Whore Master 1.30.0 alpha r416

[Starry]

It seems to me like there are hidden stats affecting that.

that's why I try to make sure all the whoring girls have 4+ fetishes, the rest either get sold or work the other jobs.

This update includes several changes, mainly covered in my post here.

Please report any bugs that you come across over here, particularly if they're not job-related (jobs are still undergoing a lot of work). I'll try to hunt down and squash some of the various bugs, at least.

Is it just my imagination, or is training girls much, much slower in this version? I can have a building full of girls training for months on end and they still end up taking forever to train up - Constitution, especially, seems to rise slowly if at all. Or am I doing something wrong?

[Dagoth]

It does take time, particularly when you don't have any girls with significantly higher stats and skills training with the others; the amount gained by a girl largely depends on the amount the skills and stats of the others in her group are better than her own. One way to allay this is to use items to boost stats and skills on some girls, speeding the process up.
It was easier before because it was massively bugged, the main problem being that girls would get the benefit of training with every single girl in the training roster below her (which is why those towards the end of the list gained extremely slowly).

[necno]

Slower is better (to me anyway), the original idea when the game was first made was to have it as a really slow process. This adds to the challenge, but takes away from the game being able to be a "have a quick play" style of game.

[RyRain]

It also helps for you character to erm...work with one of the girls. That's why I'll be happy when you can use the lesbian/threesome/group options to get those skills up. Just wish service skills increased by 2 per like everything else instead of 1.

when will you release the next version? ^^ or do you aim for 1.31?

I think I'm holding up the show. I've got a handful of Lua functions to write before the mew scripting system can do everything the old one could, bugs allowing of course.

I'm getting them done at about one a night, so it shouldn't be much longer.

A guy takes a sip, then points to the can and says"Can't believe it's an alpha."

Thank you.

Should I woot for joy that it's almost done Doc?

Save the wooting until it is done, I think. Work and RL are both a bit active at the mo'.

That said, I made a start of the sex function last night. If I can get that done and something to update the player stats then it'll just about be ready. Some support for changing traits would be nice, too.

After that, pretty much any omission could be coded around. Of course, there's still the trigger mechanism to look at after that. And I want to let scripts interrogate the brothel and gang lists, but those can probably wait until the bugs are out of the basic stuff

You too, huh?

Heh, thanks.

Even with the new Lua script support, we can probably go ahead and move back to "beta" designation for the next release. It's gotten to be pretty stable now overall, I think.
