Weekly News #117

So, another week and a half has passed since the release of the new version of the game and the latest weekly news, which means that it's time to re-tell what we have done in this short, but still significant period in terms of what has been done. So, let's start with the announcement - the time for the release of permanent bug fixes every day has come to an end. We have fixed most of the known and obvious bugs, especially since we planned to make all the available bug and error fixes. The plans can be seen below:

The last and final bugfix will be released during the release of version 943 to the public. There can be quite a lot of things in it, or only small and minor fixes - in the near future we will decide what to do with it. Well, now let's get down to something more obvious from «done» and «ready».

First, the game map of the city has been completely changed. It has become three times larger, it has a lot of different marks, as well as... Opportunities. Opportunities to expand the city, add new cities as needed, and in general, it became possible to work on filling the game world with much greater efficiency. In the near future, new locations will appear on this map that were previously only available in events, which means that new location interactions will also appear... Do you think that in the end it will be too difficult to find randomized NPCs by locations because of this? It's not worth worrying about. Each location is labeled with how many of these randomized NPCs it contains. Well, if there are problems with this, you should use the phone or... The new in-game interface.

Oddly enough, but it shows the location of the RNPC. There are many methods for sorting lists, and in general, this is a pretty good thing if your goal is not role-playing, but the desire to do something quickly and efficiently in terms of the same RNPC.

So the next thing is to refactor certain parts of the code so that they don't interfere with the logic of the game. For example, the system of "reactions" of randomized NPCs in the interaction menu with them - it was redesigned so that unnecessary reactions did not appear, reactions requiring certain conditions for the appearance, but they simply were not taken into account, and also ... New reactions were added. Reactions to the mechanics of inviting a randomized NPC to your place. The same applies to some other mechanics and systems, but more about them below.

Second, modifications. We started working on the framework and improving it in any way we can. Now these any ways are the ability to add your own markers to the in-game map using one function, as well as adding a folder for internal Python libraries, which can also be useful for creating these same modifications. At the moment, the current framework allows you to create a huge amount of potentially interesting things with a simple toolkit, and very soon we will release some kind of documentation on it, so now all that remains is to wait. Wait until we finish working on it. However, already now it is quite possible to work according to the example of mod1.rpy, which is located in the folder with modifications.

Thirdly, fixed bugs and shortcomings. Well, here, as always, we will manage the list.

 List of changes on BugFix1 for version 943a:

- A new window has been added to interact with the game interface/game. It is displayed in the player's diary, on the last page, and already in this window all randomized NPCs, your character's relationship with them, their location and some other information available to you are displayed.

As you can see, we continue our work, however, due to some suspensions in terms of work on content, the release of version 944 may be postponed by a week, which we will warn you about in the weekly news if this does happen. The nearest release date for the new version is July 27th. It will be known to her: either a version or weekly news will be released on this date. However, if this is weekly news, then a new version of 943c will be released along with it, so we will definitely not be left without content soon. In addition, you can still follow all the news in the game's discord channel.
