Suicide Booth

Quick update today, still busy getting ready for the release tomorrow. I've been busy mining enough code for NPCs. Altogether about 2,000 lines so far, of some pretty dense stuff with lots of math. 

Read the rest here!

Ehh, Thaum? What's with all these strange variables? : "vagHostility" - Dear sir, vaginas aren't hostile, ok, they might be yuck, but not hostile :D Then what's the deal with these? : implant, wombHealth, flagF, quality, flagM. Why do you keep track of both female and male genders on the same character not to mention their chromosome pairs? Then there's suicide? Oh gosh, the horror. I hope this won't turn out too strange :-/

vaginal hostility is a representation of the vaginal environment's hostility to sperm, but also includes quality of the cervical mucus and immune system response. It's why they have direct intra-uterine artificial insemination. Implant is a measure of several factors that come together to determine the sucessful implantation rate of zygotes. One, for example, is the sensitivity of the uterine lining to hormones released by new zygotes, which are required for implantation. (this is actually used as a method of weeding out unhealthy or genetically damaged zygotes, as they don't produce enough chemical to allow for implantation.) womb health is a representation of uterine damage caused by certain medical procedures and diseases. Chromosomes because futa. Explaining "suicide" is literally the main subject of this post, so I won't repeat it ;)

Noticed that "Count Slutula" (lol) is an 18-year-old elementary teacher with an associate degree. Quite an achievement. :D
