Course of Temptation July Monthly Update (v0.6.7) (Patreon)

Hello friends! The July update is here. This month's major features:

AmateurPornTown, the X-rated video website: You can view videos here to relax and learn a thing or two about sex. You can also sign up here with sufficient Exhibitionism skill or some exhibitionist inclinations, or through an introductory event with the Classroom Harasser. Once signed up, you can use your phone or a laptop to record any encounter (by yourself or with a willing NPC), which will generate a video that you can edit and reorder on the video site before publishing it.

Weather algorithm (mostly) finalized: The weather system itself is now more or less finalized, besides further tweaking, bugfixes, and adding new events related to it. Further updates in this area will relate more to locations that leverage seasonal changes and special seasonal events like Renewal Festival and Harvest Eve. We've added some events around town and campus only available in certain seasons, and we'll continue to expand in this area too.

Snowy worldstate: The first heavy snowfall in winter will transition the world into a snowy state, which can lead to some new events not otherwise available. This also changes the look of the maps and most outdoor location images. The first above-freezing day in spring will lead to the snow receding once again.

Clothing wetness: Heavy rainfall now has consequences: wet clothing may stick to your body, and certain types and colors of fabric will turn sheer! Wetness accumulates over time in rain, though certain events may soak you much quicker. Carrying an umbrella or wearing a raincoat will mitigate this effect.

Temperature effects have been made less punishing as well: the negative need modifiers have been reduced, and the system has been tweaked so that it's easier to dress for the weather. In particular, sticking to cooler clothing in warm weather will no longer cause you to be more overheated than you would be otherwise. We may continue to tweak this. Remember, if you don't like temperature or weather effects, you can turn them off under difficulty options.

As always, a huge thanks goes out to the volunteers who contributed to this update, as well as to the generous supporters who continue to make this project possible.

If you're not aware, we're maintaining two parallel development cycles:

The monthly update might contain new event sets, new locations, or new mechanics, but usually focuses on extending existing content or polishing existing systems. It comes out once a month with whatever we got done in that time period... hence the name!

The roadmap update checks off one or more items on the roadmap, adding extensive new mechanics and a bunch of related new events in one go, often fundamentally changing how the game can be played. It usually takes multiple months.

Thank you and I hope you enjoy!

Release notes

Added some new hairstyles, distinguishing features, and clothes (with contributions from HeeHo)

Implemented various optimizations and performance improvements, especially felt when rolling events in locations with large numbers of NPCs (contributed by StealthyLewds)

Added a new, kinder variation to the “nerd with books” event on campus (contributed by StealthyLewds)

Implemented a detailed tooltip for NPC names that shows a lot of relevant info without needing to click through to the View Person dialog (contributed by noonycurt)

Implemented a system for wet clothes (contributed by noonycurt)

Clothes gradually grow wet when outside in precipitation… or sometimes all at once, during certain events

Clothing of certain types and colors will become transparent when wet

Clothing will dry gradually over time, faster if it’s warmer, or you can dry it all at once in a bathroom or by doing laundry

Umbrellas, raincoats, and the like will prevent your clothing from getting wet

Added various weather-related events (with contributions from noonycurt)

In bad weather, outdoor hangouts will be less populated with NPCs and indoor hangouts more populated

Added a quick forecast when waking up so you can plan for the day, if you have either weather or temperature effects enabled

Added some winter-themed maps and location images that change after the first winter snowfall

You can now decline new rules from your dominant partner, though at the cost of some attitude

If the PC has multiple dominants making rules for them, each will only care about rules they’ve set themselves (in ongoing saves, this only applies to newly made rules)

Belatedly added story hints for ClickbaitTV and writing minicareers

The River Rat career now provides a bit more feedback about when you can expect your next promotion (contributed by StealthyLewds and Starlight)

You can now set history length (the number of times you can hit the game’s back button) to between 1 and 40 (if indexedDB is enabled) or 5 (if it isn’t). Note that increasing this number will directly increase save size and may cause performance issues

Added an in-game amateur X-rated video website where you can watch videos or sign up as a model yourself (if you have Exhibitionist skill or inclinations)

Added an event with the Classroom Harasser that introduces the site if you haven’t already signed up

Added the ability to record encounters once you’ve signed up from the site, if you have a phone or laptop

NPCs may or may not agree to be recorded, depending on their inclinations and relationship to you — naturally, exhibitionists will generally be the most eager

Recording the encounter creates a video that you can edit and reorder on the video site prior to posting

Listing a video for free will gain you more popularity, which you will then want to leverage by posting paid videos

Many fixes and tweaks

A reminder that if you participated in early access, that version will no longer be updated until the next early access period — it's time to move to the public version!
