WIP: Text Adventures from the 80's making a come back!
Added 2018-09-16 00:19:02 +0000 UTCAloha!
I hope everyone is staying safe this weekend! So last week I talked about how your sim would then be sent off to the 'The Farm' for processing after being selected through the Doll House. This week I expanded upon the farm rabbithole event a ton. I've always loved interactive erotic text adventure type games (ask me what my favorite one is!), so I'm proud to announce that 'The Farm' rabbit hole event is now a full fledged text adventure!

Tech details:
I made the UI code for this quite a while ago but plugging it into a active rabbit hole ended up having some hidden challenges. At first I thought I was just going to utilize the text adventure system from the Jungle Adventure expansion pack to play these sorts of events, but I quickly discovered that those systems are hard coded by EA. Meaning, to my knowledge, I couldn't just co-op the system. This meant I had to rebuild the text adventure system from the ground up. I knew it was possible and after a lot of surprise bugs I finally got it functioning.
What does it mean:
This means text adventures are coming to my mod, this is my first one where I'm testing the waters but I hope to add many more in the future. So, right now, when a sim leaves for the farm they will disappear offscreen like a standard rabbit hole event but every 30 minutes they will progress through the rabbithole. This particular one has 3 stages. The first you are seeing here where the sim arrives at the place and finds the gnome that lured them out. Depending on your response then 1 of 2 scenes play in the 2nd stage. There, things get a little hectic. Your sim has options again but if they come from a middle class or lower then there is a chance of a sex scene getting triggered. The chance of the scene getting triggered will depend on your response to this scene and your previous one. Then onto stage 3 there will be 2 more scenes to play and a second chance at a sex event. During this second event, your sim has a chance of actually getting knocked up by one of The 'Farm's employees!
For this, the code is all done (minus the untested pregnancy code), and now I just have to create the dialogs for the additional scenes, the dialog for the outcomes (which will appear via a notification), and the accompanying images.


I've also revamped the dazed buff your sim gets when the return from a successful farm visit. Oh, that's right, I forgot to mention, it's possible for your sim to actually get out of the farm before it ends depending on their skill set and thus be protected from the doll house events for a few days! Anywho, when they come back from a successful visit they will be added to the Doll House page and get a buff which comes with a few effects. A massive 20 dazed buff, a sick patient walking animation, and many visual effects (Seen in the second image; simray mind control effect, love potion effect, tea sakura glow head effect, alien glow head effect) and occasional effects every few minutes (seen in the first image; a heart explosion from the cowplant drink effect and a full body electricity effect). In this transitional period before finding a new home and after the farm, they will also be very open to all sexual solicitations.
Lastly, but certainly not least. A bug was reported to me this week involving my Rocky Road condoms. It turns out sims were getting the vaginal buff description regardless of sex act after initializing the rough ride buff during anal or vaginal sex and then changing positions. No good! So I had to overhaul the entire Rocky Road addon part of my mod. With the new code, now a sim will get either the anal or vaginal variant of the rough ride buff depending on what they are doing, and after the get the rough ride buff, if they switch to another sex act then they'll get a new buff:

(text is gender specific for both the above buff and the two rough ride buffs). And, ofc, when switching back to one of the other holes you'll get an appropriate rough ride buff again!
Finalizing the text adventure framework took a bit more time than I wanted this week, but I'm still very happy with the results. Over the next few days I expect to finish the remaining panels and text (they will be posted on discord and if there are patreon-safe panels then they'll get posted in the next week's wip too).

It's coming out with the caged bird update :) and if it goes smoothly I plan on adding many many more. I'm a big fan of erotic text adventures such as TiTS. Very excited :D
