DECISIVE VICTORY
Update 4th february 2019
- Adjusted and filled in Argent romance path.
- Finished the auction for people going there as the mc.
- Added some new variables regarding killing among other things.
- Various minor tweaks to content.
Note: The auction still has holes in it, but I will fill them out later. It is also VERY complicated, please let me know if you find things that doesn’t add up or flow. My head hurts, I am not responsible for that mess.

I got an error saying there was an unknown variable for “helmetkiss” when fighting Argent on the bridge. Then, I couldn’t continue from there.
omg omg omg…every update…make my life complete…
thank you again!
so quick read up…not done with the new update…
So tried Ortega path again…since its my favorite and main…
there is this moment where she ask about her flirting . Then we also get the old scene with the ‘half mat’ comment . its kinda redundant , dont you think? an idea would be for the 2nd scene…we could be suspicious if she is flirting with the owner…whats her name…since she is an old vet and if really she eat there all time…y’know 
got the argent scene with the choice of ‘showing tattoo&show your face’’ . I also looked at my stat…my mc in this run…has 0% friendship with argent . recommandation that those 2 options…the ‘show skin’ maybe for those who are friendly with her…and ‘show face’ for those who are romancing her ? .

Try restarting. A similar issue happened to me some time back. I think it’s just a bug that occasionally happens.

Yeah have no stat locks yet since I have very few stat adds written in yet. Can’t check for stuff people can’t get.

Holy cow Malin this is amazing!
And uhhh I messed up in the auction (oh no) but ehh I should have expected that 
just didn’t expect it to mess up like this cause it’s so gonna mess up my MC even more.
And I can’t even decide what choice to make in the last Argent scene. I DIDNT EXPECT IT. AT ALL. Talk about hard decisions… probably the scariest thing my MC has ever done.
Incoherent ramble aside, I love this update so much and I can’t wait to check out how else I can mess up the other routes!
Something I spotted on my quick play through:
In the scene with Ortega where the MC talks about the therapist visit, there’s a wrong pronoun use for Ortega (circled).
These bug spotting stuff may contain spoilers!!!
In the meet with Orynx, after making the second choice of I’ll wait until she’s through the hole, then follow , I was led to this scene that felt incomplete:
Then after that, I was directed back to the stealmachine scene where the MC clashed with the two mods. But my MC had already taken them out earlier on.
Edit: I managed to get the gun previously but after I was looped back to this scene, the game assumed I didn’t get the gun yet.
Here’s the code if it helps!

Hmm… been gone a while, over 100+ posts about herald.
Graphic Details About Torturing Herald
How about we kidnap him, tie him to a titanium chair welded to the ground, and shackle his limbs with titanium chains, then walk in to the room while one light is shining over his head, and rip his toenails off, then his fingernails, then we get to skinning his feet and hands, then his arms, after that his body, soon we will cut his fingers of inch by inch, if he still lives, then cut his arms and legs inch by inch, by then he should of had a very painful and long lasting death.
EDIT:
Oh, cutting his ears and nose of would also have some satisfying results, maybe scooping his eyes out and plucking each strand of hair on his body peace by peace. Or putting him in a gravity chamber and Turing it to high power then -10000 gravity, in rapid succession, he would be crushed then floating then be crushed again…
he surely deserves this for his idiotic tendency to act friendly and kind, wouldn’t you agree @LordNanachi?

First run. Went in quiet, puppet-hacked security, got the gun, got out before anyone knew I was there. It’s what my Cautious/Anonymous MC would have wanted, but I know I missed out on so much…

She will die. She will fall. She will not prevail. She will fail. Everyone she loves and cares about will die. I will not let her live. She must die. I will end her for her own sake.
In my first playthrough of the update I openly attacked and went through the front doors. From there it took me straight to having the cylinder without really any explanation to what it may be or why we have it or even how I got it or anything. I also earlier agreed to help Mortum, but never got any chance to get her gun in this route. I’m not sure if this was intentional here.
In another playthrough I decided to go in as the villain to attend the auction. The only plot break here was already listed I believe with game going from grabbing the gun to repeating the auction stealing the cylinder. I also noticed in this route that the variable for having the gun "gotgun" only sets if you use nanavores on the mods.
I also noticed the variable "argentregenereveal " isn’t set anywhere despite having different checks for it during the interactions with Argent.
All that aside I love the new update, but I have no idea which route I want to stick with. Too many choices with too many giant consequences.

Saw the Argent path through code-diving, earnestly attempting to chart a course there through normal gameplay.
Couldn’t do it. My MC never got a chance to learn about the prototype at all…
General concerns about the time-space continuity:
(since I apparently wasn’t rich or extravagant enough to get invited, all queries are about the break-in path.)
Discontinuity error.
I went in without any knowledge of the prototype device, just to get the gun. Used a bomb to shut down security.
A couple of labels later, there is no mention of the gun, and I’m getting this:
Traced the code, and it seems all unsubtle break-ins eventually converge to [label:attackelevator], which is still applicable to my continuity. It then automatically directs to [label:stealmachine] without checking if I know about it or not.
Timeline and layout:
Just checking if I have everything correct.
The Casino has a general public level. From there, a private elevator connects to the Auction Hall level. The Auction Hall has a Front Stage where all the villains are and a Backstage where the stuff is during the auction. There is also a Storage area somewhere in there.
The items are in Storage before the auction, and brought out to the Backstage when auction starts . They are brought to the Front Stage when it is auctioned. The gun is auctioned before the prototype.
There are two things that basically determine our path. One is what we went in for (steal gun and/or prototype, or just to humiliate HG), the second is whether we sneakily take out the dampeners, or openly wreck security.
The quiet_presteal path (thief MC only) is going in before the auction even starts. Both items are in Storage. We automatically know about both of them, and get in and out without incident.
The quiet_stealgun path : disable dampeners, use telepathy to sneak to Auction Hall (front stage), cause a power-outage (somehow) precisely when the gun is being auctioned, and nab it during the confusion.
We leave without ever knowing the prototype or Oryx ever existed.
The quiet_stealboth path: After nabbing the gun from the Front stage, go Backstage for the prototype. Meet Oryx for the first time and maybe recognize her. She gets the prototype, and we… meekly walk away?
The quiet_stealprototype path. We refused to steal the gun and may or may not know about the prototype beforehand. Disable the dampeners and sneak into the auction hall, arriving after the gun is sold. Wait until the prototype is being auctioned, trigger the blackout, and nab it from the Front stage. Oryx finds us when we’re escaping.
Loud_Stealgun and loud_stealboth paths currently missing.
Loud_stealprototype: Go in when the prototype is being auctioned. Cut the power before going in, nanovore the elevator to get to the Auction Hall, nab the prototype from the Front Stage. Oryx finds us when we’re escaping.
When exactly do the dampeners go down?
I chose to go in quietly, during the auction, by controlling a security guard. When I picked my break-in entrance, I got this:
And subsequently started using my telepathy.
But then, a few pages later:
So, did the dampeners get turned off before or after I walked in the door?
(Also, is the power outage a side effect of taking out the dampeners?)

There is a pronoun error during the dinner with Ortega, I had the fashionable suits style and it uses the female pronouns even though Ortega was male in this playthrough
