Please use this thread to ask questions about how to do things in the BK game.
It is worth noting that cheats are currently available from the "?" help menu in the top-right corner of the home screen, and that some behave strangely if used from other screens.
Using the cheats from the menu will disable achievements for this playthrough, so weigh that.
Please state the full version you are using, like ver 0.2 v220511.
I have two questions.
I'm using version 220228. Should I download the latest patch and is there any chance it will break things in my game since I have mods installed? I don't remember which were all the mods since the old forum is dead but I'm sure there was trait king and some others too possibly.
Also can I just delete images I don't like from a girl pack mid save without breaking her?
Quote from: Albatross on May 15, 2022, 09:49 PMAlso can I just delete images I don't like from a girl pack mid save without breaking her?
Yes, but...
1) Save your game on the main brothel home screen. This is a good neutral location with no girls appearing.
2) Quit the game.
3) Delete your pics.
4) Restart the game. Load your save but do not leave the brothel home screen.
5) Use the option to fix MC and girl images from under the ? menu in the upper right corner.
Going through this is to get the game to load the newly changed set of pics while none of them are actively in use.

It will not break the mod's. But after the update it's recomended to start a new game.
Ah nevermind then. Unless there's something really big I'm not gonna change saves soon.
On another note how do I advance from chapter 2? I got 5k gold but northing happened. Do I need to complete all the kunoichi quests first as well?
Check out the FAQ, linked on the main forum page. I believe that covers most of the questions about getting out of chapter 2.

I made a little guide if you still cant figure it out with the FAQ. https://f95zone.to/threads/brothel-king-v0-2-release-goldo.3282/page-201 (https://f95zone.to/threads/brothel-king-v0-2-release-goldo.3282/page-201)
Hey, I'm a player from some time now but it is my first message in the community !
In each of my playthrough i come accross a little annoyance. How do you guys do for a picture to not repeat itself too much when doing an act? I checked and for example the girl has 8 pictures for sex_doggy but most of the time it will repeat the same picture (which is marked number 0004) .
Any way to influence that? Or should I delete pictures i have seen too much? If i siplify my question is there a way to cycle through most pictures a girl and/or act easilly?
(PS: Love the game ! Happy to see the forum again. )
You can change the frequency in wich the pic will shown. Just either tag it with freq_high (shown more often) or with freq_low (shown less often). Other than that idk if there is any way for it. If it's not tagged with either of them then it should be random with wich pic it's showing.

so i got new patch but its saying saved game is v220228 and im running v220519 using older saves with new ones might cause error do i have to start a new game every patch or its it ok not to if i dont have a mod in it?
Regarding mods, in principle they can be activated and also deactivated during a run. The ones I have written (JobMod, SummaryMod) definitely can handle this.
Regarding patches, you should start a new game. If you have an ongoing run, finish it before installing a new patch.
It can work in some cases, but you're very likely to run into problems if you don't start a new game.
Also, you can make different copies of BK on your harddrive. (With different levels of patches) You can even use Symbolic Links (More Info here (https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/16226/complete-guide-to-symbolic-links-symlinks-on-windows-or-linux/)) to "share" a central Girlpack folder between the copies.
Command Prompt Example (there must not be a girls folder in BK-new)
mklink /D C:\BK-new\game\girls C:\BK-old\game\girls
Note: This is a little advanced, so I recommend being at least somewhat comfortable with the command prompt.
Quote from: Ch12 on Jun 02, 2022, 02:48 AMAlso, you can make different copies of BK on your harddrive. (With different levels of patches)
Although the persistent data file, incl. settings, and copies of saves, will be shared in the roaming folder (Win %APPDATA%\RenPy\Bro King-1419249291 ).
is there a way to undo a skill for a girl you upgraded? i realize the path i went for the girl i have isnt the most optimal for my current brothel build n i dont really want to just sell her shes a noble 😂
so the lucky charm rabbits foot it says (does not stack) does that mean it doesn't stack with Lucky Trait?

But that would be the easiest solution. You can get the noble trait again with either recruiting her again with Jman HeadHunter mod. Or readding the trait with the King's way mod.

ohh im playing with no "cheats" only Trait King mod im guessing u cant reverse it its ok im not gunna lose even tho Hunter month is usually the hardest month for me 😭😂😂😎
Well the HeadHunter isn't really a "cheat". Even Goldo want to intruduce her from a later chapter onwards. It's just that Jman wasn't satisfied with it that there is no HH from the get go so he pulled "her" out from his own Boananza mod and made "her" work for the vanilla BK. 8)

In combination with Trait King it can be a bit cheaty, since some traits are much more powerful than others (and they're stronger than vanilla traits in general)
But even if it is, finding ways to exploit it and discovering new strategies adds a fun new dimension to the game. A simple example that also works without Trait King would be filling your entire brothel with "Magnetic" girls.
"Cheaty" but still cant be considered a cheat ;D

Yes, by cheating. ^^
What to do:
1/ Look for the girl you want to change and interact with her. This should set the 'girl' variable to the right value (confirm that by opening the console with Shit+o and typing 'girl.name' (without quotes).
2/ To remove the latest perk, run the following lines of code,
one by one, in the console:
girl.remove_effects(girl.perks[-1].effects)girl.perks = girl.perks[:-1]girl.reset_sex_acts(first=False)3/ Repeat as many times as needed to get rid of all the perks you recently added
4/ Refund your perk points with the following line, replacing X with the number of perk points
girl.perk_points += XQuote from: j01ntr0l1a on Jun 05, 2022, 01:33 AMso the lucky charm rabbits foot it says (does not stack) does that mean it doesn't stack with Lucky Trait?
That's correct.
I play HHS for a rather long time and I recently discovered BK! So many events, so many stories ! A month ago, I knew nothing about BK and now I guess I'm addicted! :D Big thanks to the whole one-man team ;) and to the other contributors as well!
Okay, I have a question. I play the last version and somewhere in chapter 2, I'm blocked: I sent one of my slaves to the Farm for a week (for obedience problems), now she's back but I can't make her work again. I think I missed something, but can't find what it is. :'(

The basics would be that she is assigned to a job, and using the calendar-scheduler is scheduled for full or part-time shifts.
Past that, it is possible the girl is stuck in some odd or conflicting state. Do you see any unusual indications? Include a screenshot with current stats (base/source the pic from F95 if possible).

