Some sort of trait inheritance system would be good. I have been impregnating a lot of queens but none of my daughters are princesses.
I thought that was in there but I will check it again.
Of course, a bastard child of royalty is not always allowed title.
If marriage ever gets into the game, this will need to be improved on.
I have added special inheritance checks for Queen, Princess and Noble traits.
Children of Queens will have a 60% chance of being recognized as a Princess or a Noble.
Children of Princesses will have a 40% chance of being recognized as a Noble.

Some more changes to jobs.

- Several new traits can be gained from jobs, like Brawler or Strong.
- Pregnant girls get more tired when they fight in the arena, explore the catacombs or do other physically demanding jobs.
- Minor nerf/tweak to brothel jobs.

I don't like the formula of the brothel jobs too much (I know it's from the ancient times), to be honest. Right now Charisma, Beauty and Fame determine how many customers she can fuck. Then the same stats are used to determine how many customers she'll look for (and suceeds to attract).

The second one is (in part) a matter of appeal (maybe a better word for looks than looks?), so Charisma, Beauty and Fame are justified, but the first one sounds like a matter of Constitution to me (how many people she can fuck in a shift). Using the same stats for everything is meh too, and right now libido has no saying in anything.



I was thinking about adding a penalty to jobperformance for very high Tiredness (enough to get a warning). Yay or nay?


Edit - There was a problem in the brothel jobs with a parenthesis. Now it's fixed.

Instead of replacing the first zip file, make a new one with the new changes so I don't have to go over them all again.

Ok.

Just a few tweaks to the Cleaning job, and fixed the issue of the incestuous daughters.

Changed the way fame is gained in non-whoring jobs. Before it was +1 per shift, no matter she was awesome or injured half of the customers. Now it depends on jobperformance.
Plus a few other tweaks I don't remember right now.


Suggestions -  Pregnant fetish for customers, fast pregnancy and slow pregnancy traits. After all, it's a fantasy game.

I would sugest auction for virgins firs night. Now it's somehow wasted.


It would be also good if it was possible to eliminate other gangs (your competitors) either buy them or use money to bribe guards to destroy  or attack them or use your girls or gangs to eliminate them step by step.


It would be also nice to rebalance the incomes from different jobs aka whores are making too much in comparison with others (like when I send girl with maxed stats to shoot film, she makes about 15% of what she would get from whoring). I would advise to scale all jobs incomes much more according to girls stats.


And one last thing - how about Tournaments in Arena (either with only your girls or some kind of mix up)

I added in all but the WorkBarWhore.cpp and WorkSleazyBarmaid.cpp without many changes.
Those two had more changes so I will have to go over them more thoroughly later.
I have also started updating many of those jobs to get them more in line with the other jobs I had worked on.

Update:
I am getting way too carried away with updating WorkBarmaid.cpp
If all the other jobs need this much work, I will be busy for a while.

Most of the income for the studio is made when you actually make the movies from the scenes.
Each movie is sold for 35 turns so the more movies you make, the more money you get.
All the jobs will get updated as I get the time.

Ignore the WorkBarWhore, it shouldn't be there. It's the file I've been using for experimental purposes for whoring jobs and it's not even finished. It slipped in when I zipped the jobs.

Is it due to the brothel rewrite?

Not exactly.
I started adding the divisions like I did for the farm jobs and found a few areas that needed improvement.
A few of the new things:
Drinks Sold - based first on job performance then modified by several things
Drinks Wasted - from spills, customers not paying and free drinks
Combined number changes into variables for easier use

There are a lot of other things that I started to change but have not finished so I can't push it to github until it compiles properly.
My new job is taking a lot more of my time.

Hey everyone know I've been quite here lately but just been kept busy with work and such. But hoping to have time to code some soon.

I would sugest auction for virgins firs night. Now it's somehow wasted.
I've had this planned since day one of starting my mod. Just haven't figured out how to get it in game yet.
And one last thing - how about Tournaments in Arena (either with only your girls or some kind of mix up)
I've been working on trying to add a few new jobs to the arena for awhile. But again its just figuring out how I want them to be added in. Depending on what u mean by tournaments it might be what ur looking for.

And as far as the income for jobs goes whores should make the most by alot. But they might be making to much right now I agree.  But I've always thought it should go like this on pay scale.

Whore
A good dealer
Stripper/porn star
Peep/masseuse
Other jobs
That said whore should make 30-40% more I think and right now it does more then that I know but balancing the game right now seems a waste as for every new job or skill/stat or whatever we add it would need another balancing and that is just to much work I think. Now I could be wrong on this not the best coder or planner but that's my thoughts.

I got the jobs cleaned up and pushed them to github.
WorkBarmaid.cpp got the most updates.
Several others got some small updates, mostly variables renamed to match the farm jobs I did already.
I started breaking the code up into sections but didn't finish moving things around yet.

On the girl's first night thing:  Why not make that a scripted action?  I haven't really looked at triggers much, but is there a hook that will be activated when a virgin starts a job requiring sex?  If so, how would someone write a script that will be triggered correctly?  If not, make such a trigger and tell story designers how to access it.

And for that matter, anal virginity should also be an auctionable commodity...

Nothing major, just tied fame progression to base fame so fame-granting gear don't disrupt it.

I have no idea how feasible this would be, but would support for webm be possible?  Don't get me wrong, I'm over the moon about how you got gifs to work in the game, but making all these new gifs has really shown me the limitation of gifs.

For example, I made a gif and after trimming it and compressing and optimizing, the best I could do was 3.4mb.  However as a webm it's only 547k.

Like I said before, I'm ecstatic that you actually got gifs to work, but I am curious as to if webm's are possible.

Anything is possible(well, almost anything, President Trump is impossible)
I tried looking for someone who has made webm play with sdl but i didn't find much.
If you can find someone who has gotten webm to play with sdl, point me to it and I will see what I can do.
