Go to your wardrobe in the staff screen. At the bottom of your outfit selection is the cellphone tracker. Use it.

Is there any way to get Alice to do anal again? I've dated her again, and she was back to her normal blowjob-and-run routine.

Zobo's right. Something is amiss. My REGULAR clients are asking for girls with 50+ quality, and VIPs want girls with 80+, even over 100. How in the Hell do I do that? I even used dev mode to max all stats and set one girl to like, lvl 85 for a client and he STILL wasn't impressed. Clearly there's more to the quality number than just how high stats/level are. Perhaps quality has something to do with number of satisfied clients as well? Doesn't seem like it, though, because one of my girls gets worked like a revolving door in a Manhattan skyscraper by my receptionist and her quality is about the same as the rest of the girls. Moreover, I've had clients that it says want quality 25. I checked EVERY bedroom, and all my girls showed as being 30+ quality, but when I cycle through the girls for the client, none of them show as meeting the quality requirement.

Granted, like someone else stated earlier about being alpha development and such, gonna be plenty of bugs and tweaks. And fortunately, by the time you're getting these kinds of clients, you've got so much rep/notoriety/$$$/girls, you don't even really sweat having some unsatisfied customers.

P.S. Just thought of another possible reason. Maybe the quality requirement is basically a linear function of game progress and currently has no cap. So the more days, more girls, more money, basically more successful you become, the higher quality requirements will get in perpetuity.

Hello.

I downloaded the 2.1. version and was eager to find what new goodness the game had in store for me.

I played with it for a while, and stopped.

The reason was that I was very unhappy with the ui changes. Two of them specifically, the end day system and the to lesser extent the room selection menu when you wish to have sex with your employees.

I freely admit I am far more easily annoyed by these things, as a UX designer, but I think the game would benefit if you did something like the changes I will suggest below.

First the bigger issue: the end day thing. I know why you did it: I too have missed an event earlier in a gameplay I did, by simply having sex with employee, ending the day with the event never firing. It is good to prevent this.

However, you have currently 2 events for what is by description supposed to be 100 day game, and is more of a sandbox anyway. Why does this feature have to be present on any day where there is no event? Do you value your UI consistency so high that you are unwilling to have the game behave like it did 2.0. and below on any non-event day? I would strongly suggest you let the days without events to not require ending before you sleep, only change the days there is an event.

I must confess I didn't for a long while figure out how to invite an employee to share the night with me in 2.1. version: if the game clock is 23:15 or later there's too little time (which was kinda the trigger) to have sex with them. Now you have to invite them to your bedroom (which is not a drag target) through the new submenu. Which apparently doesn't exist for Julia.

The new submenu. There being 3 places you can have sex in, two of which you can drag people to (why not all three?), one of which can have a random people in it as a surprise and another where your people can accost you for a raise... And one wherein you cannot drag people to nor in it can you invite people in when you are already inside.

The bedroom should have an ability to be accessed directly, and people invited in. Maybe invite themselves in, sometimes.

Now to the submenu. I can see how you can have the showers and the bedroom in another floor, and having to cycle the floors to find them is annoying. Having a way to access sex content in these rooms from your cabinet, which always is on the main floor, is a good idea. However, putting a submenu between your invitation and sex content is a small annoyance. I would rather see another way to access those rooms that you can use whenever:

You could have sex in the cabinet, for example, cum on the girl, take her to showers to... clean up, then to bedroom to sleep. These would be possible scenarios if you have buttons to access the shower, bedroom and cabinet when in any of those rooms. There is nice room for those buttons in the, say, top right corner when in any of those rooms.

Maybe you could even change rooms during sex.

It would allow you to invite a girl to cabinet, and change the context to bedroom after 23:15, if you think there's too little time for sex, and then select sleep there.

I do appreciate ui concers are a not something many people pay much attention to. Hopefully you find my suggestions at least interesting.

Oh, another small thing. I find it rather odd the typical closing time is 21, and the latest 22.

I would suggest you consider that the game take place in a different time phase: during the time people normally work would be the typical sleeping hours, and evening and night is the active time. Something like 12 is the wakeup hour, and 04 or 4 am being the time you go to sleep. Ever hear the expressions "ladies of the night?"

Thanks for the game, anyways!

I've gotten the day-end event with this build, but it seems very rare with the new mechanics. One thing I did notice is that a save occurs before the event completes if it bleeds over into the next day however, so if you restart the game (F5 or reload after closing), you lose experience from that reload (I literally lost a level doing this after a whore wanted to have a sex competition with me at the end of the day).

As for reasons I'll refresh after a days end?
  • One of your staff gives up to laziness, you can refresh to get around this.
  • End of day bug where you have sex with one of your hired help all night, leaving you with no stamina refresh the following day (bug?).
  • This happened once in this build, but at one time an end-day event canceled a morning event (the first-time police one; reloading forced the event to run, but I probably lost the experience from the end-day event by doing so).

