I just tested my faux rental and I can access it via sanctum & warp with no issues. I changed the colors with no problem.
I blacklisted a player and I was able to take all of their shop stands and items though. I made a video…might post later. Posted. Video showed the player removed the plot 1st.
There is always people thar complains and get disappointed on updates.
And there is also people who are happy with them not much we can do about it.
Bless you 
you are my new oortgod
One other thing I noticed: blacklisting someone from your planet seems to be 100% permanent. Change of heart/2nd chance not allowed. Even if they’re on your friends’ list. In a way this makes sense, would just like to verify it’s as intended?
But then, what happens when enough rental planets finally go through the color spectrum? By that reasoning, how can you ever allow new colors to keep eroding away at these parts of the game?
Based on the data by @Gorillastomp refined here, even after 195ish Exos there are still many color variations that have yet to be seen. So if the rentals follow a similar path, I would think it would take thousands of rentals or maybe more before every color variation is available. While eventually, in theory, it is possible, I think the way it is now means years will go by before that happens.
It was a rhetorical question, really… My point was that either they have to permanently disallow some colors in order to preserve the sanctity of exos and goo, or they have to allow those things to lose their color-exclusive value over any timeline.
The logic doesn’t work. Or they’re being false about this future plan for colors.
you dont blacklist from your planet, you are just generally blacklisting them, it is the same blacklist that you operate on when blacklisting someone in the chat window, or by interacting with them and blacklisting them, its shared for all characters of your user too.
to remove someone from the blacklist, you either need to:
We’ve never added an explicit “here is your blacklist” before until the World Controller as I felt it was important to be able to figure out “why” someone cant join your world even if you make it public if you didnt realise you had blacklisted them, atleast you can view your blacklist on the world controller.
Ok, thank you for the info.
I tried to friend them afterwards and wasn’t able to, they couldn’t friend me either. That’s why I thought it was permanent. I didn’t see the blacklist filter, I need to look again.
What’s the reasoning for when this inevitably happens? Or is there/will be arbitrary limits to prevent this from ever happening?
It sounded to me like there will be arbitrary limits. I think the palettes for world profiles have already been made and worlds will spawn with an assortment of colors from the palette for the profile we choose.
But I dont think every color is used in the profiles since they want to hold back for gleambow and exos.
So the “inevitability” of all colors some day being open for sovereign worlds is just something the players made up i think.
If I’m understanding this correctly…So if colors from the live universe are only available for possibilities on private planets, does that mean since we have black rock/gravel then it would be possibly to get black gleam on a private planet?
The colors for a specific block/surface resource can be chosen from previously available colors - but only within the specific range of that block/resource. So, black meta rock but no black gleam.
Unless I’ve totally read it wrong.
Since black exists in the current live universe as gravel and rock I believe, would that give a rental planet the possibility of getting black gleam?
So what you’re saying is Black gleam is tied to Gleambow racing
It seems like they alluded to this but they definitely haven’t made a definitive statement on whether some colors will never come up or just take forever to come up - and Luca’s argument seems to pour more cold water on the possibility.
Can’t say I’m too excited about that.
@Ratchel
This is what I think it means too - I could be wrong though.
ie: if we’ve seen fuchsia foliage on perm planets, we can select that for our rental.
If we’ve seen cobalt rocks on perm planets, we can select that for our rental.
It was said that there is a chance (unknown %) of a color appearing on a rental that we haven’t seen before.
I believe also saw above that certain colors are tied to certain categories, such as gleambow and exos and live. So using black gleam as an example it has only been seen during gleambow events so it’s obviously tied to that category, it could possibly be also tied to live spawn category and we just haven’t seen it yet since new live planets only spawn when it’s needed for I think game population. With that in mind we could have a small % possiblity of spawning a black gleam rental.
But is it per type of rock/foliage. Ie since black rock is present we can put it as any type of rock or is it tied to the type of rock(think meta)
So, quoting out from another thread:
This implies to me that no colors are hard blocked from being selected by the RNG over all.
However:
So some colors are very unlikely to ever be selected, especially in the lower tiers.
Some good news:
So if there’s no artificial limit (blacklisting), and gleam can select any initial hue, @James has implied that a black gleam planet is possible. Maybe not even weighted against.
It took 500 worlds in rapid fire to see over 200 colors. It’s not clear to me whether this variation is per block type or not.
For those who want to roll for colors:
If you can lock the color in a gem profile, it should be selectable for planets of any profile/tier afterwards, right?
So we have the implication that every color of gleam is possible, and a tip on how to most efficiently roll the RNG for new colors.