When I started the game, I had a look at the girls schedules and since I could select their job (including "No job") each day, I didn't dig any further. Okay, it's much more logical like it is: if their schedule says "From Monday to Friday, you work. Saturday and Sunday, you rest. Period.", they just follow what it says, tired or not!
I get it now and everything works well. Thanks! :-[
Hello everyone
I have two questions regarding friendships between the girls. Is there a way for them to like each other if they happen to be rivals on their first confrontation? Also, is it random if girls happen to like or hate each other or does it depend on anything in the game?
Thank you for reading :)
Kind regards

It has a big random component, but is also influenced by:
- How compatible their personalities are (Prude types generally dislike Slutty types, Dominant types dislike other Dom's, but like making friends with Submissive types, etc.)
- The "Helping hand" perk from the Bride perk-tree (+ if the other girl has that perk)
Whenever your girl is working, there's a chance for her relationships to change.
If she's currently in a friendship or rivalry, you can try to discourage that by talking to her about it (General topics > Getting along with other girls)

Thank you very much for explaining the friendship component of the game in detail yet easily understandable! :D
I have a question about the traits in this game, a bunch of traits have +x for each point of trait. Can you put points into traits at some point?
For Perk's yes. For trait's no. Some trait's give's you some extra at the next rank (TraitKing) and you can evolve negative trait's for a bit better neg trait's (again TraitKing) but other then that no.
Guess I haven't made it to the point trait king ranks up the traits
It's only evolving the neg trait when you clear all negative fixaton from the girl but it's aint evolve the positive and gold trait's.
Oh is it the girls rank that increases the "per rank" traits?
Yes for example the trait give's you +5 charm/rank. So the girl have 55 as a max charm at C rank. At the B rank it will give's you another +5 charm so she will have 110 as a max not 100. And it will go on until you reach the X rank.
Ahh that makes sense, I didn't pay enough attention when I got to rank up. Thanks
Coming back with few questions, more like seeking tips from experienced players.
I'm now able to reach what i think is late game ( 4 th district and access to the last ). I am then a bit overwhelmed by how to manage properly. I lurked around and Maybe I am playing badly from the start:
1) Usually do you go for the next brothel license right away?
2 )Do you always build the maximum number of slaves by brothel? Because i tend to clear the requirements early and skip some ( like i am at 4/6 slaves an go next district)
3) In what category do you put skill points? I feel like stats goes up relatively easy so i don't bother with it and always go Constitution/Obedience and then Libido. But when i reach the Late game I'm struggling so maybe i don't understand enough the skill mechanics?
Usually my girls work poorly except on one category. So maybe i don't train them enough ? (Usually they are efficient on one type of sex act only per slave)
Sorry for my horrible english i regressed so much now that i dont study it anymore in university :x
1) No not really i tend to gain some extra money before i go to the next Brothel in early stage
2) It's up to the player how he/she like to play it some people tend to get max number some not and there are even people who raise the max number of slave's/district by editing the rpy file
3) It's again up to the player some just go for the skill where the girl works some just do the way you do (im pretty much the same in that regard) some even go min maxing and aint going into the next disrict until all of the skill of the girl is maxed out
Well skills represent in wich type they are good at
High charm: good at working in the tavern and good at service
High body: good as a dancer and in anal
High beauty: good as a masseue and in sex
High refinement: good at working as a geisha and in fetish act
I am the type of person who has to get the rank star for the job and move the girl to the next post (as long as it's not taken up by a girl who hasn't maxed her skill in that job). Once they have max skill in that job, I pass them around to the job that can raise their stat if they're still needing to max out beauty, or constitution, or obedience.
The higher the stat in the skill the job focuses on, the more likely you'll get a better payout from the job, is what I've found. Testing is required.
i always upgraded there constitution 1st myself, seemed to work out for me then i did sensitivity
how dp i actually delete all my save files? i went into save folder and deleted all of the files but when i went into load it still had some
Quote from: j01ntr0l1a on Jul 16, 2022, 07:53 PMhow dp i actually delete all my save files? i went into save folder and deleted all of the files but when i went into load it still had some
An additional save location is in your roaming folder, in Windows at %APPDATA%\RenPy\Bro King-1419249291 (you can actually copy/paste this into address of Windows Explorer to get there, or create shortcut).
Deleting the saves from both folders should show them removed the next time you run the game.
Both locations also have a file named "persistent", that usually should remain but sometimes gets messed up to the point of needing to be deleted from both folders.
From the game's save screen, you can also delete single saves by hovering pointer over them, & pressing Delete key.
Passing along a suggestion from another board. Currently there is the ability to replace game images. The "loli patch" does that. The suggestion is that, for those sets of game images that use a series of pics, make the image naming structure expandable. As an example, the game currently has arson1.jpg through arson4.jpg. The suggestion is to have the game support arson5.jpg and up, infinitely. Like it does with the girl packs. The point here is that would allow for the creation of game image expansion packs that add on to the pool of available images instead of just replacing the existing images.

I really need a cheat to catch the third earth kunoichi: I bought another makibishi but it is totally useless, because it has no charge and the game doesn't allow me to use it. So how can I continue to play and reach the next level? I sincerely hope it's possible... I just need to know how... :-\

Thanks! I didn't imagine that asking impossible quests could be a part of this game! ( ;D / :'( ). I dare not ask now if I can advance in the game, but be prepared: if I can't continue, I'll be there again! 8)

The story end's there now. But after losing to all 3 kunoichi and visiting Papa Freak you can advance to the later chapters without problem.
how does one learn a spell?
Quote from: worldsoul on Sep 08, 2022, 11:27 PMhow does one learn a spell?
Earn EXP for the main character. In this game that goes by the name "prestige". There are a number of ways to earn it, but the main one is by doing sex acts with the girls. As you earn it, whenever you earn enough the MC levels up immediately. And if that level includes a spell, you unlock it immediately. You also get a point to spend on the stats of the MC, and you have to go to the MC status page to spend those.