I noticed a few other bugs also:
  • The time bug (at least I assume it's a bug) still presents itself from time to time while playing a female adventurer; this is the one that adds 6 minutes per trick attempted with a customer in your cabinet, even if all you're doing is checking your chance of success & not actually doing it. Most of the time it doesn't trigger in this build, so at least it's an improvement...
  • Occasionally I'll run into the old background in the streets when attempting to escort a woman to safety, but failing the check to avoid the fight against 2 or 3 thugs (occasionally a whore will get thrown in there). Not that that is a big issue, but it is something I've noticed.
  • The bug on the streets when having 3 females in your party (meaning you're playing female) & offering sex to a thug is still around, negating option of offering the 3rd female...
  • Seems the character field when starting a female run no longer works. I've never really cared for it, but it's something I noticed & am just pointing it out in case there's any concern in fixing it.
  • I still noticed the truncated ending sex scene once in a while, seems to be relevant to where the whore is riding the customer with her lower clothes still on (I think it was the Foxy Lady outfit).
  • The Skull outfit is still spelled wrong...

What changes I do like about this version:
  • The grab option for males in battles was a nice touch, nice to see they can now do the nasty with their female enemies as well (although it seems to require two males), although I'm surprised this doesn't lower Alice's dignity when she ends up getting raped over it...
  • The male bouncer showing occasionally in the Bar was a nice touch for female players, however their appearance is a bit low as far as I'm concerned. If you can't do anything with the female Bar customers anyways, what's the point in putting them in there (unless there's the off-chance that some of them might be bi-sexual, which I haven't run into yet)?
  • A lesbian scene now properly loads when you trick Alice into offering tenderness (playing a female adventurer), but she backs out, rather than loading a standard male on whore scene & your character getting sent to the whore side with an unknown male as the adventurer at the end of the scene.
  • The background in the streets is much more appealing for an alley now, rather than being the plain gray background in earlier builds.
  • The dropdown sex-position list was a nice touch, although I would have rather it defaulted to being closed rather than open, as I don't usually mess with it.

A few suggestions:
  • When you run into a escort mission in the streets, I might suggest a few other outcomes. Currently the only option is to escort them & gain money out of it.
    • For starters, while I noticed you gain experience for taking down enemies during an escort mission, you don't appear to gain money for defeating those enemies however (only the money for completing the escort mission). I'm going to assume this is a bug or oversight, not considering money gain for those defeated enemies.
    • What if lets say that rather than completing the escort mission for money, you took the option of capturing them to be a whore instead. This would require having an open cell to have access to the option.
    • Maybe you have the option to hire them directly or have sex with them on completion, but at a much higher stat requirement to succeeded than with a common whore.
  • One annoyance I've had with the game is there's a severe gap in options for female adventures. A lot of this could be resolved by allowing lesbian scenes (you already have one, as mentioned earlier in this post).
  • What if there was a chance you could get female customers or male whores? Of course each customer would have their own sexual preference (male, female or bi-sexual), which would be a requirement for the event to happen (obviously this is going to throw a bit of a snag when it comes to the gloryhole room, so you'll need to restrict female customers from being able to access it). Of course if we get into this, we'll need to add a filter to filter certain situation (such as male on male or female on female in the options for those who would rather not see it; this would negate a few events already in the game, not just affecting random customers).
  • A UI suggestion, would the chance of getting a dropdown menu on character creation for each item in the list (similar to how you have selectable sex scenes currently) be an option? I've been able to determine this fairly easily for male adventurers, but I've always been curious just how many selections there are for female characters & haven't been able to properly determine that to get an idea of what my range of selection is per customization field.

Also I want to ask what happens if you leave a pregnancy without aborting it? Any chance this can get you a new whore/thug? Or does the pregnancy status just never go away if you ignore it?

So I've had a bit of trouble, all of a sudden, with trying to initiate the 'Alice Gloryhole' event after waiting a lonesome 50 days. So I've decided I'll share how I worked around this, as I have nothing else to do.

Tutorial:
Step 1: Locate where your save game is on your disk. For me this was C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\2S2EF2TP\localhost\Users\YOURNAME\ and then wherever you installed the game to. (E.g. If you saved it to your downloads, then it would be the directory in bold + Downloads\Simbro\)

Step 2: In this folder you should have an options file and different slots depending on how many savegames you have. And for example, slot_0 would be your first save. And slot_1 would, therefore, be your second save. Find the corresponding save file and remember it.

Step 3: Head to this site here. IMPORTANT: Make sure you ARE NOT using Google Chrome, as the site says that it has a problem with it. So use another browser (E.g. Mozilla Firefox.)

Step 4: Click on 'Open' and browse for where we found your save file earlier and, of course, open it.

Step 5: Find 'Quests' in the list that has appeared, and right click it. From here click on 'Create'. Now pay close attention, where it says 'Key', type in EXACTLY what I say inside these brackets: (AliceGloryhole) and where it says value type exactly what's inside these brackets: (1). And then click 'CREATE'.

Step 6: Navigate to the top and click 'Save', to save the file to your downloads. Find the modified save in your downloads and right click it, then 'Cut'. Now go back to where your Simbro saves are originally, and right click, then 'Paste'. (Make sure to overwrite old save)

Now it's done! Whenever you load up that save again and take Alice on a date, it will think you have triggered the gloryhole event so you can advance the story. Crisis averted

The main issues with the UI changes to me are that 1) You can't sleep with a girl unless you have at least 1 hour left in the day (which doesn't make any sense. Sleeping with a girl for the night should be the last thing you do for the day). And 2) You can't sleep with Julia any more.

