Activity Maintenance Screen

The Activity / Interaction Maintenance Screen
Okay guys and gals, here’s the science bit! This is the most complicated part of the game and (for some reason) the bit that Dude loves to fiddle around with - when he’s not fiddling around with me, that is. :) The Activity Maintenance screen allows you to change, add and remove activities in the database. It’s pretty powerful and a great way of making the game truly your own. And it just keeps getting better once you realize that you can share activities with other users.

Overview:
This screen allows you to add, change, delete and prune (mass delete) interactions from the Secret Desires activity database. To show the Activity Editor, press the Activity Editor button in the main menu screen.

Finding / Searching Activities:
We've included many powerful search functions in this game to help you edit and review the activity database. 

    Description Text Search:
    To find activities with a specific search string (a phrase or word) type the word or phrase you want to look for into the Descriptive Text box. Then, press F7 or select "Search by Description Text" from the main menu. 

    Favorite Search:
    To find activities marked as favorites select "Search for Favorites" from the main menu.

    Date Created or Date Modified Search:
    To find activities created / modified on or after a specific date, select "Search by Date Created / Modified" from the main menu and choose the date you want. 

    Creator Search:
    To find activities created by a specific person, select "Search by Creator" from the main menu. A list of the creators of all the activities in the database will be displayed. Choose the person whose activities you want to search for. 

    Used Activities:
     To find activities that have been used during gameplay, select "Search for Used Activities" from the main menu. 

    Badly Rated Activities:
    To find activities that have been rated badly during gameplay, select "Search for 0% Rated Activities" from the main menu. Use this control to search for activities you told the game that you didn’t enjoy. Then you can prune them out of existence to make sure you never see them again! Is that something else or is that something else?

Make sure you tell the game No Thanks when you get an activity you don’t like. Then use the database search function to weed out and remove activities that you didn’t enjoy.

Advanced and Multiple Search Options:
The search tab allows you to find activities by combining some of the search functions described above and by using new search criteria, such as whether a fetish or accessory is involved in an activity. To use the Advanced Search controls, set the criteria you want then press the Search button. Press the Reset All button to return the search criteria to default values.

The advanced search functions that can be used (alone or together) are shown below:

  • Query String: a word or phrase (string of letters) that you want to search for. Leave blank to disregard this during searches.
  • Activ Type: the type of activity that you want to search for. Leave at “Any / All” to disregard this during searches.
