Update Time
🕑 Added 2024-08-29 17:10:00 +0000 UTCHey all,
I'm nearing the end of the SP2 cycle, and wanted to give an update on where we are and how it's going.
I'm currently writing Allies first base interaction. This takes a lot of time, since I have to write and configure so many buttons and interactions, but I've been slowly making the process easier and easier as I go by constantly modding and upgrading the tools I've built, so This should only take me a few more days to finish, and then I'll move on to purely testing. Outside of Allie, I've added in 4 new events for Maggie and Steph which all have different variations depending on game state and player choice.
I've done a decent amount of work on the UI to unify the tooltip language, though I will need to go back at some point and rewrite some of the tooltips of already created Events. Also, I've fully implimented Humanitas, and the Psychosism auras.
And I've begun the preliminary work on adding in Roles. For those familiar with SP1, Roles in SP2 would be similar to roles that could be given in SP1 with Mindcrafting. Drone, Worker Drone, and the like. This system will play a much bigger role in the future, once Billy can get his own space (base). Currently I've added one temporary role in the game, as well as created a preference system, so that people that have a role that they prefer will be more effective.
I've also added in an income system for characters, so that like in SP1, Billy will be able to mooch off his friends.
Finally I've started the groundwork for tracking Billys criminal activity. Currently there's no punishment for said activities, but it's first step in eventually getting demerits, and being investigated by the initiative( or becoming a villain ^_^).
So while I would have liked to get to add more content to the patrol aspect of the game, I'm still happy with my progress. New Character, Some new events to flesh out some aspects of the the existing characters, a lot of new mechanics, and a ton of setup for future features. Next SP2 Update I will be focusing heavily on adding in more content to the patrol system along with fleshing out Allie and the other characters a little more.
So that's a summary of this SP2 cycle. I'll be switching over to Loser once finished probably next week. Between here and that though There will be an End of Month stream. This Sat and Sun I'll be doing the EoM stream for all my $30 Patrons, but everybody is welcome to join in and watch. You can watch me in my discord channel. Anywho...back to work.
TLDR: SP2 new update next week. EoM stream on Saturday and Sunday

you are making a very large game, you should first stream line the process in the development, because doing it inefficiently would mean you will never finish the game. But as long as your continue we will continue to support you.
