I played this game in beta at least a dozen times, now I'm wondering if there are any cheat codes like there was in lltq so I can play an OP princess? If you're ok with me asking. Thank you so much for this game, it's so fun!
There are cheats but they're fiddly to use (Which is to say, they aren't designed as user-friendly Cheat Codes, so much as that you can type in stuff to directly edit all the variables if you know what they are in the first place, but some of them have long awkward names, so they aren't necessarily easy to edit)
I don't want to hand out directions yet because with the influx of players I want people to focus more on building up guides to how to get through the game without cheating :D
They'll come out eventually!
IDK if anyone's still interested, but when I was looking through the steam community for this game I found these 2 links also talking about how you can use cheat codes:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/3069630/discussions/0/598516531140305052/?ctp=2
ONLY USE THESE IF YOU HAVE ALREADY PLAYED THE GAME!!!! DO NOT WRITE GUIDES THAT INCLUDE CHEATING!
(It's weird enough when some people see a guide and think that's the best or only way to win - very not true - worse if they think cheating is!)
To bring up the code console
Press shift-o during gameplay. This will bring up an overlay where you can type code. (Obviously, don't type code that someone gives you if you don't understand it because you can destroy your game like this.) You can hit Escape at any point to exit the console and go back to the game.
To edit your skills
Input, for example:
skills['Sports'] = 50
(and hit enter after it to carry out the command) You have to spell the skill name correctly, including capitalising it, or it won't work. If you want to be sure you've got the right name or just want to check what the current value is, you can just enter
skills['Visual']
with no equal to set it to anything, and just hit return - it'll show you the current value that the skill is set to, or if you input an incorrect name it will give you a key error.
After tinkering with your skills you'll see that they look a little funky on the skills display. These edited skills may revert when you do other things that affect your skill bonuses like change clothes.
You should also see a mark on the saved game screen for saves made after you've messed with the console (this is mostly just a precaution in case of weird bugs, so we and you have a reminder that you may have made something work in a way it wasn't supposed to)
To see approval changes
Want a lot more info on what's going on under the hood, who's being upset by your actions, and why? Go to the code console and enter
persistent.debug = True
Now, whenever there's an approval change among the Electors, you'll get an overlay showing you how everyone's numbers shifted. To turn this off again, do
persistent.debug = False
