I though that was WM:EX issue? I haven't tried Aika's patch yet... do you have to send girls to work in bar before unlocking other jobs? I played one of the earlier Aika's versions, that was not the case.
Yes that is correct. I'm playing with 2.10 of akia's mod, not WM EX. The way unlocking jobs works as I understand it is as follows:
1. You must increase your brothel happiness by serving most of the customers you attract. You can get a poor view of this stat by watching your brothel reputation. Low means last turns happiness was less than 25, Medium means happiness was 26 - 74, and High means it was 75 - 100. This variable resists change somewhat, so it shouldn't fluctuate wildly from turn to turn. Customer service should reduce the penalty for unserviced customers, but I don't think it is doing that correctly.
2. After brothel happiness is >75, brothel fame will begin to increase. If I understand these mechanics correctly, then fame will increase by 1 per turn, unless brothel happiness is 100, which will get you 2 per turn.
3. You must then maintain brothel happiness until you reach the landmark fame values. Which are 20 (gambling hall available), 60 (sleazy bar available) and 90 (brothel available). You can get a poor view of how much fame your brothel has by watching the number of additional customers it attracts, which increases by 1 for every 4 fame.
The general rule of thumb is that if brothel reputation is high, you are gaining fame. So by keeping reputation high for long enough, and you can go from Barmaster to Whoremaster.
