I'm glad you liked them. I'm pretty pleased with how they turned out.
1# Sarah
Due to the snarl of how Sarah is coded and interlocked w/Coleen, as well as Sarah's various interactions with others all taking her current personality into account, making such changes to her are prohibitively difficult. She's one of those parts of the game that can't be restructured to have new paths. Making another NPC instead to fill that role or expanding one that is more suitable works better.
2# Herm creatures
Oddly enough, I've heard the opposite said, where one fan was complaining about herms (and especially a herm player) having scenes where both sets of equipment were in use and they wanted only the one set in current use (for fucking or getting fucked) to be mentioned. That said, some herms in the game, when getting victory, are more focused on either fucking the player or riding the player, as that is their lustful goal. Some of those you mentioned are in need of revision, though the Hyena Matriarch scene is a scripted one for the challenge and, since it's not going to be repeated, doesn't need randomized variations.
Which NPCs did you have in mind? It's late, so most of the herms I can think of in the game right now either come with variation scenes to either top or bottom, or are specifically scripted to only want one or the other (Susan = bottom, Hadiya and Stella = tops).
3# Group events
There are some events like this out there already, but I can understand your wanting more. They do take a bit more work to write, as they require a full scene set be made for one-time fun, but there are some of them. Ones that come to mind right now are the 'Beach Party' event on the beach and the 'Cameo' event in the HRD. There's also some of this occurring as part of the 'CandyShop' event for the Sugar Ferrets and the 'Quiet Apartment Building' event to gain Rachel the mouse girl companion. Generally speaking, when you mobbed by lots of infected at once for an orgy, you can suffer a strong humanity hit, and so a game over scenario might be possible. I'll keep it in mind as a potential for a creature loss though. One of the main factors inhibiting that is how that sort of thing would mess with the ongoing scene should you fight one as part of an event.
As for the slut rats, when losing at pool (which does have an option to voluntarily lose), you'll either be on the receiving end of vaginal (if you have a cunt) or be made to give a blow job (if not). If I recall correctly, these scenes were made before the More/Less Anal, so there was no way to ensure that players uninterested in anal could avoid it.
4# Game mechanics
I'm not sure what you mean about items to help you search. What kind of item could you use?
Also, has been stated, you can hunt for events by typing 'hunt <text>', where <text> is any part of the text for the event you're seeking. To succeed at this, you'll need to:
- correctly be searching for a part of the event's name
- not have that text match with part of a creature's name, nor an explorable room's name
- be in the correct area to find said event
- be looking for an event that is still open (incomplete and active)
- if your text parameter matches more than one available event in the area, you'll find the first one in table order always, so either change the text to be more precise or ensure that other event is completed and closed
- succeed on a hidden roll (boosted by perception)
If your searching fails, the message you get popping up will tell you how you failed.
The Microwaved feat is available from the start during the 'Forgotten' game mode. Otherwise, it only becomes available once the main storyline quest with Dr. Matt has been advanced to the point he's gotten his first stage fully completed. The feat is not meant to be foolproof, though it does cover quite a few scenarios.
Anthro Shaft Beast
These are actually creatures made up by TwilightMaster which he (I believe) added into the game. You can find artwork of them at his
FA page. His art of them is somewhat buried in his gallery, but here's one of the
Anthro Shaft Beast and of the
Feral Shaft Beast. I should ask him at some point if it'd be okay to add some of his art of them to the game.
