Lucretia's Legacy 0.0.7 progress

Added 2017-11-29 20:24:47 +0000 UTC

I took a little break from doing renders to do some code changes.

It used to be that if you successfully made a girl your slave, when Aureus would have captured her, he simply captured someone else instead. The result of this is that if you were having a very successful game, Aureus would simply collect the girls that are harder to get, often when you were just about to have success with them. That won't be the case in 0.0.7 -- instead each girl is rated as to how hard she is, and if Aureus is ready to capture her, but you've enslaved her already, he won't capture anyone at all, so you won't be punished for success.

The other side of that is that Aureus will be more aggressive, starting his capture of girls earlier, and grabbing them with increasing frequency as the game progresses.

Related to that, I've changed the code for what happens when you send a girl to the hospital due to biting her too often. You should be able to avoid ever doing this -- when I first wrote the game there were fewer girls, and therefore it was a bit harder to spread the biting around. :) The code in the last few versions made you increase an invisible stat that made Aureus act faster and, in 0.0.4 or so, effected how many turns you had to finish the game. With the above change that stat has no effect at all. I've changed the code so that it decreases your dominance instead, but I'm debating simply letting the girl die, which would require more extensive change to the code but is probably more thematic. Any opinions?

I'm still on track for a mid-December release.
