Quote from: DarkFoxing on Oct 23, 2024, 07:15 AMGuys help please, what is the best value to set autorest to? I don't understand it, no matter what I put it on, it feels like the girl goes to "tired" one way or another, maybe there is some "best value"?

And does it make sense to give the "junk" to a junk scientist, or are they better sold to her? It's just that I've given her a lot of them already, and I don't see any use for them.

It's hard to gauge if you have group sex on since more groups make it hard to count how much energy she will spend that day. I forgot how high you can set it since I haven't played BK in awhile. But I go for around 40% or higher. Maybe can go lower if you don't have group sex on.

I usually just sell it to her. Cmiiw she will give extractors more often and unlock certain buildings faster if you gift it to her.

oo, okay, thx)

Quote from: Jman on Oct 23, 2024, 08:18 AMI don't think there's a 'best' value, especially since your girls get more energy as time goes on. I'd experiment, and if the girls still seem tired, increase the value by 5-10 until I get to a balance point.

...then again, I myself use a modified version that checks vitals before every interaction, even between two sex acts. So ~20 is plenty.

You should only give her stuff for free until you've unlocked the second tier of extractors. After that, there's no point. Extractors are restocked at random, and I have no idea what 'buildings' Deimos96 is talking about. Fox Thing with A Straw already has the autorest scanner, no?

yes, i have, thx)

After multiple playthroughs as a lvl 25 character on BK difficulty and 32 maxed S-rank girls, I have to ask the question:

What is autorest ? Since when does the game have such an option ? And where do I activate it ?

Autorest is a feature somewhat similar to the matron (not sure this was the exact term) job in Whoremaster: something or somebody that manages your girls' schedules for you to a limited degree. In BK's case, it's a piece of furniture that adds a small sub-screen to the scheduler that lets you specify an energy threshold. Girls who are not fully rested and whose energy is under that threshold will be taken off-shift and put to rest once you click 'End Day'. It's not quite an auto-scheduler, but it does help avoid exhaustion.

It was added in some version of 0.15, I believe.

To get it, you need to show Gina your love. Lots of it. And not the usual kind of love the MC likes to dish out, either.

what is the point of love and trust besides a boost to mood? have several former free girls that had their love levels drop to half and cant get back up after they became slaves and i don't really understand the mechanic.

Love is a somewhat hidden modifier (or penalty in case of hate) for a number of things: mood and free girl seduction, as you've noticed; hypnosis effectiveness depending on which option you use; willingness to participate in some activities (certain morning/night events, farm training); willingness to be personally trained (depending on which emotion is dominant); a boost to preference increases from any source (depending on dominant emotion); effectiveness of the 'lecture' interaction; success chance of fixation removal (depending on method); 'chat' interaction outcomes; which deflowering trait you get if you do it personally.

Fear/trust is similar (and overlaps love in several cases): mood; hypnosis; willingness to work nights; event participation (many are shared, some are not; fear is usually negative and the stronger modifier of the two in several cases; farm is positively affected by fear); willingness to be personally trained (if fear is dominant); bonus to preference increases (if fear is dominant); malus to lecturing; fixation removal (fear is stronger but riskier); deflowering traits; chance to run away.


Trust is the opposite of fear and hate is the opposite of love: what one boosts, the other weakens. But a lot of these checks depend on whether love or fear is dominant and a negative value is not, unless the other one is even more negative, e.g. a girl who trusts you but hates you even more (can you even get someone like that?)



Edit: As to the love loss, there are two explanations:

• Fluff: you just made your girlfriend into a sex slave! That just might have something to do with why she doesn't love you quite as much anymore.
• Crunch: at one time, maxing love off the bat was considered somewhat powerful. Probably because of its influence on working chance and lower upkeep via mood reduction? This was before my time, I think it was Chris who suggested the current scheme? So, love per rank got capped, just like many other stats are.
  

Quote from: Deadeye_7 on Oct 19, 2024, 06:54 PMHow do you alter the amount of brothel upgrades a brothel has? Like tavern level 2 on the first brothel? Or just a way to increase the amount of customers each room can take? using v0.2

For the latter, look for room_capacity_dict in BKinit_variables.rpy and edit values (this is for 0.3 but as far as I remember this should be the same for 0.2). For the former, this is hard-coded and more difficult to change.

Hey guys.

Couple of questions. I am struggling with a few questions lines and not sure if I'm at the end or if I have mucked up somewhere or the storylines are just not finished. Spoilers for those who haven't gotten that far.

1. Achievements - Is there anyway to see what achievements I don't have? Or even a hint on how to get some of them?

2. Haruka - I can't convince her to go in the heist together. Not sure what I'm missing as I've tried so many different combinations.

3. Scarlet - Is there anyway to sleep with her? I've once again tried a few things but always goes no where despite it seeming like she was keen.

4. Bast - anything happen after finding the note etc? Tried trading 500 resources and went no further. Also maybe slide or number to put in there would be lovely, clicking 500 times wasn't fun.

5. With new game + I can get every girl as a trainer. Is there a way to unlock some of these or is this exclusive to ng+ aka. ramias, bast etc

6. There is an achievement for "original girls" are they the ones with yellow names?

Thanks inn advance for the help!

• Doesn't look like it ever since the achievements screen got nuked together with the gallery. I guess your best bet is to read BKachievements.rpy.
  
• Not sure what you even mean. Isn't the heist a Narika thing? Is it about the sewer raid where you can trap her?
  
• You can, but I think it requires chapter 4 before it happens. She has a, let's say, magical mishap and one of the options to help her is exactly that. Kite80 also had a ruins adventure mostly plotted out, with a magical-ish blowjob and all, but I think it never got finished?
  
• You need a builder licence before you can blackmail her, I think? If you have that, you should be able to approach her with the letter... provided you still actually have it.
  
  OhWee's mod and Bonanza both had 10x resource buttons, but I guess that never made it into vanilla.
  
• I think the Suzume, Gizel and the Evenicle girls aren't unlockable in-game as trainers (yet?). I could have sworn Gizel was unlockable, but then I also thought the slavemarket girl was, and she isn't even a trainer in vanilla. Too much Bonanza on the brain, I guess. Bast definitely is unlockable.
  
• Yep, originals are the ones with coloured names and gold traits. Unless you use TK, then some rare clones can also get gold traits.
  

what is bonanza? i think i remember the term from waaaaay back, like before we changed sites, but i dont remember it, is it a mod?

Bonanza was my onetime mod/fork of 0.15. It's been more or less dead for years now, but my actual play experience is mostly with it.