Thanks. Was hoping there were spellbooks I could learn from or something, but if it's just prestige stuff, i'll take it. Are the perks you get on level-up random?
Quote from: worldsoul on Sep 09, 2022, 02:26 AMAre the perks you get on level-up random?
Nope. It's based on your class and what level you have reached. So, since there are three classes, there are three different schedules of what spell/ability is earned at each level.
So on the old forums I asked if there was a way to edit a slave's fixations, to remove negative fixations and add positive.
It's been a while and the only thing I can remember about how to do it is opening the console with shift+o and then something like "selected_girl.pos_fixations", but I can't remember the full command. Anyone able to help?

Use the following command in the console, making sure you selected the right girl:

Got an idea I'm thinking out loud on (in other words, haven't really thought this through), but it might be interesting to have gold-listed girls be singleton in nature. That is, they only have one personality/stats block. So, if you had one, sold her, then she ended up cycling back into the slave market or the city, then she's still be the "same" as the one you sold. There could be some variation in the stats, representing what she's been doing since you got rid of her... or something. Like I said, just thinking out loud here...

Take a look around in the different districts of the slums, if you haven't found it yet you're not exploring the right places. There's a specific sequence you can follow to find it faster but you only have 5 areas to look in, you'll find it quickly regardless.

Search in the spice market until you see an event with a cloaked "men" who's running away from the guards. (This event is easier to reach if you paid the guy in the bar event for info). After that go to the sewers search there too. There will be another event with a bunch of thugs trying to rape and sell a woman as a slave. (ignorable) If you choose to save her and fail to save her you need to go there again at the next day. And voala you found the thieves guild.
Btw up until chapter2 there is an old walkthrough for this game. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NRSs-JTwQqZtAgRDra0nvuIRpWDlAWuRlWGS7Y_kE7M/edit#bookmark=id.vimzopj8fzmk what you can find in the FAQ.

Different girls have different personalities. Most of the gameplay differences between them are relatively small, but the masochist personality is special and very different from the others. Girls with the masochist personality expect you to punish them regularly and get unhappy when they're pampered.
There's no way to change a girl's personality (besides cheating), so if you don't like to treat your girls harshly then selling her might be the best way to go.
a question: shouldn't the girls at the farm raise their sexual skills besides their preferences? or is it just a misspell on the report screens? (eg.: the report says: anal ++++)
The only way to make a girl to remain naked at all times is if she has a weakness for the act? or it just takes a lot more time to convince her, if she doesn't?
She dosn't have to have a weakness in the act. At a certain point you can tell your girl to remain naked at all times after a training.
You need a combination of a couple of values. Basically her Libido plus her Naked-preference. I forget exactly what the combined value needs to be, but generally a Libido of around 75 ends up being enough. Once you have that value, you need to do a successful Naked training one more time. You will then be given the option to order her to always be naked. If you select yes, then on that girl you have unlocked a permanent simple option in her interactions to tell her to dress/undress.
There is a similar option at the end of Naked training to have her be nude for the remainder of the current day. The requirements for this option are similar to the above, just lower needed numbers. So you normally see this choice first, then later you'll see the all-the-time choice.

Yeah, I was confused cause, the girls with a weakness in naked acts, bypass the libido checks, and I was training a girl for almost 3 weeks without a weakness and it never triggered (she has a max of 50 :P )

There is no random factor involved. If you have enough of the needed values, you get the option. If you do not, you do not get it.
As I'm remembering, I think it's libido of 75 at Naked preference of Fascination. A lower naked preference can be overcome by a even higher libido. But the libido of 75 is the bare minimum needed for it to work.
As for the max of 50, it is possible to get it with C ranked girls, but you need to get 25 additional points of libido from somewhere. Furniture, items, traits, etc. The furniture that sets all maximums to at least 75 is great for this, but I think that comes in chapter 2, where you have already unlocked B rank and higher maximums that way as well.
Quote from: Leortha on Oct 18, 2022, 08:47 PMI forget exactly what the combined value needs to be, but generally a Libido of around 75 ends up being enough.
It's need to be >=150. So yeah she need to be atleast at fascinated with it with 75 at libido. Or you need to get lucky to get a girl with the "nudist" trait.
Is there a way to avoid the ninja hunt minigmae? it's giving me a f... headache, in part cause my reflexes sucks, and in part cause my potato pc lags a little in the minigame
Never mind, found the makibishi when looking for flowers in the shop, :P
So I've been noticing increased lag in my game I've been testing girl packs on, and was wondering what may be contributing to the lag and if there was a way to reduce it.
I think I read somewhere that either a large amount of girl packs, or large file sizes in the girl packs could be an issue. My game currently has 122 girl packs. In an attempt to reduce the lag, I went through them and converted the bloated packs to .webp with a limited image size. Some of the packs were 500mb+, they're now all reduced to mostly under 100mb (with three packs being above 200mb).
Is there anything else I can do?
--
Also, not too sure if I should post this in the bug thread, so I'll post it here first since this may be a reason for the lag...
I've noticed in the console this line appear occasionally:

The farm's current purpose is to increase girls' sexual preferences, and secondarily reveal weaknesses and phobias/positive-fixations.
All other farm effects are secondary, and can usually be done better by other methods.
Note that main BBCR stats can be lowered by farm training (Gizel lied...)

The story end's there now. But after losing to all 3 kunoichi and visiting Papa Freak you can advance to the later chapters without problem.
I tried to catch the other kunoichi(s) as well but I couldn't. :'(
So I abandoned the game Then I had so many things which required so much of my time! ::) I really liked the game and, if you say I can advance anyway, I guess I'll give it another try.

I got one of my girls to get permanently naked with 57 libido. First you need to get her preference to "fascinated". After that do an advanced training on her and choose a training option she likes. That triggered the event for me. Idk if the libido stat has anything to do with it tho.
A couple of questions:
- what's the benefit of getting girls permanently naked?
- what does jp stand for?
- any way to delete a save file? i tried deleting manually from the saves folder but it doesn't disappear from the game.

