That's been a problem for as long as I've known about guitars. Thanks for fixing it! Why was it specific to club security?

Yes! Now I can finally grind my guitar!

Because club security was coded to go hostile after the alarm sounds. This might seem pointless, but the idea is to enable moderate club security, for more friendly clubs. Cause trouble and they turn Conservative and attack, but stay cool and they'll be moderate. I'm still thinking about whether to make it that way for the gentleman's club as well.

I always thought the Gentlemans club was a high class place...

so why would there be mod bouncers?

Small glitch: when you win, you can't switch over to the other pages of the issues, and pressing 'L' for the high score list (as the game claims) does nothing.

Also, woot! Finally beat the game! Took 1 year to set everything in motion and then another 11 while I was disbanded.

EDIT: Downloading the new version, you accidentally left your save in.

While I'm all in favor of female priesthood, it somewhat ruins the atmosphere of conservative distopia.  Yes, female priests exist IRL, but if the country is conservative enough to have prayer sessions in public schools, I imagine female priests are few and far between.


Edit:
Seems I stumbled across a site layout problem at the appartments.

Worst architect ever.

Finally found this bug and fixed it!

...aaaand I created a new bug that also creates blank news stories.

My sleeper prison guard has been dropping in juice constantly, first had him spouting conservatism to build credibility, then put him on uncovering secrets, and it keeps decreasing (at -6 now)

Any character that was recruited with seduction will bleed juice at a steady rate if their lover is in prison. If they hit -50, they'll abandon the LCS. I'm guessing this is what's going on for you.

It would be interesting to expand this to a more communicative and varied system. Some messages notifying you of the problem are definitely called for, but one thing I've thought would be especially cool is to have multiple options for how they break down. They could just bleed down to -50 juice and be useless. They could abandon the LCS entirely. They could occasionally vanish for a few days without explanation, doing who knows what and not showing up for site raids or activation duty. They could even suddenly show up at the prison one day in a one person squad, with a stolen car, a gun, and a prison guard uniform, and refuse to exit the site until you successfully break their lover out of prison or get them killed trying.

I think the bug is that the possibly seduced sleeper prison guard, who is stationed at the prison, is being counted as in prison and can't get out for the late night booty calls happy fun time with adult brownies trying to find the adamantium pits, whilst performing various acrobatic feets.

Btw, could there be some kind of message when you've destroyed the CCS?

Ohh, that seems likely. Just checked the code and it now seems -very- likely. Just fixed that.

Wouldn't be too hard. I'll put it on the to-do list.

I didn't know anyone knew that you can take over crack houses! 

It isn't obivous. The only way you could find it out if you look at the code, but I thought it was general knowledge at the time, so I didn't mention it. The fact that Crack Houses come with a lot of heat though make them rather unappealing...

I'm SO gonna convert the Crack Houses to the LCS!  We need more safehouses!  Can they be upgraded?  Any other secret safehouses?  Information should be shared Liberally!

Also, the negative political violence tolerance article could be some riot that failed.
I originally posted something about angry citizens shooting schoolchildren to protest the latest school tax increase...but that's too dark.

Note that you actually get a random number between zero and your dodge skill as your defensive bonus, instead of just getting your dodge skill added directly, as it was in previous versions. This makes dodge still useful without allowing you to create truly invincible characters with it.

May I suggest having the minimum bonus be a third of your dodge skill instead of a flat zero? This would still leave even elite characters vulnerable to skilled opponents, but at least they won't be making total rookie mistakes in combat and get their faces perforated by pitchforks and syringes. I mean, a hard-earned skill like dodging has got to be worth SOMETHING, even if the dice are completely against you.

The newspapers break when using Wine, sometimes a problem, because I occasionally can't read the newspaper!
