Investigation/Coercion system rework poll.
Added 2022-01-15 15:56:07 +0000 UTCHello everyone, I hope you had wonderful winter holidays!
Since I'm back home I worked to fix the save/load issue as well as the memory heavy loading process on the Admission menu.
Before when you clicked on the "Admission" button, the game was loading all the girls at the same time, provoking freezing problems on a couple of computers. I fixed the issue by "splitting" the loading by school year. The first time you open the Admission tab the game will only load the JC1 girls. The others girls will be loaded when you click on their respective school year tab on the left (check the screenshot if I'm unclear.)
Aye, now regarding the poll. Each girls has a variable called "GirlAvailability" and depending on that variable her portrait is Hidden or Visible. When you clicked on Admission you would see the girls' portrait of the ones you Investigated/Paid with money. But you would see a "?" on the others. It was a good enough system but know that I think about it it does make only little sense. As the director of the school you should be able to check all your student files and see their enrolment forms' picture.
With the new Investigation/Coercion system you can see the girl model as soons as you selected a girl and clicked on the Investigation/Coercion button on the right. Whether the girl is Hidden or Visible is unrelated. You will be able to see the girl in her underwear once you unlocked the "Medical Examination Hack", and the naked model with the "Medical Examinations Hack". This new system makes the old one kind of obsolete.
So the question is:
A. Do you want the Hidden/Visible portrait features integrated in the new system. I'm thinking as soon as you payed one "Hack" her portrait is unlocked.
or
B. Always show girls' portrait no matter their status or investigation levels.
See you tomorrow for the new Dev Diaries about the new Investigation/Coercion system.
Have a good one mates.