There are 2 save folder to the game. And you need to delete both.
1. in the main game folder
2. go to users/your username/appdata/roaming/renpy and delete the Bro King folder
Edit: if you only want to delete 1 or 2 save you can do that in the game too by hovering over to the save and pressing the delete button on your keyboard.

Is there any way to disable or change certain keyboard hotkeys?
I keep hitting D on certain screens to open up the calendar but it sometimes refreshes the renpy script instead.
Quote from: turbotator on Nov 29, 2022, 06:42 PMIs there any way to disable or change certain keyboard hotkeys?
I keep hitting D on certain screens to open up the calendar but it sometimes refreshes the renpy script instead.
Refreshing the script is Shift+R, but you may be referring to vanilla Ren'Py director mode which defaults to 'D' (or alternatively developer mode which is set to 'Shift+D').
An easy way to disable it on your end is to create a text file on notepad and copy the following inside:
init python:
config.keymap['director'].remove('noshift_K_d')
config.keymap['developer'].remove('shift_K_d')Then save it under any name with a .rpy extension and drop it anywhere in your 'game/' folder.
If this is a common problem, though, let me know and I can remove those shortcuts from the game entirely.
You can learn more about Ren'Py native shortcuts (and how to change them) here (https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/keymap.html).
Thanks for the help, I enjoy the shortcuts because it helps cut down the amount of clicks needed to navigate through all the menus.
I would actually hope you would be able to implement more keyboard shortcuts in the future, as I like to go quickly back and forth between all the girl "interaction" menus.

Hi there, take these suggestions with a grain of salt.
I just started to play recently and have exclusively played on the hardest mode with the wizard class.
Only list of shortcuts I have seen for the games are on the "ReadMe" file in the game folder.
(Ordered in what I would want the most)
1. Shortcut keys that could each lead to a girl's interaction page. (Seems super difficult to implement)
2. Key that skips all of the End day stuff. (revenue, reputation gain/losss, etc.)
3. Shortcut to the Resource Exchange Market.
4. Key to the Brohtel Customer Details Screen.
Quote from: turbotator on Dec 05, 2022, 08:57 PM2. Key that skips all of the End day stuff. (revenue, reputation gain/losss, etc.)
For this go into the Game settings. Search for the Show/skip night events and turn everything off.
Quote from: turbotator on Dec 05, 2022, 08:57 PM1. Shortcut keys that could each lead to a girl's interaction page. (Seems super difficult to implement)
"I" with a selected girl, then you can navigate from girl to girl with arrow keys, staying in the interaction menu.
Quote from: turbotator on Dec 05, 2022, 08:57 PM2. Key that skips all of the End day stuff. (revenue, reputation gain/losss, etc.)
Either game options or hold ctrl (stops on match making and result though).

Well, this is a bit too vague unfortunately: obviously a single shortcut per girl is not going to work (not enough keyboard keys!), and implementing a search bar is unlikely to be much faster than point and click. Perhaps what you are talking about is a kind of bookmark system? But then how many girls would you like to be able to bookmark at any given time? 3?
Quote2. Key that skips all of the End day stuff. (revenue, reputation gain/losss, etc.)
No need for a key, there is already an option for that in the game settings. Otherwise, the 'ctrl' key lets you skip.
Quote3. Shortcut to the Resource Exchange Market.
4. Key to the Brohtel Customer Details Screen.
These can be done without too much trouble. Could be 'r' for
resources and 'o' for customer
options.

I was wondering if there is an advantage to whoring the girls out rather than them working their "normal" jobs (waitress, dancer etc). The goal seems to be to train them so they can perform those acts but I don't see any advantages to that, matter of fact they can entertain fewer guests when whoring then lets say working as a waitress. Thank you guys for your replies in advance!

In early game, there is no advantage, your girls won't even accept working as whores and they are bad at it, bringing you less money in and they need double the energy per guest, evening it out with normal jobs. You need to train them at least until their perference is high enough and extra training raises their skill, but working does too. However, there is a limit to how many guests can be entertained in normal jobs and later whoring brings you more money in, not only per guest, but overall. It's even more true for bisexual and group acts. For the best satisfaction, you need both normal jobs and whores. Experiment with training and jobs, read through the perks and choose what you find best. Half the fun is finding the winning strategy.
2 questions:
1. Why in group sex (apparently bisexual too) blocked clients are served by girl?
2. How does the client budget work in general? Especially after the board is built, with the increase in chapters, the "client's budget" figure only grows(without much increase in brothel income). In chapter 7 only with royals, with maximum ads and everything for maximum money, game shows a total of more than 20000 on average budget for the client, but in reality he has about 5000 (which is still impossible to get completely at maximum difficulty with fully upgraded girl with maximum stats). Is something broken or is the game just showing wrong numbers?
I cant understand how rest work, sometimes i can put slaves on work at 50% of Energy, sometimes they sleep also full Energy (for 2-3 days... With max obedience and good Mood), i put them work but the rest hold aniway (not hurt or tired status)

1. Because of the way matches are generated, bisexual encounters only take into account the settings of the first girl. This is a limitation that will need to be addressed in the future.
2. Probably the latter. It would help if you can provide screenshots.
Thank you for your feedback!
Quote from: Goldo on Mar 03, 2023, 10:16 AM2. Probably the latter. It would help if you can provide screenshots
Through some tests everything turned out to be much more difficult. Tested in chapter 7 with all furniture and with fully pumped girls, at maximum difficulty. I only make money because I have completely pumped girls...
The work budget really increases, but the girl's tip DOES NOT GROW ;D
Without a board, the average budget of 1 client is 1500, after the board was built, the average budget became 3300, but the girl began to receive same amount as before board was built.
That is, the total budget of the client does not play a role in the calculation only basic budget values ��specified in the client.
In model perk branch, last perk increases the client's budget + 100%(same with whore budget in adjacent perk branch), that is, girl's tip does not grow, but only client's wallet grows = money grows that you will never receive... What kind of nonsense? My game broken? ::)
Tip whore also raises questions why does she get 1000-1500 if the client has "11000" in her pocket? That is, in a normal job from 1 client, a girl receives 700-800 from a client, and a whore only 1000-1500, so why do clients have such huge wallets? that is, in my game, fully upgraded whores bring less money than ordinary workers. On my own screenshots, 10,000 from a whore versus 14,000-15,000 from a worker.
if a slut starts having group sex, she will lose the bonus from the perk for the only sex act. And in group sex pays 70% of the usual. And the girl spends a lot of energy on 1 group sex, like an ordinary worker spends on half the work. The game is definitely broken in this case.
I noticed this when I started playing with the traits neronero mod. Princess from his mod, which should bring a huge income due to its trait, has + 400% to unkeep in it, does not pay for itself at all even if it works every day... it's rough to compare 15000 per day unkeep at S rank(for tests i disabled mods).

