They also decay on you, and in your factory.

Lovely, just lovely. I suggest we raise hell over this and pray that it was an honest mistake.

The candles in a crate won't decay except for the last one pulled out. As reported on TC






We know that, but what about the guy buying them ? If I look at a crate of candles on somebody's vendor and see them at 10pct I am NOT going to buy them.

I a way I'm relieved to hear this.


I was checking my vendor after stocking it with candles and thought: Is that lamp's timer already ticking down?


Thought I was going mad there! /sigh... Not surprised. The "developers" just can't get anything right. Do they even care anymore?

40 days in game time is a little over a year.



No idea what you are thinking.....40 days of game time = 40 days of rl time...

********PLEASE HOT FIX THIS!!**********

I made a few crates of lighting in a factory today and noticed that they degrade while in the factory. They also degrade in the bank.


Players need a place to store them without them losing value and we need a way to make them without them losing value. Now, when i make a crate its already down 10-20 min when i pull it even when i stand next to it and pull full crates as they finish. If i left them overnight that would be HOURS off their lifespan.


They only seem to hold their time on vendors and in the inventory.


Posting this on the Architect boards as well


I havent noticed a decay on the vendor (single or crate) and i havent noticed a degrade on in my inventory, but i have watched the time drop in my bank and factory

Fix this.. I'm tired of standing at Tharien's factory!!! (one of us has to be at work )


Again.. we tested and found... Decay in factory hopper while crates are being made... Decay in bank.. no decay in inventory.. and no decay while on vendors, be it singles or crates.


HELP me make clothes again!!! *grumble*hotfix *grumble*

I say we all stop making these until the devs fix this. If any of your customers ask why you aren't making them, tell them and send them a link to the this thread. If we get enough people clammoring about this, then the devs may listen and make the needed changes.

No, Riis is correct. Use CTRL-ALT-G to see the in-game clock. Also note that the sun rises and sets in-game many timesthrought one real-life day. Game-time is much faster than real-time.

Leave it burning for a month and I'll bet you have to change the bulbs, at least...






I mean, just 10 uses ago, I had myPlymouth color customized, and I have an appointment to get it recolored in 10 more uses...



When's the last time you disassembled it and shipped it to another city... or planet? Bet that's hell on your paint job. Nah, you called yours once and it's still sitting out there, causing lagf for pedestrians
