[SUGGESTION] Allow up to 2 Different Flames of Fate colours to be saved in the ship lanterns

I think it's better to create customization for lanterns and some have prefixed colors

Aye, that can also be a good option.

But regardless, I still think that letting players save 2 lantern colours on their ship won't be advantageous - you still need 6 different colours to be able to activate the Fort of the Damned, and the Skull of Destiny now exists for the sole purpose of making FoTD activation a breeze so there is not much point in collecting the flames manually unless you are extremely broke.

Everyone would just save pink/white since those are the only difficult ones to get lol

Some would, yes. But I think that will simply lie on the fact that they would be rarer to get and they would just flaunt it rather than using them solely to make turning on FoTD easier.

Personally though, it would be more likely that they would pick flames that complement with their ship's color pallete and aesthetics.

I don't really see the need to be able to save 2 colors per lantern, since if it's saving at all you have more than enough lanterns to be able to save every color if you wanted to. The real question is should the lights save at all.

I think you misunderstood - its not that you can save 2 different colors in a single lantern, but that in a single ship up to two different lantern colors can be active (not including the default flame).

For example: You can turn your ships' lantern to have solely red colors, a mix of Blue and Purple, and so on.

As the Skull of Destiny is now a thing, it doesn't really give much of an advantage to have 2 colors pre-saved

Only those of PL can acquire it tho…

You can already do that. You can have all the colors if you want. I don't understand what this suggestion is accomplishing.

You can save the colored flames towards future sessions, just like rowboats.

But it is only limited to 2 saved flames so it doesn't make Skull of Destiny redundant.

Oh, that is true. Truth be told it was quite easy to stumble upon it during Open Crew that I forgot it is PL-locked.

Regardless, I think limiting the amount of types of colors on the ship to just be two across sessions would be a good compromise, considering the most people would use to make setting up FoTD easier destiny-less would be to save pink/white colors.

Maybe also make it similar to rowboats where if your ship got sunk, the flame colors got reset to still make re-obtaining the flames have more meaning.