To me it sounds like the game is working as intended, but I do agree that the whole thing can be a bit confusing. I think it makes a lot of sense to assume that customers with a bigger budget would be inclined to tip better, especially when they enjoy the service.
But I think "customer budgets" were first introduced to balance (= reduce) excessive tips, so I'm curious to hear Goldo's take on that.

Just like the board, the trait doesn't increase tips, only wallet sizes.
The main way in which Princess is intended to bring in a huge income, is through the "valuation +1000" part of this trait: By buying her when she's low rank and then selling her as soon as possible when she's high rank.

Quote from: neronero on Mar 05, 2023, 07:42 PMTo me it sounds like the game is working as intended, but I do agree that the whole thing can be a bit confusing. I think it makes a lot of sense to assume that customers with a bigger budget would be inclined to tip better, especially when they enjoy the service.
But I think "customer budgets" were first introduced to balance (= reduce) excessive tips, so I'm curious to hear Goldo's take on that.
Whore who can serve let's say 5 people a night is easier to put on a weapon, let her serve only the craziest with 0 brothel protection and beating even one with such a situation, she will take more money than she receives from all the clients together, this is very illogical.
According to the same logic, it is worth putting the client's wallet to the minimum value, girls will take all money from clients, but there will be just a huge number of clients that they will not be able to serve, which will drastically lower the reputation (which only affects the number of clients = practically useless).
That is, the board in its current form completely becomes obsolete after 1-2 chapters after construction, beating and knocking out customers' money is much more profitable than serving

I tested and the maximum sale price of the princess was (with in demand) 1.2 million gold at rank S ;D
It was all about the fact that the "balance" is not when you with a fully built brothel with fully pumped girls in 1 month of the game (+ 25% income) have 500,000 taxes in 2 weeks, that is, more than you actually earned ;D
In this case, everyone needs a fox branch, as it is the most profitable. Also a branch of a slut with her semi-work. Also, courtesan branch for customer service is very profitable. Escort is useful because of the last perk. Also player branch tip increase perk due to nudity. Rest are just useless. Except probably last perk of bride (I don't know how it works) can you explain?

Wow, a gutsy new strategy ;D - maybe future versions of Trait King should lean into this and make "Warrior"/"Wild"/"Rowdy" girls actively look for more fights with customers.
Why would that make the advertising board obsolete though? Increasing the wallets means there's more to steal, right?
Mechanics aren't my strong suit, so perhaps other players will have valid reasons to disagree with this... But I wouldn't mind if some of the mechanics-managing was simplified for the player. Eg: Don't manually choose which customer types show up, but automatically decide on a mix based on some combination of the brothel/girl's reputation, the month, the advertising billboard's slider. Same for customer budgets.

The last perk of Bride adds +100% to the girl's tips, which is really strong, BUT it only works on girls that also have the "Virgin" trait.

Through some tests everything turned out to be much more difficult. Tested in chapter 7 with all furniture and with fully pumped girls, at maximum difficulty. I only make money because I have completely pumped girls...
The work budget really increases, but the girl's tip DOES NOT GROW ;D
Without a board, the average budget of 1 client is 1500, after the board was built, the average budget became 3300, but the girl began to receive same amount as before board was built.
That is, the total budget of the client does not play a role in the calculation only basic budget values ��specified in the client.
Okay, I think what is happening is a combination of the following:
- Customer budget is not the same as tip, it is the theoretical maximum a customer is willing to pay.
- Your girl's tip is based on her skills, performance
and game difficulty. It is calculated differently than the theoretical budget.
- You are playing at the highest difficulty level, but
customer budgets do not change based on difficulty, and they are balanced for normal difficulty. In other words, you may be unable to hit the maximum budget because the difficulty level reduces your girl's income too much.
- This means that to min-max things you might be better off
reducing the total budget buffs such as advertising to save some money, and perhaps switch to a strategy of serving more customers or use creative exploits like mugging customers for their wallets.
The simplest fix here would be to add a parameter to reduce customer budgets according to game difficulty, so that it is more in line with the highest difficulty settings. For now I'm not sure how big the problem is, but if I get a little more player feedback on this I may implement that change.
It's clear about the client's wallet and tip.
"bisexual bonus" : 0.85, # Applies to each girl
"group bonus" : 0.75, # Applies to each customer
If a girl receives from 1 client let's say 100, 2 girls bisexual will receive 170(170%) and spend a little less energy. If I understand correctly, stats of only one girl are taken into account, and 2 just goes like ballast. Which is very interesting in terms of the fact that a girl who is not pumped may not bring income at all and so it will bring profit... or not?
Group sex has a modifier of 0.75 from the client, that is, the minimum 1.5 (150%) or 2.25 (225%) in this regard, the girl would receive 150 and 225 (if you forget that during group sex customer service lock not working and tip spread between different clients is very large)and will spend 2-3 times more energy than a regular sex act(not critical at higher levels).
And then we remember about the escort perk for + 25% tip if only 1 sex act is active. That is, from a regular sex act, a girl will receive 125 and spend the base value of energy.
That is, you can calculate that the usual "sex" as an act spends 9 energy and a girl can serve 4 clients a night. Assuming that the base chance is 50% for bisexual/group sex and specific perks give +50% to chance (as I understand it, 75% in total):
1. it turns out if there is a useless whore who has 3 client slots and pumped bisexuality. Pumped whore will get 3 bisexual clients and 1 regular, will receive:
3*170+100=610 and spend 9+9*3*0.6(?)(25) energy. 2 whore will not receive anything, but will only spend 16 energy.
2. Group sex, let's say two groups of 2 and one group of 3 clients:
2*170+225+100=665 and spend 9+9*7=72 energy.
3. 4*125=500 and spend 36 energy.
Let's take 28 days (a month) for calculation, knowing that on the day of rest the girl receives 50 energy and has 150 energy in total(max B rank):
1.25 spent 50 recovered 2 to 1, 9 cycles+1 work day=19*610=11590 gold. Unkeep girl lvl 10 110 gold*28=3080+unkeep additional girl (let's say 2 times less) 1540=4620. 6970 profit.
2. 2 working days will spend 144 and 3 days of rest will restore 150. 2 to 3, 5 cycles and 2 working days + 1 rest or 1 working day and 2 rest(1 to 2) what so what will happen 10 working days. 10*665=6650, unkeep 3080=3570 profit.
3. 4 working days and 3 rest days, 4 cycles, 16 work day=16*500=8000, unkeep 3080=4920 profit.
Group sex is not profitable at all on low level, at high levels energy costs are less and customers are much more.
If you have 2 pumped girls, it's easier for them to have a regular single sex act with a bonus than to get a small increase in profits from bisexual sex. Increase of only 41% to the usual single sex act. That is, everything loses in this case to the usual basic single sex act with a perk(even if you pump the last perk in the escort branch(3% per customer to tip), group sex will give less income than just single with perk +25%.
In fact, group sex or bisexual in these conditions are not needed in game...

