Got this error after only inviting one person to a party. If I’m understanding the error, I dont think he showed up.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

can i get some tips for raising target weight? i’ve seemed to heavily stagnated at around 250 lbs.

[burntmagic]

The best way i found is to have parties with people higher weight than you and people who encourage you to gain weight. I found it got a lot tougher around the same target weight you did, but i’ve been able to get it over 300 and keep it there.

As you get bigger there are fewer people bigger than you and fewer people encouraging you to gain, so it naturally gets harder.

Edit: also always say those any amount bigger than you are hot if asked, as well as saying it’s hot when you outgrow clothes and weigh yourself after not having done so in a while (if you gained weight).

Thanks to all for the bug reports. I have fixed or am working on all of them, for the next version.

I was recently was between jobs allowing for a lot of quick responses and updates. I just recently started a new job meaning my response time and new versions will probably be slowed.

@Expeng

I love when I throw a party and the only person who shows up is someone I’ve never seen in-game before

Yea, the party code needs refining, working on this. I intend for the party to introduce you to new people as well as allow you to see selected friends.

This happens when yo try to use a car. And, it loops indefinitely.

Are you using a older save? I cannot see why line 118 would cause a key error, nor can i recreate the issue.

@seigneurseiglenoir

If you are doing one block of high-intensity exercise but want to (and cannot) do less exercise, try dedicating an additional block to exercise. While it seems counter-intuitive to dedicate more time to exercise to do less exercise, you are more likely to choose lower-intensity workouts with more time dedicated to exercise, and these two blocks of exercise can be less exercise overall than one block of high-intensity exercise.

Right direction wrong conclusions and logic. Number of exercise actions taken has no bearing on the ai’s check/choice for the exercise option that decides how intense the workout is. However a more intense exercise option selected by you or the ai can result in your character not wanting to work out x times in a day, or blowing off the exercise during the day when it is executed. The exercise option is like selecting how far to run, every time you do the exercise action.

Hey, question: What will the mirror feature look like?

To start with a text description of the character, right now the mirrors implications in the game are there its text is just set to the current place holder till all descriptions are written. At some point i’m either going to have to learn how to make drawings/graphics of people or find an artist to do so. I intend for it to also give you a image of your character with the text that ideally would match with the current description.

@archazy

Adding onto the mirror feature question: what does it do? i used it at high weight and it seemed to make me want to exercise more

Your character is as informed about their weight measurements and looks as you are. For example lets say you weigh 150lbs and weigh yourself and see that your 150lbs. Then gain 10lbs, also your target weight is 150lbs. Until you weigh yourself to see that you gained 10lbs to 160lbs your character is also just as ignorant as you thinking they only weigh 150lbs even though they weigh 160lbs. The implication of this is that they don’t know they need to loose weight till they know their over their target weight. Same with the mirror, not knowing you look fatter means your character does not know they need to loose weight.

@zdeerzzz

@zdeerzzz

@archazy

So how does raising your target weight work exactly? Does this raise passively over time as you get bigger? Or is it only affected by outgrowing clothes, and saying if you like someone’s body,along with others suggestions? Also how much bigger then you do they need to be for saying you like them to raise your target weight?

Ok, so if you haven’t noticed my game tends to with hold a lot of numbers and info in regards to whats worth what, if people know the value of things they get to adsorbed into min maxing to get a result instead of just playing along. That is why your weight and measurements are not real time updated and rather only updated when you actually weigh your self or measure yourself, i’m trying to immerse you into your character, rather than being an omniscient controller of your character. This is why you don’t get a number for greed, fitness, happiness, or fullness. it should not matter the number of happiness points only that your partially happy or fully happy. same with a lot of things. I consider the target weight the same, stop worrying about how to min max the numbers, just play along. All i will say is what i said before which is multiple factors play into it, one of which is the players ideal weight, determined from your choices during some scenes and actions. Whats is also good to remember is there is no way you could easily calculate what it should be or is without spreadsheet software like excel and a lot of data from the game, even if i did tell you what all goes into it. So please try not to worry about it.

The players ideal weight which is not the same as target weight is the only variable thats in your direct control via menu options the rest is math and interactions with npc’s.

I already have answered this as much as i’m willing to. The game has many more complex mechanics to be used that can help you. Get creative!

[maro.dragonofthesea]

It was a fresh file; I don’t use save files when playing WIPs.

[burntmagic]

Congratulations on the new job! Still excited about future updates, even if they are less frequent.

[Expeng]

Congratulations on the new job! I’m excited to see where this game goes from here, but I understand real life takes precedence over this. Even if the updates take a while, I’ll be glad to see what this game becomes.

[zdeerzzz]

Should you start the game with…

• Best possible fitting clothes
• Clothes that can be put on(current implementation)

[zdeerzzz]

Should different jobs and locations have dress requirements, like nicer clothing or specific dress codes?

• Yes
• No

[bobs532.1]

I think being able to encourage others to gain (both people supporting your gain and those against it) so that their weight (and therefore tolerance to weight) would increase, would be a great way to solve the, “no one’s supporting my gain problem.”

[donnyboi]

I may be wrong but I see no interactions between and car size I=my character is over 400lbs and idk if my character isn’t big enough or something along those lines if its already in the game

That’s why you can feed others at parties! However changing a npcs mind about what your target weight should/would not, necessarily be affected by what they weigh or want to weigh. You can want to be fat yourself but not want your significant other or friends to be fat. Also it can be flip flopped and you can want to be skinny yourself and but like others fat.

Cars are in the game but i have not gotten around to fully implementing them and their effects, or their events, for the most part their a place holder. You are right that currently car size does not effect you depending on your weight in the current version.

[TotallyAMetrocop]

I’m definitely looking forward to the descriptions of your PC struggling to fit into the car

[ThatOneCoyote]

Another issue I just noticed, there is no ability to cancel pool subscriptions. If you get a house and already had the pool subscription, it will instead give you a pool by default. Final pool problem is that swimwear wont unequip when you out grow them so you can technically still wear a bikini even if you discarded it.

[zdeerzzz]

What is your goal weight for your character?

• 200-
• 225
• 250
• 275
• 300
• 325
• 350
• 375
• 400
• 425
• 450
• 475
• 500
• 550
• 600
• 650
• 700+

[ThatOneCoyote]

My goal weight isnt so much of a weight preference as it is a highscore. I’ve got smaller goals i want to get to (like being bigger around than I am tall) but my end goal is to see how far I can push the character’s weight.

The game has no hard coded limit to character size or weight, most limits are soft limits imposed by interactions and peer pressure. I guess i’m not quite sure the weight you would run out of clothing sizes but if someone achieved that and was able to tell me i would probably add more sizes or a custom tailoring option for sizes beyond the current.

[zdeerzzz]

By the way size 60 baggy clothing has measurements of 170.5inches 167inches 175inches so most all characters at that point would be almost twice as wide as they are tall
