Guess this is as good a bug thread as any-- in 0.41 during the party scene with Stephanie: [code] I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred. While running game code: File "game/script.rpy", line 11239, in script steph "My pleasure, [inputname]. We should do it again some time."

Yep, Fraekke has the solution. It's been fixed and will be pushed out with 0.5.

Vren: The Steph party event is initiated to have 5 levels (line 817) but you use 6 different levels (0 through 5). Everyone else: Temporary D-I-Y fix: If you're starting a new game you can change the number 5 to 6 in line 817. I don't think this will work for save games though. An easy but dirty fix is to simply search for steph_party_event_object. everywhere it says 5 in a parenthesis you can simply change to 4. As far as I can see it should just be lines 11510 and 11511.

Occurs after Stephanie's party scene, right when it is increasing her influence.

Still getting this in the latest version of the code: [code] I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred. While running game code: File "game/script.rpy", line 11511, in script $steph_party_event_object.inc_level(5) File "game/script.rpy", line 11511, in <module> $steph_party_event_object.inc_level(5) File "game/script.rpy", line 680, in inc_level self.levelArray[level] += 1 ##should record how often each choice was taken. Might be bugged, and isn't used anyways. IndexError: list index out of range Windows-8-6.2.9200 Ren'Py 6.99.11.1749 Lab Rats 0.4.1a [/code]</module>

That was an issue I thought I had caught, but apparently it slipped through. It's been fixed (hopefully) and will be pushed out in v0.5.

As far as I can see "Ask about your new serum research" still checks for RED serum. Did you miss this one Vren, or are we supposed to get this far without the red in order to not miss out on purple?

I imagine that is where mom's hub scene (similar to what Lily has when visited in her room) will go when it is implemented.

SteelPaladin1997

Assuming everything is working correctly, purple serums should lower your influence with a girl temporarily by 15, but halve any resistance gain by them. As for the second question, I'm not sure exactly how it'll be done yet. That'll have to wait for another update (perhaps 0.6?)

Vren

We need something more than"chat with mom" in evenings/weekends when score is high

Good idea to keep the work short and tied. Suggest separating ending to "school", "home" and "bonus". Which means three scenes would be needed, S1: What happen to lab, S2: What happen at home, and S3: bonus for perfect ending. Putting major topic away, I do believe many would still ask for more of this project, and there could be two routes to continue developing this project. First, extending current game, more girls, more scenes. Second, Lab Rats II, continuous of the story after summer vacation. It would be a good time to talk about future planning, with the ending to the game arriving.

I love the idea of different short story endings that depend on your score with each of the girls... that would definitely be my preference. LOL!

The Riddikk

Search around the files, you can edit the amount of days before the "ending" happens. You can have over 1000 days.

Omnikuken

You can edit the files to have ~infinite days

Omnikuken

Will you also add a walkthrough of some sort in the future?

ShoopDaWhoop

after lab rats will you make a lab rats sequale or a lab rats 2

robert story

More time for the game not only 120 days... and adding a scene when you talk with mom if you have a lot of score and if you have High score with lilly too make a treesome!!!

Hey I hate to ask this but can you reexplain how the purple serum's work. I tried using it and all it did was raise control by 1 and still raised resistance, did I use it wrong. Also how will you determine private/ public will that be up to us talking to them or certain actions?

Bob Bryan

Sounds like a good ending, leaving it as a sandbox may make it longer, not many people want to play games multiple times to hit all the paths, though it sounds like you started with that idea. Which is not bad, i personally don't mind playing around that way for games. The images you posted were really good, except the excessive tattoos on the sister, and I can't wait to see you implement those.

BleakLibrarian

Welcome back. The work you have done is really great. I hope that soon there will be more scenes with mom where you can give her the serum. QUESTION: Will Mom be what a private whore? I mean, she already takes money for sex.

i also recommend getting an ending were the game continues for as long as the player wants. for instance the sex den is a perfect example of this, just add reputable sex scene and fap away.

I love the concept of branching endings particularly with using the lab. An ending with scores high with every girl can lead to a big "private sex den" ending or a big public demonstration ending that's captured on Alexia's website

Shawn Dee

welcome back :)

Great news!!!!!!!!

Kravenar Games

First of all welcome back and congrats on getting a new part time job ;) Their are definitely a lot of things you can do for the ending, but personally I love the idea of walking into the lab or house and seeing Nora/Step or Mom/Sis or possibly Alexia with either group, having sex with each other and than just greeting you like that's normal. Etc.
