Dyeing Clothes

    I think that it would be great for PL to have the option of dyeing our clothing. Perhaps it could be for all those who achieve LSD. Just a thought.

    It’s a bad idea but I think it’s way harder to implement than people think it is.

    Also not sure what having LSD has to do with dyeing clothes is.

    I love robust systems for managing clothing colours, but implementing it into a game that already includes recolours of clothing sold as seperate pieces makes things tough.

    BUT, not impossible! A way to get around that is to make sure the colours are applied differently per skins. Eg. The Scurvy Bilge Rat set is a recolour of normal Bilge Rat, but let's say the Scurvy Bilge Rat set, when its colours are changed, the black parts of the clothing don't change colour and remain dark, while the regular Bilge Rat set that doesn't have said black sections would change the whole pieces.

    Of course, that would still require a lot of thought per piece, and probably require a lot of work in general. It really depends on an effort - reward assessment, is having full colour tweaking really worth the developer effort?

    Given how Rare treats recolours, usually making a big deal out of them like the Triumphant Sea Dog Set, I think the answer is a pretty clear no.

    They already implemented different colors for underwear so this shouldn't be as hard as it seems.

    You should have to buy dye kits and dyeable clothes from the emporium. Dyeable clothes of various designs you buy once. Dye kits have to be purchased each time.
