viblym Posted December 20, 2025 Share Posted December 20, 2025 The new skins for the Bee Box and Drying Rack do not specify that they are only applicable for Pearls' Bee Box and Drying rack, I think this needs to be specified under the skin as they cannot actually be used on the player constructed items, only Pearl's 34 2 2 3 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/169197-misleading-skin-descriptions/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

RubLog6 Posted December 20, 2025 Share Posted December 20, 2025 At the very least I was hoping for a new bee box skin because I assumed the drying racks were for Pearl's only (I was actually hoping deep down that I was wrong and I could use the same skins for my own racks... I skipped over the last few bundles to spend on this one...). The only way I feel I'd make her skins worth it is evicting Pearl and bringing her over, which means we have to beat the lunar mutated bosses first 😑 1 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/169197-misleading-skin-descriptions/#findComment-1846365 Share on other sites More sharing options...

R3N_R3N Posted December 20, 2025 Share Posted December 20, 2025 Yeah, really disappointed its only for pearl's stuff.

Torpeda Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 It's the same with crockpot skins. It's nowhere mentioned that some skins are character-specific. My brother recently bought a bundle with crockpot skins thinking he would get to use them, but got scammed instead. If not specified in the description, at the very least the names of those skins should be changed to prevent confusion, e.g. "Portable Porcelain Crock Pot" instead of "Porcelain Crock Pot" or "Hermit Coral Meat Rack" instead of "Coral Meat Rack". 1 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/169197-misleading-skin-descriptions/#findComment-1847964 Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoxi Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) I'm pretty sure it might be an oversight because, for some reason, Pearl's Bee Box and Drying Rack have unique strings for them, but said strings are identical. BEEBOX_HERMIT = "Bee Box", MEATRACK_HERMIT = "Drying Rack", Usually SetPrefabNameOverride would be used to make a prefab use strings from another similar prefab, to avoid needing to make identical strings. Ideally, these ones should have unique names similarly to the house: HERMITHOUSE = "Hermit Home", HERMITHOUSE_PEARL = "Pearl's Place", -- used when at a high friendship level, for when she tells you her name (and have the "hermit" version of the string be the name used in skin menus) On 12/20/2025 at 10:51 AM, HowlVoid said: Why even have this limitation in the first place. I feel like that's probably the best way they could go about it now due to the misleading identical names: allowing them to work on the player version of the structures. Ideally it won't just be allowing the skins to work though, as that'll result in identical-looking structures despite being different, so they'll have to make unique artwork for them. This also applies if making other existing skins for player Bee Boxes and Drying Racks work on Pearl's.

ERTH404 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I hope they make the bee box and drying rack usable off the island. The description is really not clear i got the bee box thinking i could craft it anywhere. 1 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/169197-misleading-skin-descriptions/#findComment-1853376 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DegenerateFurry Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 @JoeW This seems like an easy fix, is there one planned? It's pretty misleading, people might feel ripped off if they mistook it for being what it says it is instead of Pearl-exclusive.

Volt Warly Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 It's indeed misleading that should be clearly noted that it applies only to the Pearls' Bee Box 1 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/169197-misleading-skin-descriptions/#findComment-1853512 Share on other sites More sharing options...
