That part has been completely overhauled in 0841. You can now select which tavern job an NPC should be assigned to, with detailed infomation about gains and effects in a new tooltip row.
I "forgot" we had Christmas and New Years when writing that post so things got delayed by a week or so :) . 0839 public goes live today on Discord and F95, however. I have to wait a full month before posting it here due to promotion cycles (Jan 5th).
If you could send me your save, preferably on Discord, I'll take a look and fix whatever bug you might be facing. It would also be interesting to dissect such an old save and see how well it has fared these past years.
There was a minor change that removed Allowance as a way to keep Affection dropping (to Amiable) but that has been reinstated in 0838 with a script that also checks for the Materialistic trait.
All drops don't pass below Amiable, however, so if they're Despising you, something else is going on.
Just wait for Control to go up - you can also kill off all the raiders to speed up that process. He'll open again once the streets are safe (or less unsafe).
You've probably not extracted the game properly. Pull the Masters of Raana folder out from the zip archive and start the game from the extracted folder.
Unfortunately, HTML games need access to cookies and local storage in order to work. I have to say, though, that I've never had a player with this problem before. You must have quite the protection app!
Contact me on Discord or through the venue you're subscribed (Patreon or Subscribestar) and we'll be able to solve this more easily. :) I need to see a screenshot of what you're getting in order to understand what went wrong.
