  • Players are able to purchase and customize Decoratable Christmas Trees for a limited time
  • Players can visit Jane the Forester inside of the town of Terran and say "Buy", "Decor", or "Tree" near her (or double-click her) to view the purchasing options
  • Players will be required to purchase a Decoratable Christmas Tree Deed for the base of the system, but then will optionally be able to purchase a large number of additional items to customize the tree
  • All purchases are made with Gold only, and items purchased will be placed into the player's Bank Boxes

  • Most of the decoration items will come in a rare, randomized hue
  • Players can alternatively override that item's hue by using a Furniture Dye on them
  • However, some items (such as Ornaments and Lights) do not come in a randomized hue, so players should click and read the description listed for each item in the purchasing menu by clicking the "Info" button next to each item

  • Players can double-click the Decoratable Christmas Tree Deed in their backpack to launch a Tree Decoration menu, allowing them to add and customize other decoration items onto the tree

  • Players can click the "Add New" button next to each item type to take a Decoration item in their backpack and permanently add it to the tree

  • Many decoration items come in a random, rare hue (and can also be dyed with Furniture Dye), and players are allowed to add and store multiple Hue versions of that item in the tree
  • Players can only have a single Hue version of a particular item visible on the tree at once, and they can use the Hue Arrow buttons to rotate between hues they have added for that item to select which one is displayed

  • Players can also select Hidden as a hue option for items to make that item type not display on their tree

  • Decoratable Christmas Trees are a unique version of "Add-Ons" and players must click the "Place at Location" button in the tree menu to place the tree in their house (simply "Locking Down" the Decoratable Christmas tree will not work)

  • Once the player clicks the "Place at Location" button, the tree becomes an Add-On in the house (which can be moved with an Interior Decorator)
  • Players can double-click the Add-On to relaunch the Tree Decoration Menu and continue configuring it like normal (as if they had the deed in their backpack)
  • Players can convert the Add-On version back into a deed by clicking the "Convert to Deed" button or using an Axe-weapon to chop it (the deed will maintain all the items and hues added)

  • Players are only allowed to display one "Tree Top" item for a Christmas tree at once, so if a player has an Angel item displayed, it will automatically make any Star decorations Hidden (and vice versa)
