Apparently I have to tell y'all this again: don't click on links in the comments. We clean them up ASAP, but they're all viruses.

Basic Internet Safety 101: Don't click on weird links.

If you don't upload a bug report to discord with a save so we can investigate, I'm really not sure how someone can help you?

In the gym. There's a pool.

There is a couple of fan translations floating around, but unfortunately the text-based nature of the game plus the frequent update cycle means that we'd have to have dedicated translators working on the text every month, and machine translation wouldn't distinguish between the text that was code and the text that was.. actually text. 

Some browsers with built-in translation should be able to live-translate the text, but I haven't experimented with this to know what works.

I have no idea what's going on in this comment thread, but it's becoming increasingly off-topic and I'd like it to stop before we have to put a stop to it, please?

Anyway, force OF ANY KIND isn't really the vibe of CoT.

Upon looking at things again.. you're right, that was added like at the last second XD

No wonder it doesn't work!

I'm sorry, in what version specifically? Current public release is 0.7.3g.

Hello, person obviously playing the early version of the game just released for Patreons that I'm guessing you downloaded from F95 xD

I'll pass that on!

HTML files can be opened in text editors, I'd recommend Notepad++ since it has the basic formatting already installed and will make it look less like a mess of text. 

From there, you can use the simple Find commands to look for whatever text you're seeking out.

You'll see a lot of weirdness since CoT is Twine formatted as HTML, but all the event dialog and all that in the game is just plaintext and easily found.

(You could also join the Discord and ask around, we'd be happy to help!)

OH YOU MEAN LIKE THEY ADDED ALCOHOL TO IT

Yeah, that still exists. I'm sorry, I was completely thinking you'd somehow had a mod where people put *other things* into drinks. We've had some really weird input lately and I can only assume there's some weird mods floating around. 

Best thing is still to text-search the HTML file if you're wondering about something, as we add more and more events things will start to be harder to find.. but that's kind of the thrill of exploration, y'know?

Uh, no? I mean, your phrasing is a little off, nobody "spikes" a drink, there's none of that kind of thing, but you can be given drinks?

The code is HTML, if you think an event has been removed, you could always text search for it!

Hi. You're not the type of person we want playing this game. You can kindly leave now.

To all the other replies to this: 

It is the opinion of the CoT Moderators (and the diverse group of developers and contributors ) that "futa" is a slur, and the word is actually on our banned words list in the Discord.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but it is a term that will not be used in this game. 

As owliy has said, it is possible to mod your personal copy of the game to achieve that, if you wish, but it'll never be an "official" addition to the game.

Don't worry, it's definitely on the to-do list

Coming from a dev:

FUCK

OFF

if you want to disable trans people, we don't want you playing this game. You can leave now.

AI will never be added to the game. It's a disservice to creators and it's actually banned in the game's Discord.

It is incredibly helpful for an error like that if you'd come into the discord and drop the save in our Bug Reports channel so we can look at it directly!

Passed on, will be fixed!

One Of Adult Game HERE - it's Course of Temptation, it's this game, you're already here, yay.

This actually came from a suggestion in the Discord! When something is simple to add but would make so many people happy, why wouldn't we put it in? xD

You really need to chill out, dude, you've been making the exact same comment on this game for like a year now.

Why do you want a fail state in a laid-back life sim that's based around role-playing a character and having fun?

Even when we implement more severe consequences it's more the vibe of this game that you can always recover. It's a hopeful, joyous game, you know?

Thank you for your concern! Just letting you know, due to the nature of the way the game is created and coded, even if the other official host and the multiple (unofficial) websites hosting a copy of the game went down, we'd still have the development site, and even if THAT went down, due to the nature of the way the game is created, with multiple Contributors working on various sections, the raw game code exists on multiple computers at once. There's essentially many backups being created all the time! 

If itch ever does decide to go full weirdo and remove all adult games, regardless of content, there's already been discussion of having a SFW edit here and the full game still accessable on the Homepage, which you can visit under "More Information" above!

Go talk to itch about that. You have no idea how severally limited the moderation options are here. Anthaum can't even add someone else to watch the comments without giving them FULL ACCESS TO THE PROJECT. It's ridiculous.

Just please keep reporting them and downvoting them as you see them.

ANNNNNNNND WE'RE BACK

What the heck are you talking about?

I mean, to be clear, we didn't erase content on the seed, we just removed some small content altogether (quite some time ago) and changed a few other bits. The special seeds in CoT do nothing more than change some personality traits of NPCs. They don't add or remove content, they just make content that's already there more or less likely to occur.

The seeds are not "add this content, remove this kink", that's all in the settings already, and even that can be set to "Warn" instead of "Block".

"dangerzone" was NEVER meant to be a "DoL simulator" or "the way the game was originally" or anything like that, and I'm not sure why people think that?

First off, disclaimer: Although I'm part of the "team" of CoT, these are my viewpoints and not an official statement. Anyway. 

I'm not sure what part of the game is "misleading" people? 

Although the game uses the same basic programming language as DoL (Twine), it isn't based on DoL in any way. The code is original, we're not "softcore modded DoL" as CoT is occasionally called on some forums. 

I'll fully admit that several years ago, when the game was first released, there were some filler events as the game struggled to find footing. As the game has grown, however, it was found the tone that we felt best fit both the setting and the audience. What started as merely another adult text-based game has become something that I'm glad to see is inclusive, accepting, fun, and light-hearted.

CoT may be "the college party movie game" or whatever, but a lot of those movies are.. quite troublesome these days, full of sexism, assault, and jokes about sexuality and trans people that are honestly, very offensive. Over time, that vibe was considered, and eventually rejected in favor of something better. 

I understand your disappointment. But this is the direction the game is going now, and that's not changing. "dangerzone" was always just a special seed, a modification to NPC traits and aspects. It doesn't change the essence of what the game *is*, no seed will do that. 

I know that there's a lot of crossover between DoL and CoT players. Hell, some of our Contributors wrote mods or code for DoL, and some still do! But we're not competing with that game, and I firmly believe people can enjoy both for their specific vibes and settings. 

Also, as someone who saw the interactions in the Discord, I'm sorry that you felt like you were "treated like trash". I have the receipts, and the harshest thing someone said to you was "You want DoL gameplay, go play DoL" which is, well, just true? As I've laid out above, CoT is not DoL, and that's.. just the way things are. But people can enjoy both, you know?

What's amusing is how easy that bug was to test, just one quick run with "bisexual" set as low as it could go in world gen and the game still popped 525 bisexual characters. It was like WELP I GUESS WE DON'T HAVE TO HUNT DOWN THAT BUG

Seriously, I wish all bugs were that easy to reproduce.

That was a weird bug, it'll be fixed next update.

To whoever is downvoting me: trans people are in the game to stay. Suck it up and deal with it.

I'm pretty sure that's what he means, I just want him to openly say it so I can laugh at him and tell him no.

Someone needs to explain what they mean, first?

What the hell do you mean by "futa"?

Okay, y'all are done. Be civil, we're all fellow perverts.

Yeah, there's a cool down after leaving one team before you can join another. I think it's two weeks, IIRC.

There was a bug in warmth calculation, it'll be fixed soon!

Okay that's actually pretty funny

(Edited the above message to point out where the link is, rather than give it directly, because yeah, we have had a lot of spam links lately, good call!)

For anyone having trouble downloading the game from itch: remember that there's a mirrored copy on the official website!
