Version 0.8.4.5
Gameplay changes
- [NPC] Aisha now starts with a Deepthroat skill of 0 (was random).
- [NPC] Stats affecting a girl's willingness to participate in threesomes can now be viewed by clicking on the red "refuses" link upon entering the Threesome Engine.
- [NPC] NPCs winning arranged fights at The Arena will now increase their Downed Enemies counter.
- [NPC] Slightly decreased the Affection loss from low Salaries for high-tier NPCs and NPCs with the Materialistic trait.
- [NPC] NPCs that are in a relationship will now regenerate their Relationship Trait Value by one point per day if Affection toward the MC is below Amiable.
- [NPC] NPCs now have a 2% chance to increase STAMINA during flagellation sessions (cap: 100). The chance is 3% if STAMINA is below 40 and 1% if STAMINA is 70+.
- [COMBAT] Removed a rogue "Enemy is hit" text from the old combat log framework.
Sexual Disposition values
Hovering over an NPC's sexual stat values in the NPC Menu will now display his or her Sexual Disposition toward the specific type of sex. These stats have been more or less hidden and not clearly defined other than in the Ask engine, which in most cases couldn't provide the player with a detailed answer.
New NPC: Ellen Shaw (Tier request)
Available at Hamilton Square (Bellemme Estate) from day one.
Ellen is an out-of-luck, 20-year-old former SGPD Officer who's willing to take up any job that can save her from her current state of destitution. She also offers a mini-quest that could potentially restore her as a household-assigned police officer.
This NPC comes with a full wardrobe and an enhanced limited sex scene archive (~20 scenes).
New quest: The Detective
Reaching Loving+ with Ellen Shaw (Talk > Ask > Background) opens up a small quest that can be resolved either through "standard procedures" or through The Senate.
New Location: Hamilton SGPD
The Police Department of Hamilton Square is now a permanent location, similar to Town Hall, with separated quest objectives and a unique render.
This also removes the rare chance of having overlapping quest POIs on the map if you're doing "In the Name of God" and have the Tier2+ slave at the jail.
New item: Clothing Box (Clothing Store, Westside)
Nika's now sells a box that contains over a hundred out-of-fashion (?) clothes that'll active a unique "Revealing outfit" option for a select number of NPCs. These unique clothes are very well-made alternatives produced by MoR's hired 3D-artist and can vary greatly in appearance, color and skimpiness.
News section
Upon interacting with various time-based institutions in Ikaanos (like entering the gymnasium or earning your first senate ranking point), you'll now see a convenient News section every time you enter your Home, either from Conclude Day or after returning from a district. This feature can be turned off in the Household overview section.
Gymnasium changes
The Gymnasium is now an independent entity that no longer waits for the MC to arrive at the location with his girls. This means you can miss a scheduled final if you don't keep track of remaining days.
- A new script will reset and align the "finals" variables upon hitting Conclude Day when updating to 0.8.4.5.
- Grand finals are now held every 50 days (was 100).
Combat overhaul (slot weapons)
The old Favorite weapon cycle system has been removed and replaced by a new system that'll eventually be applied to both the MC and his NPCs. In 0.8.4.5, only The MC has this new system active, however.
You now have to equip yourself properly before heading out into battle. The MC has four weapon slots that you equip from the inventory. Those weapons can be of any combination - four melee weapons, three melee weapons and one ranged weapon etc.
- Upon equipping a weapon, that item is removed from your Armory. When clicking the "X" button, the weapon is returned to your Armory. This eliminates several old bugs and inconsistencies that allowed you to sell or remove equipped weaponry and accidentally give your last plasma rifle to an NPC.
- You only have access to your armory when at your Home (Sandbox diff can reach the armory from any location), adding a tactical layer to the current combat system. Make sure to grab your favorite rifle, a trusty sidearm, and maybe a Great Sword and a Whipping cane.
- While in combat, you can now easily switch between carried weapons by just clicking on the weapon sprites in the bottom left corner. Firing a selected weapon displays the old (larger) weapon sprite and ammo. The hotkeys for changing weapons are still A or D.
NOTE! If you prefer the old cycle system, you can reactivate it by going to Options > Mods > Page III > Old Favorite WP > On.
Armor and MC clothes
Clicking on "Armor" now opens up another pane with the familiar armor values. This new framework also enables the ability to dress the MC in clothes that are not armor. Put on a fancy suit to enhance your Charm attempts or dress in special attire that boosts your chances during Shrine lectures (WIP - coming in 0846).
Art
- Added Piper's shower scenes (7 pics).
- Added 4 Revealing outfit wardrobe renders (Lovisa, Averil, Caitlin, Aiko).
- Replaced 26 wardrobe pics for Piper.
Bug fixes
- Fixed a critical bug that wouldn't alleviate the Anger effects from not meeting a First Wife's Power Value-based salary.
- Fixed a critical bug that could display unrelated floating text sections in the quest menu (very rare).
- Fixed an erroneous multiplier in the fl oz converter.
- Removed the rogue "SGPD Officer" City Job button for NPCs that are not eligible for such an assignment.
- Fixed a bug that would increase the Power Value of CTM with ten times the amount stated when passing a pro-CTM bill at The Senate.
- Fixed a missing definer script for Raikan Gale, which could produce errors when purchasing it from Toshi Gardens.
- The Abbey is now correctly added to the Expenditures variable (Economy Menu).
- The Extrovert Trait will no longer show up in the Trait pane until reaching its defined value (75).
- Fixed many typos.
