macOS
v0.4.1
itch.io says Version 19 parentBuildId 50383

Character Galery is not persistent. It (sometimes) looses characters or achieved scenes from characters between save-state-loads.
Items that vanish are mostly Cali and Cali's First Time and Sister Love from Emily but not from Tisha or from both her and Tisha.

Second Bug: After Ending Calis Quest it's not possible to get her Pliable Trait to evolve to Devoted if she already is at 100 Loyalty. It's only possible to evolve it into Slutty by buying more actions.

Third Bug: If Cali is on level Commoner and has the Slutty trait she loses the 100/75 for Confidence after loading the save-state but retains the 100/75 for Charm.

Proposed solution: make saving of the galery more reliable by saving it into the save-file instead of (seemingly) interpreting it from the characters side-quest info in the file.

What version is it stated in main menu?

Ozymandias426 years ago (1 edit)

v0.5.2.2. Sry should have looked there in the first place.
Got the initial version via lsappinfo info -app strive2 which should read the manifest in the .app bundle if I'm not mistaken.
Seems to differ in there though.

EDIT: Found another bug(?) while playing. Elixir of Regression does not remove the 'Prude'-trait.

I'm pretty sure you shouldn't lose any progress with character gallery as its not tied to quest checks or anything but saved separately to 'progressdata' file.

Pliable trait actually requires 90 affection points right now, not loyalty.

Elixir of regression is not supposed to remove Prude trait.

Ozymandias426 years ago (1 edit)

okay, thank you for the fast and helpful reply.
So there is no way to remove that trait apart from editing the save-file? Elixir of regression did seem like a logical choice, since it stated it's to be used to 'rehabilitate someone from an inconvenient character' and traits like Prude do not affect the stats. It'd be understandable if it didn't remove mute or scarred.

Actually Prude trait can disappear with random chance on orgasm.

Ozymandias426 years ago

yeah discovered that just a few minutes ago, too :D
Thx for the hint, though. Great game btw.
Say, the Deterrent and Stimulant Potions. What effect do they have outside of their respective side-quests?
Stimulant seems to speed up growth of arousal but I'm not sure about that.

Strive4Power6 years ago

Yeah, they are pretty much affect lust generation during sex actions right now.

Just remembered another important thing. It's not technically a bug but something that should be changed regardless. By having the game save to $HOME/.strive2 you are forcing users to disable itch's sandboxing mechanism on macOS. According to https://github.com/itchio/itch.io/issues/707
where I brought this up a while ago games should save to $HOME/Library/Application Support/ in order to avoid this.

For all instances game is saved to "user://saves" which means different things in different OS. This system is a part of godot engine and should probably be addressed there. I'm neither good nor familiar with mac file structure so unless you have a ready solution which wouldn't impact all other instances, I'm afraid there's not much I can help with.
