I’ve had my head shoved into digging into Android things for most of the last week. I decided that using an emulator was kind of a shonky way to really go about it, so I hunted down an appropriately low end android tablet to use as a testing device, something representative of a good number of years of potential devices people would actually end up using. Using that I ran into a couple things that absolutely needed to be fixed and then started to look into performance things, identifying a few places we could do better to make the game work better on lower-end devices – most of that work is still pending, but having an actual real device to see it first hand has helped to find things far better than wondering if its emulator jank or an actual problem to look into.
And then I had to spend most of today massaging the process through the build process to deal with all the stupid android shit that needed to be handled to get things working. Got there in the end…
Back to da codemines.

Bad end? 😀
Also where do I find the new enemy?
I found her pretty quickly in the mines on the station. She keeps crashing my game anytime I try and ride her after her defeat though.
After the first time you encounter her, you can encounter her and just keep walking while on zeng shi, so once you can get her to stalk you, you’re better off moving to Mengha, where you can’t run when you encounter her.
She crashed on me too, after opting to “pay” her back for what she did to me after I lost.
how do you beat her, I get her shield down even on easy mode then every swing does like 2 damage, is she immune to physical damage?
I have to stun lock her with headbutt then use a rail gun with the armor piercing perk and it still takes a while.
She is ridiculously resilient to all forms of damage, though if you have a big dick she REALLY likes it, at least according to my sense thingy, wouldn’t know how effective it is since I didn’t have one.
!
Downloadable build? At last my time has cum. Got a lot of catching up to do
After playing around a little more it seems the tweaks to the racial scoring system has turned all of my halfbreed characters into fullbreeds.
Even newly created characters have enough points to be considered fullbreeds.
Geddy has more work to do on the racial score system so it is not in a completed state.
What is pudding panic? can’t seem to find any info
From what I remember it’s a codex story.
I’m not sure if this is something that could be changed, but from I understand an app developer has to make tweaks to the app for the top notification bar and bottom gesture bar to not appear. CoC II does this too and causes a letterbox effect and basically shrinks the app view.
Unless that’s what the fullscreen button is for, in which case it doesn’t work in the apk version.
New character needs some tweaking. You can leave the tile you encounter her on and 2 of the scenes crash (riding and cuddle fuck 2nd round).
Yeah the scene for banging her with male parts crashes after round 2 aswell
The leaving part is not a problem if you encounter her enough to begin her stalking thing, then you can just move to mengha and wander around the southern jungle, when you encounter her there you can’t just walk off.
No console commands yet? On either mobile or desktop?
i cant beat her, she hits me though my shields like its not even there
Is Sophora supposed to hit through shields?
I cant beat her with my level 10 tech spec, even on Easy Mode. :/
Just use Paralyzing Shock and you should be fine
Not OP but was having the same problem. Your advice works I always forget about Paralyzing Shock.
New Anyx scene ain’t showing up.
The andriid build runs pretty well, but there’s an issue where the pop-ups for buttons don’t stay even when touching and holding. I’m guessing it’s because the game is looking for a mouseover event of some kind and a touchscreen can’t simulate that the same way.
Same problem. Legacy build works fine. Maybe transfer part of the code?
Same issue.
I hope they’ll look into this soon. It’s unplayable without that flavour text imo
Not sure if it’s possible, but it would be nice if the app could minimize the top status bar like the web app does, for more screen space on smaller devjxes
Why not get someone to work on a mobile-adapted interface for both TiTS and CoC2? It would be a good idea in my opinion.
Where can you find this new enemy in zang shi exactly ?
She will attack you in the mines if you meet the conditions for her activating. I.e. beating a lot of jumpers, or the forge hound and slave pit boss, etc. Basically make yourself enough of a nuisance that Shock Hopper sends her personal hitman after you.
Once you encounter here, you have a choice to decide whether she will be a reoccurring threat or just a crazy one off encounter. Careful, she is VERY strong, has a bad end if you lose to her too much, and can follow you to other worlds not just Zeng Shi.
Encounter fatal error, could be me. Imported old save to new android build. When on Dhaal, the centre building ( brothel I think) entering its tile produces a fatal error, other locations seem fine.
The android build looks good, but the button descriptions don’t appear, when I hold my finger over the button the description blinks for a millisecond so it’s impossible to read.
how do we find android data base to see custom bust you can load?
yeah laquine !
i wanna recruit them !
You probably don’t. She seems a little psycho murder happy. Definitely more ‘Professional hitman come to murder you in your sleep’ vibes than the usual lets fuck everything that moves vibes you see from the Jumpers
*looks over the top of my glasses at Tess*
…and yet…
Does Sophora have a quest to find out more about her or is it just her combat encounter at the moment?
Time to cuddle the evil bun-bun …
Does she have any content after beating her? Or is it just the she hunts you continually?
I am intrigued to find out what this whole “mystery” around this amazing new bunbun the game has implied. I adore what little I’ve seen so far, and I need more.
