Mr. Anon21/Anon21-san...whichever you prefer (I assume you're male, I can't see a girl no matter how twisted uploading a my little pony pack...I don't mean that as an insult, I downloaded it and took a look through before deciding if I'd use it.)
That's a fair bet. I won't ask whether you did end up using it in the end or not. :-P
I have a couple questions before possibly breaking my saves again since I haven't had a chance to play in a while before my recent restart.
1. (Comment, not a question.) I completely understand the update, spelling and grammar can bother me...especially when repeated. You've made me hopeful for changes in the turn summary descriptions. Though I won't expect you to go out of your way and do extra work if you don't want to do it. The reason I understand is...the majority of my edits that I don't mention are when I notice my own grammar and spelling mistakes. I find that subject about myself to be too unreliable to comment when others' bug me though.
I've corrected the occasional event text, and I'm quite happy to change things that bug you if I agree that they're wrong. At some point I'll be changing most of the old event texts, though, so it might be worth waiting on that.
2. Do I only have to change it in saved games? Or do I also have to change it in item descriptions before loading my save. I like to give my torturer the incorporeal trait ASAP to avoid the crash if I accidentally forget to make sure the matron won't take her off duty. Also an incorporeal matron saves a lot of trouble in the long run.
3. Do I need to change it in girls who are not yet loaded into my game? i.e. A catacomb girl I haven't yet captured who has the trait, will it cause problems if I don't manually change the spelling before it happens? Or will it automatically be changed if/when that happens?
Yeah, you should do the item file too. Non-loaded girls as well. I recommend NotePad++ - it's really fast. Just open all the files and do a global replace.
That reminds me, when a trait for a random girl is set below 5% it seems to be broken; if you could do something about that you would have my gratitude. I would like to set traits @ 0 so they never appear on that particular random, but doing so seems to default to the random chance of it occurring. i.e. I would like to make the chance of random girls being sterile lower than 5.
I didn't know that. And (seeing as I've just made work for people using my mods) I'll totally make it a priority. Expect a relevant post sometime today.
On a general note, I am sorry when I do something that (intentionally, or otherwise) breaks save games or messes stuff up. But (for me) the nice thing about being an entirely unofficial update is that I can mess around with stuff without worrying too much. Ideally I'd like to see my changes being considered, cherry-picked, refined, tested and added to the official version. :P
