Mobile Gelatinous Pillion cannot properly take on Dyes

[Tru3thful]

Your Terraria Device

Razer Phone

Mobile OS

According to system settings, Android 9, or Android "Pie"

The Gelatinous Pillion, or the Winged Slime mount is currently not fully affected by dyes on mobile; when using a dye, the wings and saddle take on the dye, but the slime itself remains unaffected. The mount otherwise functions as intended. See screenshots for more details; specifically, a dye being applied to the mount, but not all of it being dyed.

this may be a graphics thing, check your in-game settings

 

[Tru3thful]

Just checked my graphics settings, the only thing I have changed as far as I'm aware is the UI quality set to low. If there's something wrong with them in the screenshots, well, then I guess you could sue me for lying.

 

[Sinon878]

the UI Quality may be interfering with the dyes, although the UI is basically the inventory and user interface. try setting it to high

 

[Tru3thful]

UI quality doesn't appear to have an impact on the issue, since as you suggested, it's just the UI being affected.

 

[Sinon878]

try checking the dye now while the UI is set to high

 

[Tru3thful]

That was the screenshot with the Interface Quality set to high. Apologies for not posting a screenshot without the settings menu partially obscuring it beforehand.

i can see a difference in the shade of the mount's body, it may just be that some dyes dont have a noticeable effect on the body of the mount, its a bit similar to the terraprisma with regular blue dye

 

[Tru3thful]

I know that it can fully affect the slime, as on PC dyes fully affects the slime's body and not just the saddle/wing. I don't have any screenshots of it on hand since I don't have PC access currently, so instead skip to 1:53 in this video to see some short footage of the dyes on the mount working as intended.

cant access YouTube, and the pc version is different to mobile, it may have the same content, but it doesnt use the exact same codes to prevent bugs

Screenshot from the video showing the dyed slime in place of the video:

i can see a difference in the shade of the mount's body

That could be due to the small color animation the mount has?

it may have the same content, but it doesnt use the exact same codes to prevent bugs

...then I suppose this helps to prove that this is a mobile - specific bug?

not that, it had a slight red-ish sort of shade

...then I suppose this helps to prove that this is a mobile - specific bug?

this means it is just a cosmetic bug only on mobile, although i havent seen the bug before, plus it works fine on mine

Hence why I labeled it as such. I didn't notice a color change at all, and it seems to be a lot less visible than intended if it's there.

I don't know what caused it, so I thought I should report it as a bug, since it doesn't seem normal. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[Sinon878]

LOL, you copied my signature ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[Tru3thful]

Oh, that was there? I didn't even notice, I just nabbed it off a Google search.

Oof have the same issue here so idk what caused something to not have the whole thing to be dyed as the wings and saddle itself so hope this get patch in a hotfix.

Also I hate when PC Games get things that don’t work on Mobile Devices due to Coding being different so hopefully this will get fixed because this is a bug so hope this get patch in a next hotfix patch.
