Talk:Life Hacks/Xandergod(Rosemance)/E-C/Keep it, but look over some of the other cheats you might want to manage

Just so you know, I had planned on Xander not being able to code for Life since he doesn't know Q°. As a quantum computing language from the future, the current programming languages that he know are little help, and he's got about 300 years of advances in quantum mechanics to catch up on to understand the underlying principals behind the language. He would need either Rose or Loki to teach him the language before he starts making his own hacks. --Elerneron (talk) 02:14, 28 February 2017 (CET)

I get that, but in this case the script is already there. Just about all he would be doing is changing a single number in the already existing code. I actually do not know any programming languages, and I pull stuff like that all the time. All it means is that I cannot write new things from scratch. (One possible issue though would be whether or not he can figure out where to plug in the new program. Using my method, he could easily hack the program and change the youngest item from 6 to 1, but he might not be able to copy-paste the program to a new location with that variable change without knowing the system.)

Hmm, you're right. I wasn't really thinking of the brute force approach. But yeah, he probably needs at least a bit of help unless he modifies the file for everyone . . . since he has direct server access . . . but that's sure to alert the game admin. --Elerneron (talk) 03:16, 28 February 2017 (CET)

So, my thoughts on the thing is that if he selects to make the new program, he will copy the code with the variable changed, but not know where to plug it in and just save it in a folder somewhere until he can get instructions on how to handle that one. He is sure to be smart enough to realize he doesn't want to alert the admins like that. Jemini (talk) 04:00, 28 February 2017 (CET)

If knocking up his own daughters would be w turn on for him, teaching his sons to knock up their sisters would presumably also be as much of a turn on? For that reason, I opt to turn off the gender cheat; he's about to be getting so many people pregnant that he will inevitably have a lot of daughters naturally anyway! --Jackmaster (talk) 09:24, 28 February 2017 (CET) Edit As a side note, would Xander be able to use the hacks to speed up the pregnancy, allow the birth's to happen without causing pain (as that level of pain would kill a one year old!) and speed the aging of his children (so he can have a variety of ages of kids to sleep with, not just all three-month-year-olds)?
