Chocobo dyeing R&D Thread - Post your results here!

You feed them all at once, and continue to feed the amount even if you trigger the "growing new feathers" message.

What is happening behind the scenes is you are shifting your Chocobo's hidden RGB values around (even if you don't see the indication of new feathers). Each dye appears to have a range for each color (I.e. 25-35Red, 100-120Green, 150-160Blue for color "X") and if all three numbers are inside these values you will active that plumage color on your next change. When you see "growing new feathers" message, you have effectively pushed yourself from your current color range into the new one.

Sorry if I sound stupid, but from what you are saying, only when the message appears, you are triggered into a new range. So this means that EVERY feed is definite to change the numbers in the RGB spectrum, the only rng is the amount it changes by. ANd the reason why people take different amount of fruits to get the feather message is because of the rng in the amount of change in each feed. Am I interpreting this correctly?

Yes. You're interpreting this correctly.

Thanks! I'll update my results here periodically.
