it is. looking for a CM on my server now to test it, i think it's like ruby bliel in that the strength is set, all we can change is duration, filling and quantity, but i want to be sure that it works before i start up a factory.
Nice. I'm stuck here at work for a while longer, so if anyone can post stats of what they make I'd be really interested to hear...
Using a Medium Flavor Additive: experimenting on duration.
FIlling:16f
Duration 1:35
THere was never any clarification by the devs during testing if the +0 movement modifier was a mistake or not. Seeing how we cannot experiment on a nutrition line I don't see how we can increase it.
The 3% movement buff supposedly still works though. This was from testing by Red Dwarf on TC.
Well we need some clarification on this. First of all the modifier reads +0 and this cant be changed. This makes no sense. Who wants to buy a drink that modifies your speed by zero?
So is it just displaying wrong with the plus zero? Is there supposed to be some fixed number in there that wearen't supposed tochange?
Or is the the whole nutrition line supposed to be experimented on and increased?
Well, with the new "last buff/debuff is the one that sticks" rule, a +0 "buff" would overwrite a movement debuff (putting you back to normal movement) which I believe was the main function of the drink. Plus, I seem to recall hearing that if you drink it, you also get a bonus to resisting a movement debuff.

Anyone got ideas on pricing this stuff?
Between the milk for the enhancers and the hide which with the new AI changes is going to be a pain to get I'm thinking 200k+ a crate for mine.
Shame the duration isn't a bit longer but the fill is nice can get two in ya during a fight no problem even with Ruby, vayerbok, thundercloud if you are ranged. Trick is to take the ruby first since it last 20 min or till you use your two stims.
maybe we can get back into the game after all. I really hope we get some love soon. Stocking my vendor every two weeks instead of twice a week is depressing. (although I have gotten to play a bit more with my riffleman)
Expensive.The resource requirements are hard to come by. First if you are making enhancers it will require difficult resources to get (milk or domesticated meat) plus 45 Rancor hide per unitis not easy to come by. It will depend on your server, but Im planning between 200-275k if not more. We will have to see what the supply and demand look like.

And you know all the Jedi (of which I am one) will blame us for price gouging a drink that they'll need to keep up with all the MBH/MCM's... I say don't hate the player, hate the game =)
Maybe if they didnt spend all their millions of credits on crystals that tune to crap they could afford quality food.
Joking aside, it may be practical to make a low end (non-be) more affordableversion of this.
