i just want it the way it was as i remember it

never heard anyone cry nerf armor coloring, because it was just a bonus for us, it did absolutly nothing but give the players more joy.

as an architect I wish i could have colored furniture to debate like this.
Color Furniture will be a configurable option decided by server admins.
No I am kiddin But armor color kits to me sounds like a very good option.

I have to say that I like the idea of armor color kits too, an option that would be fairly cheap to produce but still required an Armorsmith.

At any rate though, glad to hear that harvesters are coming along so nicely and I cant wait for housing!

Thanks for answering so many of my questions, devs! I'll try to think of some more to ask you next time (assuming you've survived the SC launch )

I read Deda's question. WOW... Really Kyle? That's the stupidest thing I've heard.


If we're doing a vanilla release we should include all the questionable "bugs". This including the radial menu composite color change.

I think that you think it will help armor smiths.... It won't. The armor smith's will have to a lot more hasel with the colors and if the colors aren't 100% right the players won't buy it. Thus making their business harder

We are the developers. We cannot and will not decided what your server uses in terms of 14.1 features. What we WILL do is provide options. Armor recolouring via radial menu will be configurable, just like removing AAs and CAs via radial or the use of mini suits.

Can we please stop worrying. It is a non issue. Yes your server of choice will be able to do it, no that may not reflect exactly what is on our Test Centre.

I don't get what everyone's arguing about. It was a feature added temporarily to compensate for a bug. A bug that this version never had. Hence, the feature doesn't need to be added. The developers outright stated that it was a temporary feature to compensate for something stupid they did. It doesn't matter if it's a feature you like, I don't see why we should be including bug fixes for bugs we don't have.

Well I like most people here are going to play suncrusher. The details have not been released so it's a little tense on the staff's view point of things like this.


Also right now on Nova we're striving for patch 14.1 and nothing else. Shouldn't that mean putting this "bug" back in? It's been on the test center before so i wouldn't think it'd be THAT hard of a fix. If I'm wrong correct me I'm no coder.

exactly. It would be like a publish 15 CU emulator with respecs, which were only available to compensate for the conversion from precu to CU.

That's exactly what needs to happen. It's hyprocritical to say you're striving for a complete clone, vanilla copy of pre-cu and state that mini-suits and composite armor color change via radial menu were a bug that's being worked on.

I will repeat for clarity's sake: Those features WILL be available. They WILL work, and they will be available for anyone to turn on.

Are they a priority for testing right now? Not really.

Are they going to be used on SunCrusher? Undecided, and we probably won't decide without consultation of the SC community when the time comes.
