As of the June build for the Starnova beta we will now be only including the one character that was promoted for that month per build. It is still possible to add your previous routes into the game if you were a Patreon for the previous build(s) however you will need access to your folder containing that previous beta and will also need to do a bit of copy and pasting.
The steps are simply to take the '*route.rpy' and '*data.rpa' files and move them from your older build directory '\game' and put it into your newer build directory '\game'. Please note you can only do this with newer beta versions as if you try and take a route from a newer build and put it in an older version then the assets (CGs, HCGs, sprites) will not be available which will cause the game to crash.
* = The name of the character for that route.
Example of moving content between betas:
Chapter 3 (Nemu) -> Chapter 4 (Mariya)
When selecting the centre at the end of the beta's common route this serves as the crossroads into the character routes and so as with previous builds you will need to select that character to start the desired content. Please note if the route hasn't been released yet or if you are missing the files detailed above if game will either crash at the end of the route or you will be returned to the main menu.
If you want to jump straight into the content you can do this using the developer console and following the steps below:
- Open the developer console using 'shift+O'
(you will need to start a new game / load a save first)
- Type: jump MARIYAMAR182018
(for Mariya's route), jump NEMUFEB102018 (for Nemu's route)
- Press the enter key
- Type: stop sound (if you started new game)
- Press the enter key
(if used the previous command)
- Type: stop music (if you started new game)
- Press the enter key
(if used the previous command)
- Type: exit
- Press the enter key
