From the point of view of a single developer I can understand you, but please be aware that if you only optimize for Chrome Engine, you are contributing to a return to the bad old days of Internet Explorer 6. Back then nearly all webistes were not following standards , but were build only to work with IE6. Firefox helped to break this trend and made standards viable again.
Now Google is on the brink to control the Internet in this way as Firefox is the only major browder (I know of) out there which does not use the Chrome engine. And optimizing only for Chrome contributes to the fact that this is bad.
Dude, XCL won't have a significant impact on which browser people will use and I think the devs are free to choose what browser to optimize the game for. Just embrace big brother and chill ;)

Started a new game...
I ran into an issue where guys won't actually pay me for sex.
I mean, they offer to pay me, but I won't actually get the money.

The game doesnt have poor performance because the dev has optimized for chrome, it has poor performance because its a fact that firefox is inherently slower than chrome, and its firefox own fault because they seem more interested in politics rather than in improving their browser. focusing on chrome is the best choice for a dev because you get better performance out of the box without a hassle.

and i say this as someone who daily drives firefox btw.

EDIT: Do not misunderstand my post as me placing all the burden of performance on the browser alone, when it comes down to it there's a heavy price to pay for Harlowe's abstractions but Firefox will slow down earlier than Chrome due to their different JavaScript engines. The bottleneck itself in this case is no other than Harlowe, Harlowe was meant for small text-based games of the CYOA style not for this kind of heavily interactive game with lots of media.
The game will continue getting slower as it grows and Firefox will continue slowing down earlier.

Hrm, can the people at the office only ever use 24 hour pills on you? If so, might be interesting if, with a high enough slut level, they might go for more.

they definitely will use different pills on you, got spiked with a breeder pill on one of my playthrough and that pill lasted around 1 week iirc

I noticed Bar drugging mod is not working.
Code:
:: bar drug start [bar_exit]

        (set:$today_events to $today_events + (a:"barstuck"))

            (set:_exit to "false")
            (set:$next to "bar drug check motivation")
            (display:"change screen")
        ]
    ]
}

:: bar drug check motivation

    (set:_drugreason to "no")

    <!-- this is here to account for old versions of BarDrug -->
    (if:$drugpilled is "yes")[(set:$drugpilled to 1)]
    (if:$drugpilled is "no")[(set:$drugpilled to 0)]

    (if:$drugpilled > 0)[

        (else:)[
            (set:$next to "bar drug backroom")(display:"next")
        ]
    ]
}
How would I edit this code to get it working again.

I just use Chrome for this game and don't browse the web with it. For the Internet, I've found Brave to be faster than Chrome. It uses the Chrome core but with all the spyware and nonsense removed. Brave will also work with Chrome extensions because of the Chrome core. I'm using a gaming PC and I still noticed a decent performance improvement when I switched from Chrome to Brave. I have had some minor issues playing this game with Brave so I use Chrome only for this game.

You can’t get to it via gameplay yet, it’s still in development, sectioned off - when testing I trigger it in the debug console

Hi, you can either report the issue on #mod-bug-reports in the Discord, or report it to the author on the mod-specific thread on LoversLab:

FWIW, I have only played XCL in Firefox and I've never had a (Firefox specific) problem with either a release or even when playing around with modding and test builds from the source/on gitgud.

One thing that might be fun is surprise to the sex scenes.

Maybe you could hide the male pleasure bar and you could maybe give hints about his status (hard/throbbing/frantic ect.) but even just hiding the bar and making the stamina very different between NPCs would be good.

I think it can be fun if halfway through the blowjob game he starts spurting or if you're trying to cum and no idea how close he is.

Ooh I like that idea of having the pleasure bar be invisible and only communicating through writing. Will have to explore that...

so I would guess the secretary job is as big as the update for this new promotion and lead update right?
Yeah, in terms of the sheer amount content then it's probably a bit bigger, although it's more "concentrated". It's basically a whole parallel career path, as well as acting as sort of a punishment system for being bad at sales.

It is going to interact strongly with the workplace progression stuff in place - you'll be able to work as a secretary some days and a salesperson on other days to achieve the maximum money-making potential. And you'll interact with the same NPCs as a secretary and the relationship effects will carry over between the two roles. Working as a secretary, you'll earn "points" from doing admin work that you can spend on a variety of things to represent what you worked on - you can redeem points to upgrade the leads you have, or you can convert them to money, or get stuff like a nice massage at the corporate spa! Lol

Anyhow it's still very much a WIP... I'm just mainly trying to capture the power dynamics and give some really good big tits content so lythucphuong97 will stop attacking me for doing small tits stuff! :)

At least in the office my guy works, its more about the presentation with the PowerPoints then the size.

At high masculinity, the player character can't initiate a kiss with males. Maybe, at those levels, the pleasure bar could be hidden, as a way of showing how the character still isn't accepting that (s)he is trying to pleasure a guy?

I guess you can't impregnate female NPCs as male player? :cry:

Edit: Nevermind, I saw some posts from a few months ago confirming this. Sorry for asking the same question again. All girls in the bar mention they are not on birth control so I thought that was an implication for impregnation content but I guess not.

Edit2: No matter how much I make girls cum (my record is 6) their satisfaction doesn't go beyond 5/10. I thought if I could raise that to 10/10 they will not get angry after cummed inside but I can't. I wonder if this stops interacting with them indefinitely?
