Bug Fixing and Update Planning
Added 2020-08-04 08:54:19 +0000 UTCIt's been a few days since the patron release of v0.31, during which I've been tracking down and fixing any bugs that were reported. Bug fixing has been going well, which has given me time to work on some other tasks that I've wanted to get tidied but that were low on the priority list.
One of those tasks has been to write out a description of what each band of Sluttiness, Love, and Obedience is suppose to mean in terms of characterization and actions. I did this back when I created Lab Rats 1 for the more generic "influence" stat in that game and found it useful for keeping events consistent in the relationship between triggering requirements and contents of the event.
I am also starting to plan out what I will be working on in v0.32. I think the focus is going to be your home life, specifically adding more interactions with your mother and sister that highlight their corruption or give new ways to corrupt them. Part of that will be adding some generic "look around" or "investigate" actions to the various locations, which might be generalized to be possible in anyone's house. There will be more about this in a future dev post!

in the role_affair script: When you ask her to leave her SO: $ the_person.draw_person(position = "happy") "happy" does not appear to be a valid position.

2020-08-06 23:34:53 +0000 UTCBug report - I've had Gabrielle say her line for taking control but then nothing happens, even if you both have energy to spare. She also gets the -3 obedience as if it happened but then she immediately skips to 'whew, I needed that' dialogue and the scene ends. I did a little testing and it seems to be because she was at a negative love value but it's still weird in that case.

2020-08-06 17:49:00 +0000 UTCAn option to meet with a girl at the clothing shop and buy her clothing would be nice, basically like the add an outfit from obedience 120, except you convince her to try on an outfit and if she likes it (below sluttiness cap) you can buy the outfit for her, costing $100 to add an outfit. The would be especially useful (and make sense) for Lily and Gabrielle.

2020-08-06 15:22:41 +0000 UTCAs a suggestion, I think you could section off some of the more submissive or enthusiastic dialogue to be unlocked only after they've had a serum (or have certain events based on who has and who hasn't.) There's already the event where you unlock another research tier, where Stephanie asks for girls who have been exposed to the serums. As it stands the serums can be a bit ancillary to your basic flirt options in the early game, and some dialogue is a bit odd if you know you haven't used a serum on a particular character. A line or two upon each major characters first use, mentioning their hyper-focus on the MC or spacing out slightly under the tier 3 'mind control agent' could be a nice addition.

2020-08-06 09:41:05 +0000 UTCI find ranking things by band or range is very helpful. I run games over on fiction.live and for one of them I did just that in saying what various point values mean. It greatly increased both my writing speed and also my consistency. Definitely worth the investment
2020-08-05 20:05:07 +0000 UTCIt'd be fantastic to be able to visit Jennifer at work, or having covert interactions with Jen and Lily e.g. remote vibrators, quickies at uni or work, etc. Also, a small questline involving getting over taboos and officially declaring a relationship status would be fantastic.

2020-08-04 18:56:16 +0000 UTCAdding to small requests, being able to add serum to Gabrielle and Rebecca's food while they live with you would be nice so you can keep Gabrielle's love below 0 but still dose her without having to wait for blackmail opportunities.

2020-08-04 17:56:13 +0000 UTCI actually have a small request - could we move the mandatory weekly event where mom ask for money back a day. As it stands Friday night is the only night where the player might not be home, so its weird to be teleported home for the event, and then appear back at the dates house. Pretty sure you'd just have to change line 4 of the role_mother.rpy to something like: if time_of_day == 4 and day%7 == 5:
2020-08-04 17:24:18 +0000 UTCJust wondering, you refer to them as mother and sister. But weren’t they your step mother and sister in the first lab rats?
