Not gonna take you at your word 'cause the poor performance in a browser that isn't chromium based speaks by itself, and even then it tends to get laggy in certain events.
You can see in the save file size, that XCL save file sizes are under 1mb, mine are usually around 200kb. It used to be that Harlowe would continue storing every "turn" of data, but now it no longer does if you use the (forget-undos
etc macros.Me too! My goal is to continue supporting it, building it more into a "platform" than just a game, so that people can make their own mods and storylines.
Electron spins up an instance of chromium to run your code so i dont really see why it should give you increased performance, the browser already has access to all the system resources anyways.You can see in the save file size, that XCL save file sizes are under 1mb, mine are usually around 200kb.

XCL may not *seem* more complex from the outset, because it hides a lot of its complexity from the player and tries to present things simply. But if you take a look at the NPC generation etc under the hood, the cock database, the clothing database and sex position database, it is handing quite a large amount of stuff.
Most people do have good performance on Firefox, there are just so many things going into browser performance. My desired future state is to release an electron app that will have more access to system resources.
Point one is moot since browsers are multi threaded so each tab executes in its own process.
I'm not referring to loading media, referring to loading text databases and stuff, keeping them separate from the HTML file so that they are only retrieved exactly when necessary.
Unfortunately the same thing happens. I don't get any option for a serum at all and when I choose dance again it still goes blank.
I'll try to explain it more clearly. The first time I even did the dance for Dredd's boys I didn't get offered the serum even after losing identity. When I did go back to the bar thought to speak to him again I clicked the dance again button and when I do basically nothing happens. I'll attach these two photos for some reference so it might make it easier.
Okay, understood. How about this then:
That appears to have did the trick! If there's anymore issues I'll be sure to let ya know. Thank you so much!
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.
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
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.
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