It's a bit more complex than that. Skills are averaged for both girls during performance and perks for both girls apply (unless they don't make sense), but during matchmaking customers are chosen for the first girl only, and then a second suitable girl is searched for
if a bisexual event procs. Because of this workflow, the customer preferences of girl #2 are not taken into account.

Perhaps that is not clear from the perk description, but the 'Focus' perk requires only one of the four base sex acts (service, sex, anal, fetish) to be activated. You
can activate group or bisexual on top of that with no penalty.

The girl can be anywhere in any region. It's not even a fact that she is in one place and does not move. If you are even in Act 2, there is no point in looking for it yourself. Too many places for her to be, much easier just to pay some money to city guards.

The girl will pop up in any location appropriate for the chapter, but she will not move until she is confronted by the player. A couple of things could be preventing you from finding her:
- Other story events happening when you visit the city (regular city events have a lesser priority so they shouldn't interfere)
- The chapter location being locked up by the story, such as

With the vanilla game you cant. But with the Trait King mod you can turn the free girls into permanent slave for some money. (That event happens randomly)
Hi guys
Please explain the mechanics of mood. What does it affect, why should i keep it positive. I've only been playing for a few days, and always set the minimum upkeep value because on the max difficulty at the beginning there is not enough money. The mood of the girls is abyssmal, and i don't understand what are the penalties for bad mood

If the girl mood is low, then there will be higher chance that she refuse to work or escape from your brothel.
So I've noticed that some girl packs have images labeled as "pregnant." Is there a pregnancy mechanic in the game or is this just a simple image label?
Quote from: gork5 on May 18, 2023, 01:43 PMSo I've noticed that some girl packs have images labeled as "pregnant." Is there a pregnancy mechanic in the game or is this just a simple image label?
There is no pregnancy in-game for the foreseeable future. Girlpack makers have included it in the hopes that someone makes a mod or that other games featuring pregnancies are made compatible with the girlpack system, but AFAIK none exists today.
Hello!
Perhaps it is just a weird coincidence in my playthrough, but could it be that the fetish act earns more money than all the other sex acts in the game?

Your earnings depend on a combination of lots of different factors. One of those is the tip_act_modifier:
tip_act_modifier = {
"anal" : 1.15,
"sex" : 1.1,
"service" : 1.05,
"fetish" : 1.2,
"waitress" : 1.0,
"dancer" : 1.0,
"masseuse" : 1.0,
"geisha" : 1.0,
"naked bonus" : 1.05, # Bonus for when the girl is working naked (not whoring).
"bisexual bonus" : 0.85, # Applies to each girl
"group bonus" : 0.75, # Applies to each customer
}Fetish tips do get the biggest modifier here, but there are a lot of other things to keep in mind, eg:
- Compared to other acts, fetish acts aren't as popular among customers. It's not everyone's cup of tea.
- The modifier of Bisexual and group acts is per customer, so the returns may become higher in total
Maybe a stupid question, but If you have a girl in a savegame and update or add a BK.ini, imagine i have the clone, then i sell it, the next time i encounter the girl, will she have the BK.ini settings updated?

Didnt tryed it so far. But you can try it by selling the girl and refreshing the slave market with the king's way mod until you get her again.

Chris12 changed the way girl init works but my understanding is the update is done every time you start the game, so a restart is probably needed but otherwise it should work. However, any previously generated girl will not change her starting attributes such as traits or sexual preferences dynamically, as it is done on girl creation. New clones, however, will have the new parameters.
I know fear in particular doesn't affect gameplay as much as other elements, but how would I go about modifying the game files so that it's a bit easier to manipulate? I find it rather difficult to get it lower even with a personality that makes it easier.

4. how bride tree perk Leading by Example work?
5. courtesan tree perk Warm welcome what is +50% to half-shift resting bonus?

