Growing Rivalry 4.12
Added 2023-10-02 07:09:37 +0000 UTCOkay. last round of bug fixes for this version hopefully!
-Fixed issue with Candi occasionally freezing the game.
- Fixed issue with some skills not doing damage (cause of a missing bracket)
- Fixed issue with some cards having incorrect descrptions
- Changed Astral Alignment (yes again...) to 5% current HP instead of 20.
- Changed First Aid (heals for 10 now)
- Changed some sequencing of some cards so they don't cause weird issues
- Cards that have Discard written first means it's a cost and will require that many cards in hand to activate.
- Increased damage of a few cards to bring up their overall power level
- Nerfed enemy skills a bit more.
- Fixed issue where the HP after the overgrowth feature would carry over causing characters to permanentely gain HP each time you fought them
- Fixed issue where giving height to your ally wouldn't actually do what it was supposed to
- Added the start of the ally betrayal system. (If they are much bigger than you, they don't ask for height. they will demand it instead. If you decline you will fight them. Winning will prevent the loss. Losing will cause it to be taken regardless)
- Fixed a few other issues that were floating around (Lily couldn't be talked to past stage 1, Maru could never be allied with as all her options caused negative relationship gain)
- Fixed issue with Lilith's shop causing a freeze
- Fixed some skills that were missing text display when used.
- Widened the buttons on the UI so misclicks are less likely.
and a few other things probably...
So!

Thanks for the support everyone! Hopefully this one is a little less buggy this time!
Time for some growing vengeance :D
EDIT:
Super sorry! Forgot I was testing stuff and didn't move the player back to the intro.
So, this should fix that params issue from moving to a map!

Gluttonous succubus is a very fun card. 10/10

2023-10-31 01:58:38 +0000 UTCYup, working on a google drive version currently. So I can edit it easier rather than upload a file every time.

2023-10-10 09:08:57 +0000 UTCWould you update the card list after many cards have been changed?

2023-10-10 09:04:58 +0000 UTCSo, variable 55 is for the display in battle. Changing it accomodate for 39 characters + bosses is tedious, so their height is fed into that variable. There’s a chance it’s just misaligned. 724 is the correct variable.
NickSav
2023-10-08 04:59:47 +0000 UTCI found Lilith's height randomly changed when I reloaded the same save file several times (from 230 cm to 788 cm at the beginning of the battle). Then I found the Troop check use variable 55 as her height, and Event use variable 724. Is this the reason?
Lee
2023-10-08 04:58:29 +0000 UTCHmm. So different ones each time. I’ll go through the code and make sure variables are being set correctly.

2023-10-04 12:38:58 +0000 UTCCandi, then change to Nyx, then change to Sapphira, or Julia. Usually this order.
Lee
2023-10-04 12:30:15 +0000 UTCNope all the same. What I will ask is who was your ally at the time? Was it the same person each time? Or different?
NickSav
2023-10-04 12:04:17 +0000 UTCNow I'm really confused. I believe I checked the height change during my last run. And I've played whole process about 10 or 20 times since version 3.0, and this was always 0. Is this possible? Or are there any runtime difference or something? Or some files is not the same version? I may try again, and maybe I want to try your save file if it still fails.

2023-10-04 11:54:20 +0000 UTChttps://imgur.com/5sEOIAJ Seems to work fine for me? You sure they grew overall? Cause if the net positive isn't above 0, it won't trigger it. My height before sleep was 498. It's now 517 which checks out So I think it's because they aren't winning enough or they aren't actually gaining height but going even or negative.

2023-10-04 10:20:42 +0000 UTCThe female cultist regen not disappearing is intended. its a permanent buff. basically she sacrifices them. her using the skill again is not intended however. it's meant to be once only. that lucia one is annoying as. the script is insanely long, ill see if i can find it though. oops. forgot to add the variable to it hmm. that's odd. and the sleep script not working is odd. When i tested it, both players gained height with no issues. But i will do some more testing to see if it does persist. oops,. ill change it now so i dont forget :P
NickSav
2023-10-04 09:03:56 +0000 UTCShe should sap your height each time. 3 times, then another 3. Then start casting oblivion over and over. But if you resolve a whole bunch of effects, it won’t trigger it if she dies before it triggers
NickSav
2023-10-04 08:56:13 +0000 UTCFinally I beat Lilith successfully. But she only transformed once (500 cm), then stayed at this form until defeated. I got Intimidating Aura*2, Demon Soldier*2 and Energy Generator*2. With some draw engine, like Reckless Greed, it goes into endless loop easily. It's very slow though. And during the fight with Lilith, Demon Soldier is the only damage dealer, and it's life steal, so I guess function setHp() won't trigger the conditions in RPGMaker.

