Making this post at the request of Sierra Lee - I'll just quote: While working on 0.35.0, I realized that I'm not actually sure how much a certain number can be optimized. Specifically, the total number of harem members that can be maxed at this stage. Maxed counting by switches, not 100 points. I don't have a save that aims for this exactly, but it's relevant - I would like to know the highest number of maxed characters that can be legitimately obtained In other words, how many harem members can be legitimately locked in the same run? Naively it would be 16 - of the 20 harem members, Carina, Lynine, and Orilise are capped at 99, and maxing Riala requires cheating (I assume) to fund the big excavation - but it seems likely that tradeoffs and limited resources would reduce that number.

We may as well also make this thread a census of how many everyone actually has ( don't respond to this question if you cheated in any way ). Me, I've got 10 after the latest round of investments, though adjustments to my recent research and funding choices could give me 13.

Fulminato's tool may help us here.
