Beta is mostly working

Hi guys! I got a (mostly) working version of the new Sex Engine Beta out to Operators+ today. I'll spend the next few days fixing bugs and broken links, and we'll release it generally on Christmas Eve.
I want to set your expectations correctly because I'm not crazy about how it's turned out so far. It feels clunky, and less sexy than I wanted it to be. I think it's going to need to be simplified and edited. But that's why your feedback will be so important.
My plan is to do some reflecting and planning over the Christmas break, so we hit 2020 hard and with a solid plan. Hit me up here, in DMs and on Discord if you have advice for me.
"a (mostly) working version"; "It feels clunky"; "it's going to need to be simplified and edited" – so it's a Bethesda game, then ;) Oh wait, "spend the next few days fixing bugs and broken links"; that's way more effort than *they*'ve ever put in a game. For a minute there you had me worried the WFGD was Todd Howard :D All jokes aside, don't push yourself too hard – have a happy christmas & a glorious Hogmanay!

Also a recent review of a Tesla.

It's ok, it can't be perfect in its first instance. What matters is bulding something that can partially be modular (for reuse) and easily customizable (for variety). It's not easy at all, probably the most difficult task to date, that's why I don't really know what to expect :P

Modeling human behavior is a very, very complicated project. There is a limit to the amount of realism we need to play this and have fun. We don't need accurate physics, or accurate hormonal responses, or accurate cognition.
I haven't played this BETA, but a heuristic that often garners acceptable, and sometimes excellent, results is to K.I.S.S.

Obviously I haven’t played the beta yet, but, based on the document and what you’re saying, maybe make sure you don’t focus on the agent being always reluctant. She needs the autonomy to feel horny no matter what her stats say

"It feels clunky, and less sexy than I wanted it to be. " Story of my life.
