Leathers

See also: Textiles and Fabrics

Leathers are a category of material obtained when a cook butchers an animal at a butcher table or spot. The type of leather is determined by the species butchered, with some leather types being produced by several species. See the individual pages of each leather for further details. The amount obtained depends on the Leather Amount of the butchered animal and the Butchery Efficiency of the butcher. Some animals, including dryads, insectoids, chickens, and ducks, do not yield leather when butchered.

Note that Patchleather is unique in that while it is classed as a leather for stuff selection, it is obtained by combining other leathers rather than directly from an animal.

Comparison table

Below is a list of material effects for leathers. When a stuffable item is created from a leather, each of its base stats is multiplied by a factor for that stat belonging to the material used. Take "Armor - Sharp" for example. For this stat, Plainleather has a factor of 0.81 and a duster has base stat of 0.3. Thus, the final "Armor - Sharp" of a Plainleather Duster before quality multipliers is: 0.81 * 0.3 or 24.3%

This process is then repeated for each stat. The material's HP factor is applied to the items base HP, flammability factor to flammability etc. Insulation is not expressed as a percentage and is thus slightly different. For an example of how to calculate the insulation for a given piece of apparel, see Apparel

Market value is the notable exception to this direct multiplicative relationship, but the value of a material does have a direct effect on that of the final product. See Market Value for details.