1. increasing the mood of your girl (she becamme more happier and dont want to escape)
2. it's increasing the rate how much point's you gain (for example during work she gain 10 but because of this she get 1 more extra)
3. she becamme more luckier and fail at work less often (good for girls with unlucky trait) and it's means what it's means it's dosnt stack with other items or perks
4. she pretty much becamme a mentor/teacher for other girl's (give's +1 point to a random stat for a random girl)
5. when she works half-shift she recovers faster (example she get 30 energy when resting after work but with this she get 45)
6. it's give's extra exp and jp point's for the girls who are not working and it's still works even after they are max level it's just that it's dosnt change anything
I am trying to figure out how to increase the number of Girls that can work in each of the "Common Rooms" such as the Tavern or Okiya. I have found that I can modify the total number of serviceable customers by modifying BKinit_variables.rpy:
room_capacity_dict = {0 : 4, 1 : 4, 2 : 6, 3 : 8, 4 : 10, 5 : 12, 6 : 14, 7 : 16}
By modifying the number after each colon it seems to change the number of serviceable customers at various stages in the game. While this is useful, it isn't my goal.
I figure that if I were the owner of a tavern, even a run down cheap tavern, I could fit a few folks in there before it would get crowded. At stage 1 there's a total of 5 people (4 customers and 1 girl) in any individual Common Room which seems small to me. That's basically a single table of 4 in a tavern as the maximum number/size of tables.
Anyway, if I could either modify the number of upgrade levels for the Common Rooms or the number of workers per upgrade level in the Common Rooms, that would be ideal.

They gloss over the specifics in the storyline, but you can fold spacetime and magically fit an infinite amount of girls in each job-room from the very beginning. Where did you ever run into a limit, because it's news to me :o each customer can only be served once though

I only want to modify the number of workers (higher or lower) in each room, not produce an extra-dimensional geometry within the walls of the building to recreate the infinite hotel paradox as an experiment. Specifically I'd like to both be able to modify the number of upgrades at each brothel level and the number of workers at each upgrade in each Common Room independently. I'm just not certain where those variables are stored and thought, "Why not ask if someone has some knowledge on the question rather than spend hours testing every variable to see where it might be?"
Edit: I'm not sure if you were being sarcastic or if you didn't know about the limit on the number of workers in each Common Room. Either way, any tips would be a great help. If the answer is to create a new mod and define some new parameters, so be it. I noticed that the mod,
Chris' Job Mod, makes some changes to the number of serviceable customers, so it gave me the idea that the parameter for workers might be something I could play with.
Sorry if my reply seemed a bit snarky. I'm genuinely unaware of any limit to how many girls you can fit into the common rooms. You choose how many girls are in each room by assigning them jobs, and as far as I know there are no limits to how many times you assign certain jobs. It's not optimal to focus on one job due to customer-limits, but that's besides the point.
I even tested it in a beginning brothel to make sure, making all 4 of my girls waitresses seemed to work fine. Granted, only the first two actually had work to do, because I could only seat 4 tavern-customers. The simplest way to fix that would be by editing the customer-limits.
One thing that could be an interesting addition to working hours, is a screen that shows "Girl X was assigned to work as a waitress, but she was unable to do so as all the customers in the tavern were already attended to."
Currently if a girl is working as a certain job, but doesn't have any customers to serve, she's completely ignored. I can see how that could lead to confusion as to why she didn't appear to be working. edit: Actually, she's not completely ignored, she just appears to be resting.

I did some testing and it turns out it's my fault anyway so no worries. I started a fresh game and as you said, there's a limitless capacity for girls to attend to guests.
Edit: Your theory is correct in that I was noticing girls resting when they should have been working because of the number of girls I had working in particular jobs. Per usual I went for the complicated explanation and started rummaging through .rpy variables rather than taking some time for simple observation.
This does get me thinking that there is a somewhat unrealistic expectation for the number of workers. So in my
complete lack of experience in such matters I have it in mind to create a mod that adds "Tables" to the tavern, only so many waitresses can attend a table, the tables get larger as the brothel levels advance, and other Common Rooms would get their own similar workstations.
The dancers could get "Platforms", the masseuse could get a "Massage Table", and the Okiya could get "Private Rooms" (or something).
Perhaps there's a "Counter Space", or "Hot Spring Area" which allows for a bonus number of workers based on the brothel level + the selected location. That could add a strategic element to the choice of location besides the free starting Common Room.
If each workstation started at 4 customers at the basic level, and each brothel level could upgrade a number of workstations in each Common Room, then that might achieve the kind of balancing I originally (and in error) had in mind. Obviously different workstations would be different. A massage table can only service a single customer (unless you're thinking of some kinky situation), a private room ideally doesn't have too many customers inside, and a dancing platform can provide for the viewing pleasure of a large numbers of customers.
I will need to think on the balance of such things, and of course this does nothing but add more challenge to the game, so maybe some rewards are an order as well.

what if the girl's skills (for example, charisma) will affect how much energy she spends on customer, and not on the number of customers? this all requires a lot of work on the balance, but it solves the problem when you served 30 customers out of 230 overnight
Quote from: bremul on Feb 26, 2023, 12:25 PMQuote from: Finisky on Feb 26, 2023, 01:27 AMI was wondering if there is an advantage to whoring the girls out rather than them working their "normal" jobs (waitress, dancer etc). The goal seems to be to train them so they can perform those acts but I don't see any advantages to that, matter of fact they can entertain fewer guests when whoring then lets say working as a waitress. Thank you guys for your replies in advance!
In early game, there is no advantage, your girls won't even accept working as whores and they are bad at it, bringing you less money in and they need double the energy per guest, evening it out with normal jobs. You need to train them at least until their preference is high enough and extra training raises their skill, but working does too. However, there is a limit to how many guests can be entertained in normal jobs and later whoring brings you more money in, not only per guest, but overall. It's even more true for bisexual and group acts. For the best satisfaction, you need both normal jobs and whores. Experiment with training and jobs, read through the perks and choose what you find best. Half the fun is finding the winning strategy.
Thank you! Sorry for the late reply. I will probably download the game soon and I *knew* I asked this question. So a combination of both seems to be good :)
Also, I was wondering if there is any difference between treating them very bad with fear/hate as opposed to love/safety? Do they behave differently?
Question about training to remove a negative fixation. Is it similar to using magic to train as in, gently uses positive feelings and roughly uses negative feelings?

