preparation and problems

In preparation to the upcoming alignment feature I have moved all current alignment code from OSA to OStim. As an end user you won't really notice any difference, other than maybe a slight increase in performance. But from the code perspective that enables a lot more options for us and also is one step closer to removing the requirement on OSA. Now all OSA is still doing is playing sounds and showing a UI.

Sadly I had some issues with my internet this weekend. As in I had no internet at all in periods of several hours. I don't know how much you know about coding, but a big part of it is to just look up the stuff you don't know. And when it comes to SKSE plugin development and C++ there is a lot I don't know by memory. So I am constantly looking stuff up on the internet.
Without an internet connection that wasn't possible, though. So all I could work on was the stuff I already had on my computer. In this case I chose to rework Devour as it is entirely written in Papyrus. Papyrus is easy, I don't have to look up how stuff works in there, as I already know. Also Moon is going to add some vampire feeding animations soon, so it felt like a good time to do it.

So there will be a new release of Devour soon. That particular release will not be early access, as functionally it does the exact same thing as the prior version. It just does it differently and so will be incompatible with all current versions of OpenSex. So the only people who need that new version (and also the only ones who will be able to use it) are the ones that are subscribed to Aces patreon or Moons boosty.

My internet is back up now, but it wasn't gone for the first time in the past few days and maybe it won't be gone for the last time. Afaik my provider is doing some maintenance work right now. So I don't yet know how much time I can spend on OStim development.
