Hello there! Sorry for being late as always. Today we're gonna talk about the new mission system, the shopping menu (WiP), the new equipment system, the graduation system (WiP) and several reworks. I hope you'll like it.

First take a look on the map, you’ll see I added the Pirate faction! I’ll explain later.

Mission Menu

Ok, the mission system : The pirates’ missions are available from the start but you’ll need to open embassies first to get access to other races’ missions.

A mission has :

A needed resource and an amount of that resource.
A specific reward and an amount of that reward.
A specific penalty and an amount of that penalty.
A generic reputation reward/penalty of 20/-20.

Missions will change the reputation you have with its race . Reputation will change the price of items and resources you can buy.

Missions are randomly generated for all races but pirates once a month. Any accepted missions need to be completed within 1 month. If not you’ll suffer the mission penalty. So you need to be careful when accepting one.

Pirates’ missions require the player to give up a girl for 6 months in exchange for some resources and reputation. After 6 month you’ll get the girl back.

Shopping Menu

Here we have the new shopping menu. You’ll be able to buy/sell basic resources such as nucleic acids and chemical compounds as well as milk you get from your girls (WiP). I'm planning on implementing a milking scene/minigame but that’s for later! And several items, piercings, crests and graffitis. A good reputation will decrease buying prices and increase selling prices. On the contrary, a bad reputation will increase buying prices and decrease prices.

Equipment Menu

Here you can see the new equipment menu. Each girl can only equip one underwear, one accessory and one crest at a time but she can equip several piercings or tattoos (WiP). Note that the items are player sided. To be able to equip an item on a girl you need to have an unequipped item available. Clients now have new fetishes and will like/dislike piercings, underwear etc…

Note that the visuals of the new items are WiP but I want to display them dynamically on the girls’ CGs. I’ll check that with Novさん later on.

Now for the rework :

You have now the possibility to use non-alphanumeric characters as player name.
Bonuses given by drugs were a flat bonus, they are now a daily buff.
Equipped drugs used to be free, they now cost a small amount of chemical compound each day.
I rework the localization script, language change should now work properly. If not, try to change the scene and come back.
And a ton of debugging...
