Cottage Living CAS Item Mis-Tagged

This bug report Hughes-11 entry is about CAS Items in Cottage Living.

I have officially found over 500 errors in color filters in CAS.

Hi, I’m a tenured psychology professor who teaches on color perception – and my real name is Dr. Hughes (could be a fun pun with Hues as in colors). I find the biggest issue in the game for me, is that searching the CAS and BB catalogues takes forever, due to inefficient and mislabelled color filters.

Ambiguous colors seem to be behind the majority of these errors, but not all. When it comes to ambiguous colors, I know sometimes it’s preferable to split right at the color threshold (when aqua is slightly more green or slightly more blue), but I’d argue that’s not reasonable with so many thousands of items in the Sims 4. At this point, given the number of aqua and magenta items, I do think they need their own color filters.

There are a lot of issues with purples and pinks in the game, as purple appears to be defined as anything between violet and burgundy, except for a rose pink. Pink seems to be defined as everything from a pastel lavender, magenta, rose pink, light red, to a faded orange – which is half of the color wheel in pastels. I’m switching out purple for violet and defining pink as a cerise or rose.

Ambiguous colors definitions to refer to:

  1. Red-Orange (scarlet, vermillion, coral, salmon, peach).
    2. Orange-Yellow (gold, saffron, mango, amber).
    3. Yellow-Green (chartreuse, neon, olive).
    4. Green-Blue (cyan, turquoise, teal, aqua).
    5. Blue-Violet (indigo, periwinkle).
    6. Violet-Pink (magenta, fuchsia, lavender, orchid).
    7. Pink-Red (burgundy, wine, crimson, maroon)

Here's my ongoing chart with up to date errors:
