What am I working on?
So things have been quiet, but like I have said before the Discord server gets more updates and image about what I am working on.
Currently I am working on a mod manager system which will be integrated into the game, it will let you download, install, update, uninstall mods with a single click. It also allows you to more easily find mods which are requirements for another mod i.e content expansions.
I have most of this working already, I end went and added support for mod packs since it could piggy back off the requirements code. So with the click of a button you could download and install a whole series of mods.
Good news, this also includes hotfixes. So you can open the mod manager screen and install the hotfix directly. Some more good news, this also works on Android devices. So mobile users will be able to download hotfixes AND mods.
There is still a lot of UI work to do with it, I want you to be able to easily find all linked content for a girl(i.e all addons/expansions), search for modders/tags, update all mods which are out of date with a single button etc
There is also some work to do on a front end page where modders can upload new mods and update existing mods. I have done most of the backend scripting but still need to hook it up to a real hosted database rather than my test ones.

How can you mod on android if it's supported? Is therea guide to doing so?
It is not officially supported in any of the released versions, the best way would be to use JoyPlay to emulate the PC version of the game. You just need to make sure you are using the latest version of it and its renpy plugin or you will get errors.
When will it come out?
It's mostly done, and functional. Its mainly the backend and hosting stuff I need to change. My original plan didn't work out, so it was either keep it and only allow mods to be uploaded and updated by me or change it and allow modders to do it themselves like originally planned.
how to install hotfix on android?
Currently you cannot but the Android version is also the latest public version. When 0.5 releases you will be able to install them by just clicking the update button.
