[Neonate+ Release] Version 0.17.3
Added 2021-09-13 00:54:11 +0000 UTC
Hello everyone, Corintio here!
We are very happy to present this patch to our patrons today because we imagine that at least when it comes to the new user interface, it should be stable enough for you not to have any game-breaking problems on it!
We have also finally added the so promised threesome scene between Kalyskah, Harry and Margaret (Although we are still adding new scenes to it) and now you can at least get a glimpse of where the Puppeteers will be because Kalyskah can knock at their door and ask to come in.... which they won't allow until we finish developing their quest.
There's a lot else that we've done and here is the complete changelog:
Changelog - Version 0.17.3
Fixes
- Fixed Boris rotation during the new scene where he’s dominated by Kalyskah. Also did some slight improvements on the loops;
- J, I and E interactions will now open the new inventory;
- Fixed problems on the new inventory while interacting with Containers;
- Fixed dialogue displaying when characters was opening a shop, also fixed the dialogue retriggering when the shop was closed;
- Fixed luna repeating the line “I’m sorry…” during the second time you talk with the prostitutes on the Can’t Have it All questline;
- Fixed transition poses during the dialogue postures (The character used to play the same transition animation twice, now this will no longer happen);
- Fixed inconsistent width on saving slot manager;
- Kalyskah should now load the chosen hair, breast size and skin colour that the player has put on her instead of the default appearance when you open the new inventory menu. Her skin paleness and red eyes due to thirsty will also load properly;

- If the main menu is open, player will no longer be able to open the new inventory on the background (which was causing the game to unpause);
- Fixed a problem that was causing female NPCs not to have lipsync during cutscenes and dialogues.
Enhancements
- Pressing ESC will now close the inventory;
- Added some quest markers on Can’t Have it All questline;
- Created a wall sign to be at the place where the puppeteers will be;
- Improved the logic and performance of glowing crystals that will be used as posts at the Puppeteers building;

- Added a new NPC to the puppeteers building (Juniper);
- New short scene when Kalyskah knocks at the secret door to the Puppeteers place. The introductory quest will be implemented this month;

- Set Kylira and Tarten daily cycle in a way that they will be at the Puppeteers place during some parts of the day;
- Improved the way dices rolled are showed during negotiation dialogues with the undead;
- Slight optimizations on characters skin materials so hopefully the open world will consume less memory;
- Improved dialogue interface to match the new theme\quality we aim to have in the game
- New placeholder face to nurse Jessie (we are still improving both her and Loretta’s face);
- Improved navigation and looks on the new inventory UI;

Features
- New attribute tab that is linked with the new inventory. This tab will help the player to preview their statistics;

- New cutscene when delivering the Heirloom Lost questline in full completion: A threesome between Kalyskah and the couple. There are more animations to come for this quest so I recommend creating a save slot right before knocking at their door so you don’t need to play the cutscene again when the next update comes;

Known issues:
- Clothes won't have physics in the new inventory screen;
- We still want to improve the camera movement in the new inventory.
