Friday Progress Report 190
The request system is done, each girl has a list of her favorite foods which she may request in specific amounts, with or without a specific main ingredient, and the taste targets of the dish are adjusted towards the tastes preferences of the girl, so, a 10/10 pizza for Sasha might not be as good for Mint, so make sure you check the taste targets before cooking.
There was more progress on the trailer, we had a problem animating the materials, but it is fixed now (the way we create the meshes of the girls doesn’t really allow direct modification of the materials or the mesh itself externally, so we made a workaround for the trailer scene only.
We started working on the new trait system now, increasing the amount of plant traits from 4 to 9, adding many new traits and adding more information with a new trait tooltip, due to limitations of the current seed tooltip this new trait tooltip will only appear when mousing over traits in the plant panel since it already uses the new system, so until we redo the entire UI to use the new system players will only be able to inspect traits using the plant panel (pressing E on a plant) and not on the seed tooltip.
