Thanks! Got the 1st typo, I am not able to find the second in the code when searching for "som", was there any punctuation around it?

The view outfit thing is just how it is at the moment for certain screen resolutions, the default view is the portrait, the outfit view is just meant to be temporary. If anyone wants to submit some clever CSS fixes to ensure this doesn't happen i'd be all ears.

The cheat menu has been fixed in the codebase but not in the latest patch yet...

I recommend using Chrome if you are on desktop. Otherwise, not sure why you would be encountering those performance issues.
I most definitely will not use this spyware as a browser for whatever reason! Besides my Firefox functions well with the game, so some problems encountered by players could hinge on the browser setup.

I use (OSource) Chromium Dev mode... so basically everything that is happening I already know or I use my own scripts. I never experienced any problems with any game or load problems.
When I open C mode and monitor tracking scripts everything is fine until starts to bombard or overload script load order and reports load(failed)... Interrupts (failed) musicLoad)failed)... JavaPrintJS Error etc (86 load order errors)... and the browser is starting to run slower and slower...

reduction is good in some way when pathetic Chads approach MC... (this is happening after the second-time approach because scripts don't have time to restart load order...

Dev only answers because the answer is needed... and doesn't give a shit... only "I don't know why you have a performance issue" :ROFLMAO:

Be that as it may, generally speaking we have found higher performance with XCL on Chrome browsers than Firefox. But most users using Firefox have had acceptable performance, so it is a moot point.

I'll admit I only understood about 50% of this... wish I could help more.
Any plans to have the ability to slip male npcs a pink?
Definitely, it's only fair!

That might be the case, that Chrome gives higher performance with XCL, but since Firefox delivers the needed performance also, there is no reason to get Google Chrome. That is simply spyware with a sidefunction as a browser to camouflage it´s leeching of your PC!:)

Will happen. Not as a core mechanic but as side content...

Fair enough - it's just something I recommend for people having performance problems because it gives measurably better performance for XCL by about 50% in some tests. I use Adguard to block the tracking stuff myself.

The game is written in a twine story format known to scale poorly - harlowe -, i use firefox on my day to day but i must play this game in any chromium based browser to have a good performance.

Thanks for update. For now game look really interesting and promising. In previous version I played without events on work (sale-demo). Don't know why. Maybe don't try even understand that need to do... Don't matter. Now I tryed it and all this content was new for me. Even character give birth 2 times. Yes. I played long enough in this version. Good progress. A little bit sad that in some events NPC react same. I talk about asking stepdad for help. Intresting to see that you make in future. Hope was wore content with Alexia, stepdad. And that then you play as male - you can invite girls or go to them. Or why you can ask number but can't call them.

Harlowe no longer scales poorly due to recent updates to the engine, the history macro can be eliminated and the local storage bloat can as well. I have also customized the engine a bit to cut out some things we don’t need and add features like save exporting.

The only other Twine game as mechanically complex as this one is accidental woman written in Sugarcube.

Harlowe is much nicer to write with in my opinion and I’m glad this game uses it. I will eventually package this game as an electron app so that it will be more performance friendly, although I’m not sure how that would work with modding.

Thanks for the comments! Stay tuned, most of the content you mention will be added over time.

Just out of curiosity, will there ever be a spiking of the coffee with a petite pill? I think that would be an interesting option to explore.

Just curious, is it possible (either by mod or maybe coding it myself in some way) to put in custom photos/profile pictures on some of the generated dudes? Because I would like to change, mostly the ones in the chad folder, into other people of my choosing (obviously through the downloaded version.)

Definitely! You would simple replace the images in /img/npc/guys/generated/, and the game will use your new ones.

Now, if you want to change it so the descriptions match these photos, you can do that too, but slightly tougher. There's a js file compiled with the game that contains all the data structure definitions. I've attached the separate file so you can see how it's structured. You can edit the values directly in the X-Change Life.html file, alternatively I believe the Mod loader allows you to recompile the js files now.

Anyhow that's just if you want to change their attributes - adding the custom images is super easy - just replace the images using the same names.
