The rare but dreaded Gen 1 standard throwback glitch bites even the most experienced growers. You know the story. You're harvesting a 48th generation Hendrix Haze you've worked a cool FX into. You click the Harvest button, and... you get a Gen 1 Northern Lights. Bummer. And danged if we can fix it within the limits SL gives us!
So... IT'S NOT A BUG, IT'S A FEATURE!
With Version 4.19.907, if you're afflicted by the Gen 1 throwback, you'll get one of four new EPIC varieties: Alaskan TF, Chocolate Thai, Cindy 99 & G13! And that's the only way those EPIC strains can be obtained! EPIC seeds will not be sold! No, it's not going to be a Gen 49 Hendrix with purple fog, but it won't be another darn Northern Lights! It will be something rare!
We've also changed the logic for inheritance of the lighting trait. For seven years, it's been impossible to breed an indoor/outdoor line "up" to full outdoor lighting. It's now possible! Obsessive-compulsive breeders can now restore "heirloom" LE strains that have been hopelessly contaminated with the indoor lighting gene! (Stats now include numeric values for lighting, too.)
Finally, for those who like to decor prize plants after harvesting, Version 4.19.907 will save you some script memory. Decor plants now retain scripts only if they are needed to support sound FX. Plants that don't "sing" don't keep their scripts. It's not much, but if you're a decor collector it adds up!
Version 4.19.907 also includes a lot of other small optimizations & code clean-ups. If you're a glutton for boredom, just ask Djeaux about them!
And oh yes, we've made some minor tweaks to make the menu layouts in HUD 4.2019 a little more organized!
VERSION 4.19.907 RECAP
- Introduces 4 "epic" standard varieties produced only by the Gen 1 throwback glitch
- Changes logic in lighting inheritance & provides numeric values in stats.
- Retains CSL Lib script in decor plants only if needed for FX with sounds.
Remember, your new HUD will be automagically delivered to you when it's available. Just wear your current HUD (or log in while wearing it).
We're not "publishing" pictures of the new EPIC varieties until they're discovered. The "chronological order" will reflect when the plants first appear in the wild.
