The story continues!

Stone Fox Studios is pleased to announce the release of Chapter 7 for Steam customers!

Titled "Cause and Effect," the player will navigate the main character through the gradually-unraveling consequences of the decisions made through the preceding story, while opening up new branches to explore as his time on the lush Pacific paradise of Tonalu approaches its end.

Chapter 7 is easily our largest yet, weighing in at:

2033 original static renders
4 animations
10 new Songs
7000 lines of code/dialogue
23 achievements
2 cameos/crossovers with other titles

Of course, you'll find Stone Fox's unique blend of humor, drama, and intrigue has returned for the latest instalment, along with our trademark focus on quality and delivering sexy scenes with beautiful and compelling ladies who feel a little more fleshed out than the norm for the genre.

We hope you enjoy this update as much as we enjoyed creating it!

This week's patch adds the "2023 2027 Expansion" scenario, adds the depth chart screen from the draft to your list management panel, and makes a lot of tweaks to the match engine!

First, some friendly modders have made some great content for the game, including some historical scenarios, available in the game's Discord. To better support these scenarios, recent patches have allowed the game to automatically update teams and rules from year to year, and this means mods can expand or merge teams automatically as time passes. This new feature has been used in the new scenario to add a new team to the game for long plays without anyone needing to do anything manual. This has not been made the default scenario, though, per user feedback.

The match engine has also received some fairly significant tweaks. A bug meant substitutes were never being subbed on after a certain point, and no code existed for tactical substitutes until this version, so you should now see the AI make tactical subs. Substitution rules for each league were one of the league editor variables that have been added as well and future support for number of substitutes in a league is planned.

The match engine has also been re-weighted fairly significantly. New rules on when and where players will pass the ball backwards have been implemented. The kick-to-handball ratio was slightly in favour of kicks and has been slightly re-weighted to be more handball-friendly. The other major change impacted the players being nominated for the awards at the end of the game - goals were significantly down-weighted and a new predictive formula which up-weights effective disposals has been implemented.

The depth chart panel on the draft screen was always meant to be duplicated and a friendly nudge from a user means it's not available on your list management screen. A small number of additional league editing variables were added to the league editor screen as well and some really dumb errors with save games were fixed.

Finally there were some minor adjustments to how form and fitness is calculated, and AI coaches will delist fewer players at the end of the season.

Hope you enjoy the new version!

Version 2023.1.16 (released 6 May)
- Fixed: players with non-forward primary positions and forward secondary positions were not getting some forward bonuses
- Fixed: code which flags whether the substitute has been used now exists at the moment of interchange, not when the interchange is decided, to ensure cancelled interchanges don't make you lose the sub
- Fixed: bug which was preventing substitutes from entering the game has been removed
- Fixed: Substitution rules now work properly across leagues
- Fixed: Variables relating to 666 rule and which days games should be scheduled for were not saving properly
