Lab Rats 2 v0.8.1 is Live!

OMG, silly me: I just had the "Amount of supply you would like to maintain" set too low!

Petechons

I'm still getting the issue I reported for 0.7, where my daily Supplies Procured tops out at 747 units, no matter how many people I hire for that department. I presume this is not an intentional feature of the game. (And until Vren gets around to fixing this bug, can anyone help me figure out a "cheat" to work around it?)

Petechons

when ever i try to change the production line i get this [code] I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

This is great! Unique characters and a storyline is the only thing LR2 was missing. Keep up the good work, I like how methodically and systematically you are tackling this project.

PC

Well, I actually managed to progress past the 3rd research event. There were "Select" buttons on the right side of the screen (though they were a little misaligned for whatever reason)

Bingbong

One last thing: I think it might be beneficial if there was a 'back' button in the outfit manager; It's not a huge thing, just a suggestion... For those times when you click it accidentally and aren't really into making one at that time. But this is minor :D I'd also like to state I'm only trying to bug report here; NOT AT ALL complaining.... I love this game and am having a blast watching it evolve. And yes, I'm one of the people who are SUPER pleased that this game is now being rendered in Daz instead of that honey select thing or whatever it was for LR1. No offense to anyone who preferred that; It's only my opinion. Thank you for the Daz renders!!!

Tim R Mercado

Ok, so I think I'm again stuck at the 3rd research event that gets you the futuristic stuff, the 7 slot serum. Now, you can talk to (at least Stephanie as head researcher, haven't tried with someone else) your Head Researcher and she will recognize when you have 3 candidates that meet the requirements. BUT. Without a button to actively choose each girl, or all of them or whatnot, I can't seem to progress beyond the screen that lists the 3 girls. They have blue highlighted name buttons on the left of the UI, but when you click those, you are only brought to the detailed information page for that girl and there is no further buttons to choose them; There is only the blue 'return' button that brings you back to the screen where you see your 3 candidates. So you just loop between these and can't progress. I just used the back button to back completely out of telling Stephanie I was ready, but I cannot progress now unfortunately, unless I am missing something and there is a way to select the girls that I don't see.

Tim R Mercado

Is it currently possible to impregnate any of the girls? If not, is that planned for the future?

So I applied the fix that _syntaxera_ gave us in a reply upthread. Game is totally playable now. But, when Steph has the event 'we've made a breakthrough!' and I go to choose someone to test the serum on, I only get to the employee screen with no button to actually choose an employee. So I have to use Renpy's back function to go back a few steps and tell her to finalize it, instead of test the serum on someone, because you can't choose a girl to test the serum on and thus you can't go forward. This is in no way gamebreaking, but it is a bit of a bummer lol.

Tim R Mercado

are the look of the girl gonna improve with time ? cause i find the girl from the first game are more beautiful and diverse than LR2

Start new company, day 1, assigned research focus and then went to order some supplies and got this: [code] I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

ajacksonian

People, lol... _syntaxera_ told you all how to fix that error just a few posts up in chat xD

Tim R Mercado

just tried 8.1 and get error right from the start... something"I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred/NameError: global name 'y' is not defined

Lotan

Now I know why I'm never making a game, I would never be able to put up with all the people who never read anything.

Getting 'Advance Research' is not very intuitive (spent about 20mins looking), for anyone stuck going into the Special Role Actions tab of your Head Researcher, will give a event to unlocking the next tier of research

Thrans

This version seems practically unplayable, as it seems like doing anything on the first action will produce an error. I tried researching or talking to Stephs.

Ok pretty much unplayable only get to research 2 things new list does not appear after first day steph no longer turns up i think that is main error but unsure it did not like the save from 7.1 so i deleted that folder the game 7.1 not the save ran a new game and got all these errors :( i should have kept old 7.1 so i could atleast grind and make money

i need the dev email can you send it to me please so i can copy all the errors for you guys ?

um i am getting 6 errors on first day try talking to steph error try researching error 7.1 didn't do this

Different model system, essentially can't be the same

One question, the Stephanie appeared was not the same model as in LR1, is that normal?

Shas'O Dal'yth Kauyon Kais Taku

I actually didn't recognize Stephanie at first. Would it be possible to get her model to be more similar to the first game?

Impossible to find and edit on Android. Update please

yeah, go into script.rpy, go to line 417 and change the y to 7

I'm getting the following error when doing any action, other than moving: [code] I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Also, now that I've made an account, is there going to be any way to see character's age apart from when hiring them?

script.rpy Line 417: if day % y == 5 or day % 7 == 6: #TODO: add support for expanding workdays should be day % 7 == 5

Regarding Stephenie's dialogue about the first game, I always liked to get the "Pregnant Harem" ending... is there a reference to that?
