Pink writing of doom!

[FRANK_THE_TANK]

I got the pink writing yesterday, the doctor says there is nothing anyone can do about it, I just have to live with it... forever.

So I turned my brain on for a min to check if it still booted and to see if it had an idea, and it did. Hurray.

Allow people to select the ITEM. as in singular, is in one only (at a time at least) that they want to be able to produce in strat.

Once it is selected every x5 tick moves a counter, 30x5 gives you +1 then 60 for +2 90 for +3 120 for +4.
An alternative could be 1 x5 tick is = to 0.005% and you can just progress it along yon bar.

That means that it is completely independent of the gear you are carrying.

Also for every x5 on a different item you could loose 0.003% or with the other system you just go for a straight x5 for x5.

Anyway, just an idea.

Now going to permanently carry 3 construction materials until further notice, woo.

EDIT
----------------------------------

You could also tier the difficulty and make it harder to produce plated tanks and what not.

Hey, this makes sense. +1

[FRANK_THE_TANK]

Why thank you.

Even I thought so, I was very surprised.

[Earthdforce]

So the rich get richer, the strong get stronger? I don't like it.

[FRANK_THE_TANK]

How so MrEarthdforce?

[Earthdforce]

If it only works on x5's, then not everyone will craft, at least not as quickly.

[FRANK_THE_TANK]

That was the idea really. Limit it and slow it down. Most importantly select what you want to produce.

+ Everyone gets x5 you can be a ham fisted potato farmer but at some point your team will win 4 times in a row. It could be 4s or 5s what evs.

Really the point is I think it would be an improvment if you could 1) select the item you want to improve 2) its improvement is related to playing cRPG not strat and is contingent on something like the x factor (lols) and not random arbitrary pink writing. 3) Alts should effect it. You select the gear with the main and x4 or 5 on the alt also boosts it.

[I feel like there should be a 3 and will edit this accordingly when I don't have a hang over.]

I like this, because out of just about my entire faction I have the most crafting points in my main equipment simply due to luck and the fact that I never change my outfit/build. 'Tis nonsense, because I certainly do not play the most.

[Gomer]

I like this! Whatever the current system is I hate it. I haven't got the message for crafting in well over a month.... I am very active as well so IDK how it currently works

[Kafein]

I played a lot, got the message only 4-5 times and always when I was wearing peasant stuff. The best crafting skill I have is for... daggers. I simply hate the current system and would love something that would make it less random.

[Vibe]

Good idea, I hate not being able to wear different gear out of fear of reducing my main gear crafting skill.

[Jacko]

Wearing different gear..? Wha..

You know the same happened to me. I always used to wear good stuff like Haubergeon but the one time I got the message I didn't let my gear getting repaired for like 2 days and immediately got that message. The other time I was peasant also just for 2 days maybe and got that message. Well that's my history of getting the message.

[FRANK_THE_TANK]

lol, I got that message 5 times in 2 days while playing from level 30 to 31

FAVORITISM DAMN YOU chadz!
