A possible way to fix the black glass dilemma

Start spawning farmable black glass on exos :blush:

That way black gleam can still be exclusive

In general it’d be cool if most / all exos had glass formations in various colors. Maybe they could spawn underground next to lava. Give people a new exo thing to farm.

The game actually getting popular would fix the issues with rarity, but we will have to settle for sov planets and a paywall.

The only way to fix the black glass dilemma isn’t making it farmable on exos, but fixing the recipe of colored glass so it makes sense instead of this light-emitting light block choosing colors of a non-light emitting translucent block recipe we currently have…

I think a good fix would be “remelting” dark glass with glass to get black glass.
Maybe even the possible to lighten the color tint up by repeating the process.

Because as of now dark glass only use is for the farms.
Would like to see an other use for it.

The only fix you are likely to see this decade would to be stop caring about getting black glass.

Takes a year just to fix repairs on coils and we are at almost two years without seeing titans. That’s the problem with making a game thats just here to show off an engine. As long as its pretty its fine, seems to be the dev mindset I’m afraid.

Rant over lol

For some people (like myself) the problem is not how it is obtained. The problem is that the best looking of a basic resource (like a freaking window) is exclusive. Don’t… ever… make… basic… things… exclusive…

that is a good idea.
but I’d prefer adding new glass types:
glass panes made of regular glass with the same transparency (for obvious reasons would have to have border)
and used in recipe for making windows with wooden frame (pane + timber + nail) using timber color, sprayable.

SO MUCH THISSSSS

I honestly prefer the clear glass, I just can’t stand the border on them currently. If I could paint the borders to match my whatevers, I’d be pretty freakin’ happy.
