New Patron's features & Final Release Date!
🕑 Added 2024-10-30 21:53:23 +0000 UTCHello my friends! I hope everything is fine with you!
We just completed our first round of testing on the AI features in Influencing! And let me tell you, it was very enlightening, to say the least. Watching the testers interact with the LLM—not only in-game but also outside of it—and seeing their frustrations, made me rethink how I’ll introduce this feature to you all.
So, in the past few days, I’ve been working hard to bring something special to our Patreon supporters. The result is: we’re setting up our very own AI server! This means that Patrons will be able to play with a private AI server hosted by me.
Initially, all Patrons will have access to the server, but I’ll be monitoring the quality/cost ratio. If it becomes unsustainable, I may restrict access to higher-tier Patrons until we find a balance that ensures the server is fun and functional for everyone.
With this setup, there will be one last delay for the release. But now, I finally have a date! The next Influencing update will be on 15/11/2024 for Patreon supporters, and one week later for the public!
So, to sum it up, the next update will bring improvements to the sex system, the introduction of AI, the ability to add custom families to the city, and some other small adjustments. This will be the last major update of this season. Future updates will be shorter and take less time, as these big updates tend to stress me out for various reasons.
And just to clarify the AI options: you’ll be able to use local AI, AI Horde (which didn’t perform well in tests...), and, if you’re a Patron, you’ll have access to our AI server with a roleplay-specialized LLM. For now, I won’t be adding connectivity with other external AIs due to the potential issues it could bring.
Good good?
Once again, thank you, everyone, for supporting Influencing! That’s all for now, my friends! Take care!
