did they change the decay?

If Im not wrong Marco said sometime that changing stats (decay etc) at itemz wuld ruine the buisness for MA?
Well right now I feel that my color bleacher doesnt at all last as long as before VU compared to the coloring tool. Anyone notice the same thing? Did they make it even worse skillin coloring? and if they can change decay of this then how long before they change economy of everything els?

a way around

theres a way around it, do a search:wtg:

hello

bleacher decays now when u color. u have to buy 2 colorers one with bleacher and one whitout

damn thats why the bleacher was worn out so fast then

A small hint would be reading the VU notes :slight_smile:

I have found no one word about changing coloring in the VU list

Armor & Clothing
Entropia’s famous orange arrivals clothing can now be sold or moved to storage. Only one set is ever issued to new arrivals and cannot be replaced. Undergarments received on arrival can no longer be removed from avatars, and are automatically put on when no other garment is present.

[SIZE=“5”]The coloring process will now deteriorate clothing. In order to compensate this change, deterioration caused by the bleaching process has been halved.[/SIZE]

Condition Limits have been introduced for clothes and armors.

MA are as per usual not giving out all the info but atleast some of it
/Oz…being helpful :wise:

“The colouring process will now deteriorate CLOTHING”.
It says NOTHING about the bleacher also decaying on colouring.

Also it says that the decay process on bleaching would be halved to compensate for this.

That certainly hasn’t happened to my bleacher.
I stopped all colouring after testing this on 100 cans and I realised that I was paying full decay on bleaching AND on colouring.

MA changed the colouring bleacher decay bug some vus ago. Am disapointed that it is back but bugs happen. Support case has been filed just waiting for action now. Hopefully it will not be too long.

The only change to colouring process that is beneficial is the ability to move the colouring tool window out from underneath an expanded chat box. All other changes are adding to the frustration of the whole process.

bleaching has ALWAYS decayed clothing

but main problem is that the whole colouring profession is totally nerfed, what is sarha leaves eu then we have paints that NOONE can use, EDIT well we would have paints if they didnt stop dropping lol

It would seem that MA suffer from an old problem.

The one that occurs when one person modifies code written by another person.
If the code is not documented 100% accurately (or at all :rolleyes:), the changes made to it may well achieve the desired result, but with the cost of introducing unexpected changes at the same time.

They changed the decay rate on the bleacher as desired.

The changed the decay to occur even when the bleacher was not bleaching, which one assumes was not desired.

From (now out of date) experience writing programs, it’s was (for me) easier (In the long run) to write a new bit of code to do what I wanted, than try and change someone else’s code so it behaves differently.

It took just as long to remove the unexpected side effects as it would have done to do it over.

If the code is well written though, adding decay, and changeing it, should just be a 5 min change of some values in the database…
possibly 1 line of code too.

If they changed our weapon amps they can surely change everything else. (This is in response to part of the original question.)

I miss my opalo and 104 combo.

I have bleached over 70,000 times, Kygon. I, and all other colourers, are fully aware that bleaching has ALWAYS decayed clothing. No-one has made any objections or found fault with that.

The issue is the decay on the BLEACHER now occurs when COLOURING and not just when bleaching.

This was a bug fixed many VUs ago and has surprised people that it is back, especially when MA announced that the bleaching decay was to be halved.
