Title: Question about new Ship-Based in-game purchases
Post by: Captain McFaceSmashy on May 01, 2014, 04:08:01 pm
Just want to preface that I LOVE the new ship customization, just what the game needed to add that personal touch(though I was maybe hoping for a "spiky tidbits" theme too, you know, like warhammer 40k Orkz or such (pretty please?:P)).
It seems at least some of the ships recieved a visual pass as well? I never noticed the giant tubes on one side of the galleon before, at any rate. <3

Anyway here's the thing: Since some of the "Theme's" seem to have alot more impact on some ships than others, and I fly a wide variety of ship (pretty much all of them) I was wanting to basically buy all of the Themes. But I paused for a moment thinking: Wait, what if I have to buy each Theme seperately for each ship? That would get pretty expensive, and I wouldn't want some ships with and others without a theme cause I can't afford it, that would feel kinda crappy.

So are theme's "Unlimited use" after you purchase them? Or are they consumed like dyes?

On a similar note what about the Figureheads? And the Dyes and Decals? I'm guessing the dyes/decals are consumed on use, but does a single application cover all ships or would i have to buy 7 dyes & decals just to get all my balloons the same colour and symbol?

Hoping to hear from someone in the know (Dev or otherwise)

Dyes are consumables, all other items are unlockables.

So you can buy a costume, theme, figure head, etc and use it however you want, on every ship, with every class (that the costume relates to), etc.

If you buy a dye, you can only use it once. Ship dyes may be used to dye a single ship a single time. Character dyes may be used to dye a single outfit a single time.

What about decals? Are they unlockables, or do they count as dyes too?