My theory is that she’s LDC and Shock Hopper’s kid but i don’t know how long he’s been the head honcho or how old any of them really are, that’s probably why she has a scar on her throat because she was used to send a message to her parents. Don’t know much since no one mentions her in the base.
Where do you find out more about her? My only interactions I’ve seen have been sex stuff and threatening emails. I don’t see any options for interrogation or something after beating her.
Would it be possible to get a full changelog since the last android update?
Fk yeah Android release!!! only way I tend to play these games ^^.
now we can lay in bed while playing this thanks Gedan!
I don’t care for the ever increasing number of enemies that ignore shields at this point in the game. Kinda makes being a tech specialist feel bad when you just get two hit by enemies because they ignore your defensive abilities. The solution is to spam stuns on her, that doesn’t feel fun or interesting, and even worse if I bump into her with low energy then I’ve just lost. It’s not a fight, it’s a check of how much energy I had when this random event triggered. If I can afford three stuns I win and if I can’t I lose.
What weapons are you using? If you aren’t already, you could try a Stun Chance weapon like the Custom Shock Gear or the Shock Bow. Stun Chance was changed some time ago to take Physique/Aim into account, so you should get Stuns fairly regularly if you keep it high.
Power Potions from Vending Machines now go into your inventory instead of being automatically used, stack up to 10 and can be used in combat without limit. I’ve heard there’s a 1/200 chance of getting the Dove Balm effect, though.
I got into the habit of keeping a NaN Deconstructor or Hirudo Devourer to heal up after the Flamer. It might help here.
But yes, bypassing Shields is an effect they should use sparingly.
Agreed. They should reduce the amount of dmg it can do as well, cause losing half your health in one hit is rather distressing.
Can confirm that you can scumbag Sophora’s fight using the heavy slut ray gun – decent stun rate against her and heavy lust dmg. Depending on your stats/luck, she can still get in at least a shot or two, but will still go down at max lust.
I think they are running into Superman syndrome here: they get bad guys who are so powerful they can trivially one-shot you, but if you find their Kryptonite, you trivially one-shot them. Paralyzing Shock, Slut Ray (stun), Slut Ray (stun), Slut Ray (stun) win. Turn that around – how would I feel as a player if an opponent were able to do that to me?
At least if you lose it’s not a Bad End.
And then there is the problem of suddenly knowing her name before it is introduced in the text; a similar problem to what happened with the command deck expansion.
And then the various Parser errors and crashes.
I really think that in the admirable effort to maintain a weekly release cadence, they are letting Quality Control slip.
When is the next level cap?
Will there be a hotfix for the Sophora bugs or is that going to be fixed next patch? She keeps crashing my game.
Will Dr. Badger get any future content for sending her to Gastigoth? Or will this stay a dead end for her content, so the player can never do anything with her?
Is there any way to import a save file from the legacy version of tits to the new app?
There is a button in the last version of the legacy AS that lets you convert your save.
Yea as DrunkZombie mentioned, you first have to select the “Save to File” option in the TiTS legacy save/load menu and save it to your device as a .tits save file. Then in that same menu, select the “Convert File” option and choose the .tits file you just created previously, you’ll then be prompted to then save the file as a separate .json save file. That .json file is then what you use with the JS version, just navigate to the TiTS JS save/load menu and select the “Load from File” option and open the .json file.
Note: In my experience, TiTS JS will teleport your character and ship to the Tavros Station shipyard upon loading in from the converted .json file. I would recommend that, if you just created a character, finish the FIRST-14 tutorial dungeon and return to Tavros before converting your file.
‘Export’ converts a slot save directly. The created file is still imported with ‘Load from File’ in JavaScript.
Where can I find .Json File in my phone since when I select export file after that I can’t seem to find it in download or anything in the new version
It’s been a while since I last played, but is it normal to not have any pictures for the characters at all? Is there a separate image pack to download?
I don’t know how hard it would be for you to change this, but it would be nice if the new Android app could be moved to an SD card the way the old Android app could be. It would be very helpful on phones with very limited internal storage space.
The old Android app also ran a lot smoother/faster, but it sounds like you knew that already.
I think the biggest issue though is the tooltips that almost always refuse to stay open (that other people have mentioned also). They’ve been broken with every JavaScript version, not just the new app, of course.
Question, how can I trigger the Love Starz expansion? I did everything including getting the foursome scene but I still can’t trigger the scene when Pink mentions about vacations.
I’ve heard people talking about changing class a couple times in the past, is that something actually possible? Didn’t see it in cheat menu or anything but thought I’d ask just for clarification, if it’s not too much trouble!
To my knowledge there’s no way to do this short of editing your save file. Changing class would require changing all of your perks which are unique to each class, as well as some items are variants unique to certain classes.
Alrighty, appreciate the info!
As weird as this is gonna sound but is there going to be more Nastizia?
For some reason anytime I try to have sex with something in the android version it crashes and hangs almost immediately afterwards. Plays fine otherwise.
