How to cheat at Naked Ambition

Naked Ambition is a game designed to be played through many times to see different outcomes. But what if you don't want to do that? What if you want to see that new scene right now? Here's how to use console commands with Naked Ambition.

First, to open the console press shift+o, That will open a window that looks like this:

As you can see, I use a lot of console commands myself when making the game, if I had to play straight through to test things the game wouldn't be completed until 2050. Just type in the variable you want to change and voila, the Princess is instantly better at fencing or has a new tutor.

Here's a general list of commands, these are case sensitive.:

• week= Changes the week of the game, useful for advancing to the event you want
• faith/lore/etc= Changes one of the Princess's stats. Note that foreign is called foriegn in the code because I can't spell
• trainer= Changes your trainer. They're called vizier, evette, ulric, priestess, and enrique.
• trainerName.control = Changes where on the tranier's route the Princess is. these are different for every trainer so you'll have to exxperiment.
• trainerName.activityLevel = Controls what path you are on for trainers with branching paths. Note for Vizier this is used instead of .control.
• councilMemberName.favor = How much a council member likes the Princess. Their names in the code their occupation like dancer, scholar, etc. Not their name. The full list is dancer, scholar, inquisitor, merchant, general, nobleman, noblewoman
• councilMemberName.love= Changes a council member's affection level.

For card decisions, that's a lot more complicated. The system that ensures reloading doesn't change the outcome has a specific number for each decision, so while you can change that, you basically need a spreadsheet of the numbers or the code itself. Same with random events, to trigger the random event you want you need to know the event's ID. If someone wants to get all the numbers from the code and post them somewhere I don't mind, but I'm not going to do it personally. But if the event has an outcome you want, like increasing Evette's affection or favor, you can just increase those yourself regardless of the Princess's decision.

EDIT: Here's a console command to reset all card decisions: 

persistent.deSaveScummer = [0] * len(persistent.deSaveScummer)

Copy and past that into the console and you're good to go.

So that's how to bend reality to your will in Naked Ambition. I hope this helps you get to new content as the game gets longer.
