshots later). During further testing it also appeared at 27 and 33 (and maybe other openess values that girls in the recruiting list have). They won't gain any openess through working or Training in lounge (in the lounge they should gain openess, despite beeing capped for working, right?).

I'm not sure what causes the problem, but atm the openess values are the only thing that stands out to me.

Not in my experience, no.

Not in my experience, no.

thanks, learned something new again.

Here are some screenshots:



thats how i got her from lottery



tried to raise her openess through lounge an work, with no result.


thats what my recruit list and my club looked like at this point.

This is just one example. While testing it occured with several different girls and traits. For me it seems not to be a girlpack issue.

It looks like there's a duplicate instantiation issue with Chloe which is causing a conflict--she's existing in both places at the same time.

I'll set up better error-checking for the recruit mode that checks if you have 'dupe' girls in the 'scrambled recruit list' and see if that helps.

thanks for your hard work.
This also happened with girls, that are not in the recruit list, for example scarlett:

Even if you buy the Foreplay stuff?

 

[BlueLine]

Tried it by making her do foreplay with the negotiator but she gained no openess. So, yes.

Could the rejection of girls in the recruit list on the same day have an influence on the lottery? I sometimes do this to see if there are good offers...

Edit: no, tested it. Appears both, with rejecting girls and without.

Reject churning shouldn't affect anything except reshuffle the girls' random stats when she comes up again--I do it myself to get desirable traits.

Do you have a trainer hired?

 

[BlueLine]

Do you have a trainer hired?

Yes

During testing yesterday I might have found something:

​

I quited the game and started it new + load the save.

1st i tested the lottery: I didn't encounter any girls with stucked openess.

​

2nd i tested rejecting girls in the recruit list (only rejecting, no hire).

After doing this i tested lottery: girls with stucked openess appeared.​

in my case it seems that quiting the game 1x resets the lottery. Rejecting girls in the recruit list somehow brakes the lottery.

I might be wrong with this, but it is what i experienced yesterday.

Request you add more music for club while girls are working. After a couple hours of gameplay I feel like I need more variety.

In your directory there will be a directory called Musics. Under Musics, you'll find Club and Work.

Translate music of your choice into .ogg format, and put it in that directory, and you can customize your game music experience.

Hey, really like the changes you made to speed up the midgame/change up the gameplay, since I have a lot of girls it got a little tedious.


Some minor problems:
- When selecting girls for the day and using random it either doesn't fill all places or it takes girls with no energy who instantly get deselected
- Just a feeling but could be that this randomizer doesn't pick from all the girls?(maybe prefers the first 50) It seems to pick certain girls more often than others, this could also be thanks to the...random element
- Nicole still says she wants to see you reach 35 openness when you talk / she gives you the quest

Noted. I don't know if I can do anything about the girl-select randomizer (random isn't really intended) but I can go in and fix Nicole's text.

How do I learn what traits like exhibitionist do? I can see e.g. booth bunny by hiring the performer and then looking at her staff page, but the staff page only ever provides a description of the bottom of the two traits in the scramble hire screen.
