Gender Overhaul: Status Update

Added 2019-04-15 19:28:38 +0000 UTC

I'm working hard on the bug fixes from 0.21a (thanks everyone who reported things. You're helping out a ton). That should be released this weekend.

Unfortunately, there's been a bit of a snag: I'm not personally interested in the gender overhaul content (or the furry content for that matter), and the balance of "fun work" to "not-fun work" has become a problem. I'm happy to have it in the game, but working on it is sapping my motivation, and I need a break from it.

What this means for the next few patches:

I'm going to stabilize the gender overhaul content that exists, but postpone some of the new features for a future patch in order to retain my sanity. That means that this weekend's patch will be 0.21 instead of 0.21b, and will be followed by 0.22a. I wouldn't generally switch gears like this, but it's gotten to the point where I don't enjoy working on the game anymore, and that's one sacrifice I'm not willing to make.

0.21 will have:

Bug fixes
Fixed furry content for male slaves (except for heads and hooves)
Rules Assistant integration for the new gender overhaul variables

The future Gender Overhaul II voting option will have the rest of the planned features, including more clothes, more writing, and male-focused dairy furniture.

On the plus side, this means that the much anticipated Community Improvements Patch will be starting next week. I'm really excited about some of the new stuff that I have planned for that one, and will release a more complete description in the next week or so.
