Alpha 1.6.2.4 for chapter 2 hotfix


Greetings everyone!
Here comes a hot fix for the latest alpha vs of chapter 2, we’ve read and revised all the feed provided by your comments in the search of bugs and glitches.
After fixing most of them, we’ve decided to bring you some insight explanations about them and, also, to highlight how important is for us the feed you provide every time we release a new version.
As some of you noticed, this version had some issues when looking for some events after reaching max influence in an area.
Well, this was caused because the new under sea area works as two bound areas. Once one of the two areas is maxed out (octopus or merfolk), it should trigger an extra final level on the other area. For example, if you max the merfolk area, the octopus’ area final level will be triggered, showing the final outcome of Elana’s decisions.
This, who seemed to not work properly at all, also made that the rest of areas had an extra final level, so when interacting with a max influenced area as the tavern, it could trigger it’s “next” level, in this case, the management tavern area, making it impossible to see the previous events.
Same for the farms, the houses and the rest of the areas. This was “hard” to spot, cause it needed to be triggered by “increasing” your influence in an already max influenced area. O.o!
Luckily, we’ve fixed the under the sea area and also the rest of the areas, balance has returned to the village once more.
There are some other bugs spotted by the community, here comes some of them:
Cleaning windows Lvl 2, houses area. → typo error on the English script made game crush when supposed to show the image : Fixed.
Miaka, a villager from the church, interacting with her could lead to a game crush. → upon changing the preferences from the villager’s and adding Elana’s strap-on skills, Miaka wanted to keep her old tastes, now she has been reprogrammed to like the current skills: Fixed.
Strap-on skills disappeared after loading a saved game. : Fixed.
Transforming Elana (dialog option) for the third time while doing Rala’s event would crush the game. Tested and not found. Maybe more data is needed to replicate the bug.
Changing the spirits while fighting Setek would freeze/crush the game. Tested and not found.
Although, in any fight, when fast clicking over one of the spirits of the menu, will change the appearance of the actual active spirits (if sliding the mouse over them) but they will keep their abilities. It does not crush the game. Needs to be polished.
Clicking on a friend’s skill in combat (Rala’s fucktality for example) but not executing it, would count as if used. Tested and not found.
Loading a saved game would reset the skill count from Elana’s friends to one only “use charge” available. Tested and found. → As many other things in the game, friends abilities can be used only for a limit number of times per day, this means that the “use charges” count resets after sleeping.
Always remember to sleep after you learn some of these skills (or loading a saved game), so the count will reset to the proper number of “use charges”.
Fixed a bug where Elana might transform without clicking on the button when interacting with the villagers.
Changed the name of the under the sea quest main quest line, now it properly displays “Songs under the sea” instead of  “I feel dirty…” Heh.
New added stuff:

The coins in the down right corner of the screen, have a maximal amount of capacity of 99.999, preventing to get the number cut in half or some other minor issues.

Elana’s and Rala’s ragdolls for trigger event of the under the sea area.

When wining fights against the Peace Guard, Elana receives experience, every time she levels up, her stats increase as well as her SPIRITS stats. (5% per level for the normal Spirits, 10% per level for Spirit of Lust).

An extra image from the hurricane octopus-woman from the under the sea.

There are some minor bugs/glitches that we know, but they don’t crush the game, we’re working to fix them in every version.
Also, we would like to remind that we recommend to not load a saved game from a previous released alpha version, because every time we publish a new version, we make a lot of changes and that may lead to some conflict between versions.

Thanks for your feed, support and understanding!
Have a nice week guys!

  1. Hey guys, just wanted to let you know about a bug/freeze issue that I ran into. I was finally able to download the public version 3 or 4 days ago and have been playing it since then. I was pretty far along into the game and the tavern almost completed. Got to the point where Alf and Elora left Elana in charge of the tavern. I went to the rebel camp during the day, shortly after that and had a conversation with Plis without a problem. Then I started having a conversation with the fat guy who wants to send everyone to the stake, but the game froze up. I had to restart the game and have to start from the beginning all over again. Could you check out that section and see if you are able to duplicate the issue and correct it ? Thanks!!

  3. What I did, Alinor, was delete the version 1.5.5.1 that I had on my computer and then I downloaded version 1.5.5.1 again, after Knot said they had done hotfixes. I have not experienced any new freezes since. That being said, I have noticed that the window washer/cleaner image STILL does not appear. Also, I noticed that I haven't been able to get Lily out of her depression with the options that have been available so far, even though I have almost 100% on all areas (I have not given the tavern staff the money to remodel the tavern yet). I also have not tried talking to the fat thief in the rebel village, which was the spot where my game froze up once before.
    I am still noticing intermittent occurrences where the image of Elana does not transform when you click on her, to influence villagers. I believe that it occurred most frequently in the Houses section of the game. Something similar happened the first time I was trying to train Rala. The Train button was not highlighted like it should be, and when I clicked on it nothing happened. I clicked on it a few times and still nothing. However my experience level did get subtracted from. I'm not sure but I don't think Rala's training level increased. It did work normally the next time I got around to trying it again.

    1. Something is wrong with the buttons and this version, we are looking what could be happening. About Aly and Lily chain, you need to create the spirit of happiness to move forward with it.

    2. Edit: The train button issue with Rala will probably be lack of xp points to do the training.

  4. Hey Knot, you guys can ignore the part about cheering Lily up. I figured that one out. My bad....Now if I could just figure out how to get the Rala and Scylla event (that you mentioned in the Alpha 1.6.2.4 update message) to happen, then maybe I could get to the undersea events.

    1. Hi! It's not included in this version yet (this is the 1.5.5.1)

    2. What about helping the male and female elves get together again ? The Current Quest List mentions it and does not say that this quest is under development, but I can't seem to find way to initiate any interaction between the males and females. Is that also something that is not available in this version of the game ?

      Delete
    3. It's a mistake, and it should say under development. There is still a lot of work to do there

      Delete
  5. Are there still debug codes in this version of the game?

    1. Another thing that i forgot. When will appear The other spirits that are not implementes yet?

      Delete
    2. Hi!

      The Kaeryn problem tends to happen when a save from an older version is loaded.
      We don't have plans for the rituals, maybe in future but still there's a lot of work to do on other stuff. Even so next month or during September we'll be working on the other spirits.

    1. Hi!
      This happened in the 1.6.2.4 but it was fixed in the 1.6.2.4 hotfix of this version. Thanks for reporting it though!

  8. in 1.6.2.4 after you defeat Setek you can't attack anyone that was in the same position of the screen after that so second position from the left can not be selected for attack. To get around it I just saved the game and reloaded it with the save after that you can go about your normal play when in fight mode. Also when you load a save and go to look at your inventory the eel pie is always there after you have previously donated it this causes a problem if you have already used up all the space it will locate the dress for getting past the guard Elves in the upper left of the screen, this can be fixed by going to the renegades village and re donating the eel pie then going back to the inventory page and dragging and dropping the dress back into the open space these bugs are persistent I have played through many times and they are always there so they should not be too hard to find. there are a bunch of minor bugs that do not seem to affect anything besides the ones already listed on the this page several that I did not see listed such as at night in the forest the capture of the shadow fairy's says that it updated the quest log but it does not do it , the Elves quest does not say under dev. which makes you think it can be completed but so far I have not been able to find a way to do it I assume once the elves city is complete that will be possible.

    1. Thanks for reporting it! We'll check it. The problem with the items will be fixed in future when we'll work more on the items (except for the eel pie. It can be sold in Rala's shop for money and it's just a little help while the game is under development). About the quest log, I think is fixed in patreon's version but we'll check it, just in case.
