Even more new items



Mio in a plug suit.

Lots of new items being added, thanks to Redcape. Head over to:

For a look at the over 30 new items.

Still thinking about how to do furniture. My current thought is to put furiture in the item compare array as the 10000+ items or so. ANd then using the sort algorithms only show them on screens dedicated to furniture. Finally 1 new array with a hard 40 spots (10 rooms x 4 furiture = 40) that will hold all the furniture in use. A variation on the girls hard 20 item array. Then have 1 screen that will let you sort all the furiture to all the rooms at once. Finally I was thinking that most furniture will be quest rewards only as they will give room bonuses and new jobs. Any thoughts on this?

  1. I wouldn't make all the furniture quest rewards just the better/uncommon types (stuff that adds jobs or increase success rate). simple stuff that gives the girl a minor stat bonus while in the room should be buyable (like the mirror). I don't like the one screen idea either. maybe just showing the rooms as they are now and clicking on the furniture slot opens up the inventory and allows you to select a furniture for that slot. not sure how much coding that would be tho.

  2. Hmm... a little more on the furniture screen. My idea was that you would click on the rooms inventory, that would be displayed there, and that would go to a new screen showing all the rooms inventory as well as your inventory and you could then drag and drop to balance out furniture any way you would like it. This gives the advantage of being able to see everything in one screen rather then having to click through 10 screens trying to find the one with the grand piano. Also that way you dont have to go to 10 screens to add a potted plant to each room.

  3. what about just a button in each room called furnish, that takes you to another screen with that rooms furniture slots and your inventory? you still have to go to each room individually, but it is less info on one screen then furnishing 10 rooms at once, and leaves the room screen uncluttered.

  4. So atm, you cannot download new items into the game? I don't think I can, just making sure I don't miss out on anything.
