Bug Fixing, Outfit Updates, and New Clothes!

v0.24.0 has been out in the wild with patrons for a few days and I've been chewing through bug reports as they pop up. Between bug fixing bouts I have also been working on the internal clothing system of Lab Rats 2 and adding something I've been thinking about for a while: mandatory accessories.

Mandatory accessories are clothing items (generally accessories, but in theory they could be any item at all as long as there is no layering conflict) that a girl wears independently of any specific outfit. This is most useful for girls wearing glasses, who previously wpre them as fashion accessories tied to specific outfits. These girls now wear their glasses with any outfit they wear, and the work is all done automatically.

Meanwhile, I have been taking advantage of the automation work I did during v0.24 and I have been rendering out a collection of new clothing items. I have been focusing on non-chest items, as they do not need variations for every breast size and as a result are a full ten times faster to render out. There are currently seven new items being rendered, with a few more likely to be added before the v0.24.1 release!

Great synopsis of the bug, I had been having a hard time tracking the situation that caused this infinite loop but I was able to get a test case set up and develop a fix, just in time for the v0.24.1 release!

Also in the morning shower crisis (game/crisis.rpy) you call the_report.get("girl_orgasms", 0) and the_report.get("guy_orgasms", 0) (lines 5080 and 5082 respectively). These checks aren't successful since it appears the correct string doesn't have an underscore, ie the_report.get("girl orgasms", 0)

I hope there can also be mandatory accessories that are assigned to them (like with work uniforms)... ID badges would be cool too.

You might have already addressed this in 0.24.1 but there is an infinite loop in some cases when the girl takes control. It's caused by object_choice being set to none which, when the girl is in control, just keeps looping inescapably because no sex act is ever performed (but the round_choice is always set to continue by the girl). There's two ways this could happen: 1) You chose 'pick a new position' and then pick 'nothing' and THEN 'Stop and Leave'. This happens because backing out of that menu causes pick_position to return 'none' and that in turn makes pick_object return 'none'. 2) You never pick a sex act. Seems unlikely that a girl would be sufficiently aroused and disobedient before any act has occurred, but probably not impossible. At its core this bug is caused by the fact that there's no function for the girl to chose an object for her sex position. As a side effect this can also cause some weird text where you're performing cowgirl on the window and she 'rolls off and lies next to you on the window'.

over the last year you have been very focused on improving clothing. Do you perhaps have a bit of a clothing fetish yourself?
