Sunshine! | Flight Rising Discussion

Thanks for joining us for the fun tonight! I think we've kept the lid on this for long enough... Our engineering team has been working on new tools to help us generate and implement genes in a much faster and more efficient manner that does not sacrifice the image and color quality we've come to value as part of our site's style. These tools are being developed to make future gene implementation much easier, but also come with the added benefit of allowing us to expand our color wheel without also increasing artist workload exponentially. We are currently working on converting our existing breed art templates into ones that will be compatible with our new tools. Every time we finish 10, we will be revealing a color. Some will be old, some will be new. To answer your questions: [LIST] [*]We are intending to only expand the color wheel once, as we would like to minimize the disruption to player's breeding ranges. [*]New colors will go between existing colors on the wheel so that they are in places that make sense for their range. We will not reshuffle the wheel, and your ranges will remain close to the same, but expanded. [LIST] [*]Example: If you had a Rose to Magenta range, you're not suddenly going to have a green in there. It will be more pinks. [/LIST] [*]New colors will ONLY be able to be bred, hatched, and scattered for. [LIST][*]To remain fair to all of our players, only the original 67 colors will be available during account registration and new dragon creation.

New colors will go between existing colors on the wheel so that they are in places that make sense for their range. We will not reshuffle the wheel, and your ranges will remain close to the same, but expanded.
- Example: If you had a Rose to Magenta range, you're not suddenly going to have a green in there. It will be more pinks.
New colors will ONLY be able to be bred, hatched, and scattered for.
- To remain fair to all of our players, only the original 67 colors will be available during account registration and new dragon creation.