If I'm not mistaken that is chosen by random, sometimes, for one girl and one negative fixation on one particular day the gentle approach works, tomorrow it's going to be "normal" or "rough". Someone please correct me if I'm wrong :)

How removing fixations work
Here is how it works:
- 'positive' approach grants you a bonus according to her love and mood. Use it if both are high.
- 'neutral' approach gives you a flat chance of success. Use it if none of her feelings are high.
- 'negative' approach grants you a higher base chance of success and a bonus according to her fear. However, you have a small chance of locking her negative fixation for good. Use it if fear is high and you're feeling lucky.
Hello everyone, it's my first time here.
I'd like to ask a question about the "date" tag: is it an active, working feature in the game, or not?
Thank you in advance, and sorry if I posted this in the wrong section.

The pic's tagged with "date" are only shows up when you recruit girls from the city or when the girl is working as a geisha.(most often when you dont have enough pic's for it)
How does the tax lady function? Now that i am making decent money with A rank girls, the payments are starting to feel egregious. Do they just go up linearly, or are they a % of what you've made that they expect you to keep on hand?

It's calculated from how long you stay in 1 district and how much money you have.

*not based on how much you have, but on how much you've made in the past month. You can be sitting on a pile of money, as long as it's
old money.
There's a progressive tax system with various tax brackets and tax rates
0% if you make almost no money, 50% of your income is insane (+128000 per day on average)
And then on top of that tax bracket it scales up with other factors:
- Up to 20% extra based on which district you're in
- Up to 20% extra based on your chosen difficulty setting
- Up to 20% extra for staying in one district for a long while
- The value is adjusted by a random modifier between -25% to +25% and the amount owed will never be higher than 95% or lower than 0% of your income.

Does the taxation take into account Quest rewards, town events and item sales ?
Or is the income based only on the night events (jobs and whores) ?
Edit : Can the taxation dialogue be changed from "You have to pay xxx on the 1st of next month." to "Since you earned yyy this month, you have to pay xxx on the 1st of next month." ?
Edit2 : I made a quick search in the code, and it seems like the taxable amount only depends on the brothel's performance at the end of each day. So if you want to make some extra money that is not taken away by the evil financial officer, then better do some quests, town events or train+sell girls.
Also if that is the case and you are submitted to the highest tax possible (95%, especially achievable on higher difficulties), 1000 gold from a quest will be as much net gold as 20000 gold from a working girl. Gives some value to doing the quests each week
What is JP?
What is the "virgin tip" and "Virgin rep" mentioned in the final ability for the bride zodiac sign?
I assume there's some tip modifier if the girl is a virgin?
Does this mean the final rank is useless on girls that don't have the virgin trait?

Hello!
Is there an option to prevent original girls from generating?

Just delete the _Bk.ini file in the girlpack folder and you can get a bunch of clones with different name. If you load a saved file they will stay there for a peroid of time.

Is there an option to prevent original girls from generating?
No there isn't. The fastest way to disable original girls from generating would be to look for this part of the code in BKgirlclass.rpy around line 154:
if force_original:
self.original = "forced original"
elif self.init_dict["cloning options/unique"]:
self.original = "unique"
elif self.free and dice(100)<=15 and not self.count_occurences("all", original=True):
self.original = "random free"
elif not free and dice(100)<=5 and not self.count_occurences("all", original=True):
self.original = "random slave"
else:
self.original = Falseand replace the whole block with this:
self.original = False

Question:
1. Is there a way to possibly increase the amount of love a girl has? Tried various ways such as giving gifts/talking and other things but it seems to be locked at a certain level.
(I use the Augment mod and saw that some of the girls are stuck at 50 with -50 fear) example.
2. Is the tax lady trainer only works after the first tax season? I noticed that the tax lady did her job with the end day report of "Perks or etc: $#" for a while but lately it doesn't show up on the end report anymore.
3. How does one increase / improve the girls sanity?
Is there a way to fix it or is she generally not helpful after a bit.

1.I think
@Goldo is thinking about switching from -100/100 to -1000/1000 for better relationship scaling,
augment mod: you might have to find more in-dept info about in the mod, you can open up notepad and find some info about it
2.She finished her job, if you want her to appear more, is either you going in debt or unlock the final chapter where you can choose to get a loan from them
3.I think you meant by mood (maybe mix with obedience/constitution/fear), there's no sanity meter as far as I known
mood: is she happy or not
obedience: how much she obeys you
constitution: how much she'll work
fear: is she afraid of you?
sex experience: how likely that she opened for sexual activity
all these stat above maybe what you could call a sanity meter

1. After popular request a while ago Love is capped at +25/-25 per rank for slave girls, up to a maximum of +/-125. Rank up your girl to keep progressing.
2. Normally, starting from Chapter 2 the tax lady (not the banker, a different character) shows up every two weeks, once to announce the amount of the monthly payment and once to collect. There are then events that can happen after the player reaches 100,000 denars in taxes or more.
If you don't see the tax lady, then this is very likely a bug, please report it. This would mean you no longer pay taxes though, so you probably would have noticed?
3. In general, Sanity is a
currency with limited supply that will eventually run out if you push it. The object of this is twofold: Encourage evil players to 'milk' some girls for powers and then discard them (consistent with an evil slaver playthrough), and avoid crazy scaling of some powers on a single girl that would be too OP otherwise. With that said, there are a couple of ways to increase Sanity:
- Ranking up provides 5-18 extra sanity, depending on luck and personality.
- Sending a girl to the lunatic asylum has a 60% chance of refunding a small amount of sanity (2-12). This is a last resort if you don't want to lose the girl's mind permanently, so you shouldn't rely on that.
- Some effects also reduce Sanity loss.

My apologies that I didn't specify the tax lady. I meant when you use her as an assistant in the no quest mode. Since, when you use her as an assistant; it's supposedly help reduce the amount of tax you would have to pay. But it's quite difficult to accurately tell if it's actually working or not.
Also, thank you very much answering my questions on the other part. Shame that there's no way to fix sanity since it kind of bugs me when the girls are doing well but have the "Frail" on the sanity.

Ok sorry, it's working but what happens is that the tax lady applies the discount to the income amount behind the scene, so if you calculate your savings based on the net income she announces to you, you will think there is no change. I will change that to make it clearer.
As for sanity, it's a good point. Sanity is for farm powers but it is not obvious for new players; I will make it an option to display it outside of the farm screen and disable it by default.