Issue number one is made worse when you have a night event, because if it involves sex, it'll push you past 23:00, preventing you from sleeping with anyone. But the real kick to the nads is not being able to sleep with Julia anymore. I used to end every game day by spending it with Julia.

Do both you & her have at least 10 stamina at the end of the day? I'm able to get those events to work just fine overnight, I just don't like doing them because they leave you with no stamina refresh the following day & reloading the game afterwards to force a stamina refresh causes you to lose any overnight experience gains due to the save happening before the overnight events complete... It's possible you're talking about a special event, in which case it may have been moved to the master bedroom ($1000 cost to build).

I do have enough stamina. The problem I run into is the "There's not enough time for that" issue. Unless I end the day right at 22:00, having sex with the end of day event takes too much time. To be clear, I have been able to spend the night with a girl, but only if there either isn't an end of day event, or if I end the day promptly at 22:00. But of course, I can't spend the night with Julia.

And I actually haven't run into the bug where stamina doesn't refresh. Maybe it's due to using a regular saved game that I've carried over from previous builds? (and therefore I've already done the content from previous builds?) And I built a master bedroom before I first tried to spend the night with a girl. I dunno.

That might explain why you're running into that bug (with Julie)... I haven't had the problem with it, but if you're uncertain, maybe try another computer or OS account to test & see if the same thing happens with a new save. The other option is you could back up the save first if you're worried about losing it & try it over the same OS account.

Also if you're not running into the stamina bug, can I ask what browser you're playing the game over? I prefer IE over FF since FF disables function keys when opening a flash file directly, could be the browser causing it...

I would like to see the outcome of the new quest change depending upon if she gave up her anal virginity to the thugs or to your character? It seems weird that she acts as if nothing really happened either way you did it-- I feel there should maybe be two distinct personality outcomes depending upon the choice during the mission.

Also, why is she more willing to give her virginity to the gangrape than she is anal yet they take anal anyway, but afterwards will only do anal and acts like that is easier than regular?

That's something I mentioned on the 8th (something that hasn't been responded to yet). And it's not so much of an event as it is a battle mechanic. While I have noticed that it lowers stamina, apparently you can't knock out an enemy doing it like you can with a whore's sex attack on males... The other odd thing is that you have to remove their lower clothes before you can gain access to the sex option, where AI Thugs don't have to take that additional step.

Guess I haven't run into that event if what you're saying is accurate. I know the one with the 2 whores is a dream sequence (happens fairly early in a game as a morning event if you get 2 whores early in the game), so I wouldn't expect that one to lower her dignity & I doubt this is the one you're talking about

I'm considering recording some gameplay of this game to point out various bugs in the game & maybe make it a higher priority to get them fixed if they can be seen in action, however I'm not entirely sure where I'm going to upload them to to have them viewed, unless I uploaded them in an encrypted archive to my personal site (my host has a zero-tolerance policy to adult content & copyright infringement, so I can't host them publicly). I suppose a possibility might be to make an account on NaughtyMachinima & host them privately (will require an account on both sides to share them with other individuals).

What do you think of having separate reputation levels for each class of client; hobo, thug, adventurer, merchant, noble, VIP? Each class' perception of the business will determine how much traffic of that class arrives; with low enough reputation you may see only a few per week, high enough reputation generates a boom in business with that class. High traffic from some classes may cause a penalty to reputation gain in others, eg, many thugs and hobos will reduce reputation gain with merchants and nobles. If VIP includes everyone who can make or break your business, eg investors, city officials (esp district attorneys but any bureaucrat can make things hard on business,) reviewers, local business, church leaders(they aren't without sin), organized crime bosses (unless you expand your illegal activity enough to become one yourself,) then their estimation of you will become more important the more your business grows.

With or without the above suggestion, how about bedroom upgrades to accommodate each type of class (with the exception of adventurers, whose requests may vary wildly by taste and successes.) With room distinctions the auto receptionist can send particular clients to the girl you want reserved for them instead of occupying them with first-come, first-served hobos and thugs. The girls may have tastes that modify how they feel about a client; some girls are more comfortable with working joes and common folk, some are excited to get fucked by criminal types and bruisers, some may have champagne tastes and communicate well with high class clients. If a room isn't available for a particular type, the client may be served in a room with no type, or if you want that type to be unwelcome, keep no rooms available for them at all. There's always the glory holes, if you haven't excluded those as well. You could also choose to upgrade a client for a small increase to reputation, or to try to recruit a thug or adventurer, or just to show gratitude to a regular customer and encourage repeat business.

If you start doing that, you can also make it so that these certain types also bring in fights and notoriety of some sort. Based on what's in the game, I'm sure that it would require an overhaul of the system in certain aspects. Honestly, I'd like that complexity to come in sooner as well given that the personality traits of the girls should also determine some of their skills and what they're good at as the game expands.
