Sylvan/Dark Sylvan wings question

[razor777]

What determines what color the wings are when you get them? Because when I save edit them in their white, but when I get them naturally in game Dark Sylvan is red and Sylvan is blue.

The color is supposed to be hard-coded for Sylvan and Dark Sylvan.

Does the white color save have the "Wing Style" status effect?

It depends on the type of wing:

• If there's a Wing Style status effect, it uses it's tooltip if one is provided; if no tooltip is present, it takes its first value and uses that as the texture for the following steps.
• If the wings' texture is Furred (no naturally-occurring types, outside Wing Style) or Feathered (Avian, Dove), it uses your fur colour; if their texture is Scaled (Demonic, Small Demonic, Frostwyrm, Shark, Gryvain, Draconic, Small Draconic) or Chitinous (Mothrine), it uses your scale colour.
• Otherwise, the colour is hard-coded for certain types: iridescent for Dragonfly, transparent for Bee, Small Bee or Myr, blue for Sylvan, and glittering black for Dark Sylvan.

Bat can be Furred. Mothrine can be Furred, too, depending on your path (Verdant/Vatic). According to the Wiki, at least.

Huh, now that you mention it It does actually.

Know nothing about the code of the game, but maybe Wing Style just affects them because, by messing with it, the game makes it take priority over your actual wing description?

Mothrine's probably due to Wing Style, and Bat was added after the code I'm using as reference. Both make sense as Furred to me.

It does for certain things like colour, as I stated above.

Huh, now that you mention it It does actually.

So, there's two possibilities:

• The Wing Style status effect has "white" as its tooltip, or
• It has no tooltip, and whatever its first value is causes the function determining wing colour to look at either your fur colour or your scale colour, and whichever of the two it looks at is white.

EDIT: saw your post in a different thread, and it's the first one.
