Service Info - Basic Tier Pricing

Hi,
I noted that Patreon's cut for a 1$ Tier has become so high it doesn't really make sense to have it.
As I still want a Basic Tier for patrons I adjusted the price to 2$ (same as SubStar, where it always was 2$) rather than cancelling it. I hope you still decide to support the game.

Note: Existing 1$ Tier subscriptions will not change and remain at 1$ :)

DevLog - 12th Feb - Progress V2.05

Hi,

today I have finished integration of the last Quest into 2.05, Moira's Pet Exemption!

A deal is struck between the Krell and Iltari Station and as its result Moira receives her Pet Exemption for Krell Space (with a catch). Captain Jim, the newly minted Trade Envoy can now take out his Pets in Public in the Station... :)

I'll do release testing from tomorrow where I have to check for logic flow issues, add some remaining pet walk renders and finalize the draft renders f...

DevLog - 9th Feb - Progress V2.05 (NSFW)

Hi,

finally I finished Moira's Pet Quest code!

Now I'll do a few accompanying renders and start with Integration on Monday.

The BETA should be available by Friday 12th. Its a bit behind schedule but I wanted to give the Pet Quest a worthy conclusion and decided to add a few moire cutscene renders... :)

Still have to render out some drafts as high rez but no roadblock foreseen.

DevLog - 4th Feb - Progress 2.05

Hi,

over the last few days I wrote and coded Nimhe's Mini-Quest (the one with the Infiltrator Threesome that was voted for in the VIP Poll...), set up the render / animation and I also linked it to the Galaxina storyline...

Now all thats left is Moira's Quest II. I did already some renders but decided to make the Quest bigger than simply "asking" at Admin. After all Iltari Station needs to be convinced to allow Krell Uniforms...

I wrote the Quest Outline today and will do ...

Devlog - 31st Jan - Progress V2.05

Hi,

in the last days I added several achievements (NSFW) and created the (NSFW) animations and cutscenes for Type P and Nimhe+Infiltrator.

Now main items left are Moira's Quest II and a small Side Quest relating to Nimhe and the Infiltrator. I'll be done with those end of next week at latest and then can go for integration & BETA.

While testing today I stumbled over the inflexible Subsystem Installation and wrote a quick alternative after lunch today :)

Devlog - 28th Jan - Progress V2.05

Hi,

Over the last days I added a number of bugfixes and GUI improvements (thanks for the reports) to the V2.05 main path.

Yesterday I started doing the final NSFW renders. As I reworked the achievement screens I decided to add 5 specific achievement renders for new achievements (tiny preview of one of them in the banner, guess which...).

Also, I want to finish the Moira Quest which needs another set of renders. I'll probably set up and do 2-3 renders a day over the next da...

Devlog - 25th Jan - Progress V2.05

Hooray!

Yesterday I finished and integrated the Auto Trading System. Works nicely in its first iteration (see screenshots). Might need a little balancing for special goods and locations which can be done in the BETA imho.

I scales nicely as well, giving you from 100k to 1 Mil in daily earnings as you unlock new systems (maybe more earnings if you are unscrupulous... and run prohibited goods between Quthor - Arellarti - Pirate Base)

Now I can go back to the NSFW scenes. Ov...

VIP Exclusive Art - Drengar Working Girl (NSFW)

Hi,

for the entertainment district in Drengar Station I set up this working girl character. I really like that hairstyle. Clothing and shoes are assets from DAZ

Won't appear before 2.1 but here you go with a preview :)

y.y.

VIP/Upper Tier Art - Nimhe Alternate II (NSFW)

Hi,

here is the alternate Nimhe second render. I still think this hairstyle is preferable over the pigtails (better visible from this angle too...)

Maybe I make her show up in the game as well (remember when Tasha Yar's in-show sister had an appearance in STNG?). A relative of Nimhe coming with some message to her. Could be the start of some nice advanced quest...

Service Update - V200_010d

Hi,

due to an inconsistency with the sound mixer channels the game could in some cases cause inconsistent sound volumes for sound effects (preference volume not adopted or excessively muted).

As this can be massively annoying when playing with headphones I updated the Version to V2.00_010d.

• CR-2366 / V2.05_001 / Bug / Sound channel mixer name bug (ignores game prefs)

• CR-2367 / V2.05_001 / Bug / 22h ship return with pet and open race causes i...

Devlog - 22nd Jan - Progress V2.05

Hi,

while testing V2.05 features I felt the Shell crafting is unnecessarily complicated so I rewrote it (see screenshots)

• only single job "Craft Shell" now, same TEC requirement as usual

• selecting it opens a crafting tab where you can select a specific shell

• all available shells are shown (some locked)

• future: adding some AI cores will increase change for higher end shells

I feel this is a significant QoL improve...

Space Journey X - Roadmap Update

Hi,

after reviewing all change requests and registered issues I have updated the roadmap.

Before going into implementing V2.10 I think it makes sense to package and release a whole host of other features not related to the Drengar Conspiracy Storyline.

I therefore added a package as V2.05 to the roadmap (see screenshot), planning to release it into BETA early 02/2025. It is about 70% finished now (see feature list in attachment). I especially wanted the autotrader feature...

VIP Preview - Khelara Uniform Inspection (NSFW)

Hi,

here is a small render series on Khelara's first progressive Uniform Inspection.

Enjoy ;)

Devlog - 17th Jan - Progress V2.10

Hi,

considering the lack of "auto earning" possibilities besides arcade bots I have implemented an autotrader prototype. You can assign up to 3 drones from your hangar to a trading route to trade profitable goods (one round trip per drone per day). Base system works, now I need to refine it and add some space events too.

And there finally is a use for those protectors or infiltrators you are hoarding because you can assign them to protect a drone transport (they might even catch c...

Important Service Update V200_010b

Hi,

====================================
EDIT Revised (16-01-2025) : Patch for Yutani Bot Analyzer Crash

• Put file 760_sexbot_core_data.rpy into folder 700_minigames

upon reviewing my code I found one not good oversight from the python migration.

With any version V200_010a or older if you ...

Upper Tier / VIP Art - Nimhe Alternate (NSFW)

Hi,

while reorganizing my assets I found one of the original concepts for Nimhe and made this render.

I personally like that design more than the pigtails but I am probably overruled :)

Devlog - 13th Jan - Progress V2.10

Hi,

in the last few days I have started with the Assets for Episode 2.10 "The Drengar Conspiracy"

• Progressive Uniforms Khelara Done (Shaved and Non-Shaved Versions)

• every single sprite and portrait of Khelara re-rendered with better physique

Service Update V200_010a

Hi,

due to an annoying sound volume setting bug I decided to make a service release and added in a few other minor bugfixes:

• CR-2344 / V2.00_010a / Bug / Logic flow of zealot quest / hyperdrive issue (if accidentally sold)
  
• CR-2346 / V2.00_010a / Bug / Illegal arcade bots on Tenaris Base rejected
