Hi all,

Just an out of nowhere post but I am currently wrestling with the sex encounter system. Trying to encapsulate believable sex with numbers and words is a tricky thing but I think I have it figured out. With that said, the initial sexual acts will be making out, fingering, handjob, fellatio, cunnilingus, boobjob, missionary, doggy, cowgirl, against furniture and against wall. All of these require their unique tweaks because what works for one doesn’t work for the others. It includes flair for all characters and whatever else but it requires a lot of text variation. Essentially the work I have to do easily triples. 3 paths with 3 decision that branches 3 times, so I have to write 27ish things per character per branch. With that said, I can’t actually test things because what I’m writing depends on unwritten code and I won’t know what code is needed where until it’s needed. What I’m trying to say is, I am writing 200,000+ word program with no idea how it’ll work until most of all the pieces are there. Good thing is once this is complete, it will cover a large portion of the game. Other encounters will need to be specifically planned but this should suffice. After that, it will be flushing out choices or tackling an even greater sexual encounter system. Either way, lots of work ahead but I’d say that once this is complete it will be 30-ish % of what’s needed. I’m bad with percentages, estimations and time… but the overall goal is 2025. Thanks for your patience! - Icarus
