Hello everyone,
it's friday the 13th. The right day to bring some bad (or good) luck to all courtroom users.
A new version has just been uploaded. It fixes a few minor bugs and adds a medical advice. Thanks to Babydoc for this. Two new features are added as well.
ProbationThanks go to quitelyDevious for inspiring this feature. At the end of the trial the judge will sometimes put you on probation. If you don't use the script until this time is over, nothing will happen.
Show spoiler
The chance the judge will order probation is 2/7. Initial probation ranges from 4-14 days.
But if you submit to court before, it's very likely the judge will pass a sentence on the severe end of the scale. It will be even worse if you confess the same crime you came to court the time before.
If you signed in to the repeated offender program via settings, the punishments pleading repeated/serial offense will scale accordingly.
Off course the probation will be restarted if you commit a crime while on probation and it will usually be longer than before.
For details see the spoiler.

When you submit to court, while on probation the chances for mild to severe punishments are
mild 1/6
regular 1/3
severe 1/2
If you break probation and confess the same crime as before chances are
mild -impossible-
regular 1/6
severe 2/3
a little above severe 1/6
If you plea repeated or serial offender or if you go above the case-limit in the repeated-offender program the punishment-severity will scale based on the values given above and the factors of the program.
The probation will start new at the moment of the trial. The initial duration will be extended by 2-10 days but there's a chance of 1/10 it will not be extended at all.
The duration will never be extended above 36 days.
Marking RequirementSometimes the court will decide to have the evidence i.e. your body marked. When you report for punishment, the guard will check if a marking-requirement is on file. If so, she will tell you a number that has to written to your body.
Show spoiler
Probability 2/7, the number always has two digits.
That number needs to be visible in the submitted evidence. Please read the guards instuctions in detail as some punishments need the marking to be visible in every evidence while others only require it in a part of them.
The jury will ignore evidence that isn't marked although required to.
The marking serves two purposes. Officially it is a protection against possible fraud by recycling old evidence. Unofficially it serves to add a little extra humiliation.
Anyway, it's good to have something ready to write on your body when reporting for punishment. Be it a marker pen, a lipstick or whatever else you want to use for this.
To all members of the jury. Please download the new version of the script. Earlier Versions will not show which cases have a marking-requirement imposed.Again thanks everyone who helped by contributing to the script. If anyone has ideas to make it better, smoother or more nasty, please tell. But beware, they may be considered for implementation.
have fun or whatever
