  Re: Sub-Parting
 
(...) I'm not a part author, but the issue resembles 'when to use functions' in programming. Reasons for subfiles i can think of based on programming experience are: - Re-usage of code (e.g. in a different color or different part) - Breaking down (...) (14 years ago, 2-Jan-11, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Sub-Parting
 
Making sub-parts is a very good method to keep file sizes down when large portions of code can be used twice or more times in the same part or in several parts. But my question is, how small can this code snippet be before it's better to not (...) (14 years ago, 2-Jan-11, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: 10152 Maersk promo ship comes back as 10155
 
(...) Haha... good point. Lego trying cash in on the demand. Hypothetical situation... does this mean that if Lego re-released the 10190 Marketstreet set... does that mean they would/could charge in excess of $150 based on market price. (14 years ago, 2-Jan-11, to lugnet.promo, FTX)
 
  Re: 10152 Maersk promo ship comes back as 10155
 
(...) That's my guess as well on the colors... What they said back then was true but not necessarily contradicted. (also, what if this time it's just medium blue instead of Maersk... the ad copy didn't, to my read, claim a rare color, but I could (...) (14 years ago, 2-Jan-11, to lugnet.promo, FTX)  
 
  Re: 10152 Maersk promo ship comes back as 10155
 
(...) I suspect the previous limited production run used a batch of pre-colored ABS granules. Now that many of the molding operations have converted to coloration at the machine, it may be easier to make special colors (ie Maersk blue) in limited (...)

  Re: 10152 Maersk promo ship comes back as 10155
 
(...) An interesting point, but not quite the same thing IIRC. The Maersk Blue issue wasn't a matter of cost; it was (allegedly) a one-time production of a very limited quantity of this very special color, never to be repeated. Until it seemed (...) (14 years ago, 2-Jan-11, to lugnet.promo, FTX)
 
  Re: minifig series 3 goes up from $1.99 to $2.99
 
(...) I hate to point this out.... but its called a price adjustment. If there is a high demand for a certain product, why wouldn't the company increase the price... sure its a case of the "greedies" but they aren't a charity case. You have (...) (14 years ago, 2-Jan-11, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: 10152 Maersk promo ship comes back as 10155
 
(...) Didnt we hear similiar noise earlier about a wide parts pallette (for Lego Brand Retail) and trying not to use lots of SKU's that it would be too costly.... we are seeing TLC making unusual parts and seeing the new catalogue with the 3 whole (...)

Hi guys, just a small bugfix for the following error: If a subpart has been saved with another name then the autocorrect method did not work correct (no separator between 's' and the filename). Download from (URL) comments are welcome. cu mikeheide (14 years ago, 2-Jan-11, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.announce)
