Sadly, it's not. With Publish 18, they "fixed" it so candles and lamps actually go out when their lifespan ends. Those beautiful designs are going to have to be redone every 15-30 days.

Hope they are going to expend the Life span of light and candles.

Or creat some "recharge" for those, so we do not have to re decorate our houses every 30 days!

Well if they dont "fix" it then I am not likely to ever put lights in my house again

and there you see the result of this fix. without wax refillers / spare bulbs, lights just got useless except for maybe torches for simple stuff & street lights

Did anyone else have their candles/lights delete themselves from the house when they burned out, too?

Mine did.

We should be seeing a change with this soon. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Odd, I clearly remember posting about this in the TC bug thread and in the Tuesday Tip telling people to get ready for this as it was actually a fix for a very old bug.

So there is a "fix" coming? Good insight.

I thought the concensus on this way back when was that we wanted renewable power cells/lightbulbs/candle wicks whatever that would allow the architects to make a steady stream of revenue but would NOT subject homeowners from redecorating every 3 weeks? What happened to that idea?

Good question.

Because now I'm looking at placing all the little candles in all the places I had them, and it killed the atmosphere in some of my places.

My sympathy goes out to everyone who some incredible chandaliers. It just isn't right. So much time...

I agree, architects should be able to create batteries or replacement bulbs for their lights, I think the lifespan idea is good, and allows architects to get more income, but needs some changes for the consumer.

As far as candles go, I think they should delete themselves once burned out and there shouldn't be a way to re light them, that wouldn't make much sense.
