Architect Archive

We had someone post over in the merchant forum that lights degrade while on a vendor. I know it was a known bug on TC, remained a known bug on Live. It was one of those "great ideas" that was going to rejuvenate the architect profession. Does anyone know if the devs are still promising to fix it, or is it just one of those little problems that we have to live with, because the devsaren't sure how to fix it?

Don't let the negative AFKophobes get you down. Play the game however you want.

Is the beta testing almost over for this game?

I have never had lights degrade from being in the vendor, myself.

I have! Lights decay while on the vendor just as if they had been placed in a building.

my lights dont, but a problem I came across is a crate of lights.

Whenever I empty a crate, the last light or candle to come out of it is burnt out. That is annoying, since it means ill lose 1 in 10 lights at all times, and selling someone a crate of lights is actually a ripoff unless you price accordingly.

Assuming I get them from the factory to the vendor in a timely manner, I price my crates as a full crate of 10. If they expire on the vendor, I relist them for the price of a crate of 9 because I know the 10th one they pull out will be burned out.

I have honestly not looked at the behavior of individual lights lately.

Individual lights on my vendor do not degrade, unless they are in the stockroom. Crates of lights however, do degrade on my vendor.

I pulled my lights out of a crate and put them straight onto a vendor. After 30 days the ones that fell into the stockroom had 6 days life left on them. I watched this life decrease in the stockroom - but now they are back on the vendor and they don't seem to be decaying anymore (staying at around 5 days life...). The lights went on the vendor before the vendor patch hit and dropped off after the vendor patch...perhaps that has something to do with it ?

I'll be checking the next lot of lights and candles I put on anyway ...

I too am having a problem with crated candals being burntout etc. I once even had a full crate at lifespan 0. I'm not sure what the heck is going on with that but it is a major PITA and something that I think needs to be fixed ASAP.

normally the bug is that the last light in a crate is degrading dwon to even 0when you dont pull it out of the crate before.

other then that they dont degrade on vendors
