So, I got a new cub. Neither of her parents had more than 10 slots. Neither of her parents had even 10 markings. I did not set out to get a cub with an extra slot, nor did I want one. She has a rosette in slot 16. I have two options: spend 6gb unlocking every single slot to get to the hidden rosette, or ignore it entirely. Given the rarity of rosettes, the second one doesn't sound so appealing.

Suggestion:
Make it so that rosettes can only randomly appear in slots 1-10, so that users don't have to spend 1-10gb unlocking every slot in the way to get to the hidden marking.



This suggestion has 75 supports and 0 NO supports.

Would be very nice to see this happen! It's honestly not worth it to unlock 1-10 slots every time a rosette occurs randomly or passes. Some rosettes are barely even worth that much, and you have to spend it to see what it is, to know if it was worth spending it on. If it's not, you're stuck with a cub that wasn't worth the price you paid just to see its marking...

...sorry about your Inverted Rosette Fallow, btw, since that's exactly one of those that isn't even worth the GB to unlock it (there's one for 500sb right now that wouldn't cost extra GB to breed onward).

I didn't even realize it was possible for a cub to get extra slot markings if the parents didn't have extra slots? .. If that's the case, I think the entire code for that needs to be rewritten, or surely that must be a bug - perhaps lending to the fact that rosette can usually only appear in certain slots? (Ie, mottled can only show in slot 6?)

All rosettes except for mottled can appear randomly if a lion meets some unknown qualifications (there are tons of threads trying to figure out what exactly this rosette combo is!). Right now it doesn't seem to consider the extra slots any different from the first 10, so it can pass in any 20.

So... I just had a cub born myself today with Inverted Rosette White in slot 11. Not exactly happy about this, although it's at least better than it occurring in a much higher slot.

It's just not feasible to breed down rosettes in those slots, given how rarely they pass in the first place. It ends up another added expense that frankly isn't worth it for the value of most rosettes. Not to mention that the inverted rosette kinda ruined the looks of my poor cub (always a risk anyway, so that's sorta whatever).

And making them pass randomly into any slot halves the chances of them appearing randomly in a slot that can actually easily be bred down.

Mm, yes, I have a theory on the rosette marking, I've done some researching xD! - I just wasn't aware it was capable of appearing in the upward ten slots if the parents didn't have extra slots also, so that's interesting :3
In which case, I'll be supporting this, since I don't think *any* marking should be able to appear without the parents having extra slots..
