Given white costs 10, this would make it hard to replace white stuff. Is that intentional?

Huh, no, I hadn’t realised that White was so expensive. Have added a rider to make White cheap, since we have a whole grid full of it.

white is costed at 10 for a reason. don’t want to make it easy to clear stuff. also that actually makes it cheaper to do the work around. If you have

RR_
RGR
_R_

you can clear the top R for 1 guilder and a turn, then make it R again for a turn.

what if we made is so that you have to pay both the cost of the pigment you are adding and the cost of the pigment you are replacing?

alternatively, we just raise the min cost of pigments so that it remains an expensive thing to do.

This rule is changing the replacement mechanic to only replace “a color that has a lower Pigment cost”, so if White costs 1 it can’t replace anything.

ah good point. I think its probably fine then? Though I am considering the idea that it might be more interesting if we just make is so that guilders work with materials instead of pigments. But then I guess we’d have the same problem if we want to include materials in motifs.

I like this and this resolves my concerns with Colouring In.