2023-10-04 08:43:27 +0000 UTCSome new discovery... If one Female Cultist is killed, when Melanie trys to summon another again, nothing happens. And if Female Cultist gives regeneration to Melanie and is killed, the regeneration remains active permanently. And some old issue still exists... * Lucia still challenges Valeria twice. Maybe some branch still has duplicate check. * The second hit of Vorpal Double-Slash doesn't benefit from Vorpal Edge (variable 249). * For AllyDailyEvents, MC give height to Ally is fixed, but Ally give height MC still doesn't reduce Ally's height actually. * SleepEventAllyScript still always gives 0 cm to MC whether they grew during the day or not. (Maybe the reason is still variable 226.) * The description of Stomp is still x / 10.

2023-10-04 08:32:52 +0000 UTCEvery Girl has her personality, so what you have to do is : 1. Talk to the girl 2. They give a question or sentence 3. Give the correct answer (Think about their personality, Mystra example she doesn't care much about the contest) 4. do this few times with the same girl and eventually they ask if you would like to team up. If you have anymore questions feel free to ask, I myself are a lot more active in Nicks discord "https://discord.gg/Gdyf46vV"

2023-10-03 05:39:18 +0000 UTCNo question is stupid :P So all the characters on the standard roster (so no one that joins partway through), has an option called Talk. They’ll ask a question and you get to choose between 3 responses. One will increase their relationship stat, one will decrease it and the other will do nothing (the stat is hidden) At certain points (usually 5 or 7) points, when talking to them again, they’ll ask you if you want to team up. If you agreee, there’s your new ally. If you decline, it will reduce their stat by 100 (basically making unlikely to ally yourself with them again) Hope that helps!
NickSav
2023-10-03 05:33:11 +0000 UTCSo, maybe I just suck, but could I get an explanation as to how I can get an ally? Sorry for the stupid question.

2023-10-03 04:57:29 +0000 UTCThanks for the info!!!
SheikTheGeek
2023-10-03 02:01:59 +0000 UTCOnce you beat her and unlock the cultist cards, she will take the height still but nothing will happen. But perhaps something might one day :D And yeah, she’s a bundle of nerves :P go for the first option.
NickSav
2023-10-03 01:39:03 +0000 UTCDoes Lilith only do something when you buy Cultist cards? Havent even seen one one yet...not sure if thats a parameter that can be adjusted? Also trying to get Maru to party up is a pain because she's so nervous, I'm not sure what phrase she likes...
SheikTheGeek
2023-10-03 00:54:22 +0000 UTCNo worries. I figure not everyone has played tcg’s before :P No, sadly not. It’s doable but a logistic nightmare (space issues on screen mostly and then overlapping events) I’m going to leave it at one ally for now :)
NickSav
2023-10-02 14:23:17 +0000 UTCThanks for the clarification on discard vs effect! Very ez to understand now. Also, ally betrayal is a cool idea, I had that happen to me before when I partnered with Matilda late game when she was like over 1K feet tall and demanded height from me for being a pipsqueak, lol. Is there potential for an option to keep more than 1 ally on the future?
SheikTheGeek
2023-10-02 14:06:15 +0000 UTCIf it says Discard 1. Deal 6 damage (The discard is a cost and thus needs 1 card in hand at least) If it’s Deal 5 damage. Discard 1 card (The discard is an effect. And doesn’t require any cards in hand.)
NickSav
2023-10-02 10:22:30 +0000 UTCSo now card with discard in it can't be used if it is the only one in hand?
Vindath
2023-10-02 10:21:24 +0000 UTCit's uploading now. dont worry :D
NickSav
2023-10-02 08:48:18 +0000 UTCCurrently there is a issue with the going to the map : I and Nick are working on it. So no panic!
