Hybrids, take two.

More discussion has prompted that we're going to allow a better compromise for how edits on hybrids are handled now. We're hoping this ends up sounding fairer in the end.




We are going to let you have edits 50% of the time when you breed using a Breeding Coin, which is similar to now. However, to push our agenda of non-edited hybrids, any breeding where the two parents are non-edited will have a slightly higher chance of getting an extra offspring. We are also putting the limit at edits on hybrid offspring at 25%. Keep this in mind when you breed hybrids from now on.




Again, that means that we will randomize the chance like a basic coin flip to see if you get edits on your hybrid offspring. If the parents have edits, you go by our standard determinate in the amount of offspring you get. But the percentages change slightly higher if the parents do not have edits to get more than one baby.




Any other questions/clarification needed can be addressed in comments.

Thank you for the less harsh rules!
I am saving now for my first BC, and I almost cried when I saw I would probably only get 1 baby with no edits. I'm very happy with the comprimise!

I approve of this. c: Much better way to encourage edit'less breedings than just making everyone look at a BC and go "gnah, waste of money, sell it and get multiple LBCs instead 8/!"



Also makes sense, as one babby with attractive line edits seems to sell for about as much as two babbies with nicer colors but no edits; or perhaps the two edit'less ones selling for a bit more if they come out particularly appealing.



Thank you muchly, now I'd be tempted to actually use a breeding coin if I could get one, even if I still would never buy one. :3

Honestly, I never understood people's fascination with lineart edits, but this seems fair enough to me. -Lunar
