Dye comes from the tinctoria plant. It can be used to to paint walls and other buildings or dye apparel and hair at the styling station

Acquisition[edit]

Dye is obtained by harvesting tinctoria plant. Each fully grown plant yields 1 before modifiers for Storyteller Harvest Yield and the harvesting pawn's Plant Harvest Yield. Note that by default, Storyteller Harvest Yield varies by difficulty.

Summary[edit]

Color availability[edit]

The below table attempts to catalog all the colors available. However, note that a different selection of colors is available for paint/hair/apparel, that each selection is ordered very differently, and that only the colors available as paint are named in-game.

Analysis[edit]

Even a small field of tinctoria will rapidly provide an excess of dye for dyeing. Clothes aren't dyed often, and hair even less, so there is little need to stockpile more than a stack or two for any purposes other than painting a large section of a base. Stockpiles of dye should generally be kept next to the styling station to minimize walking time.

Use of dye generally is of questionable mechanical utility, providing at most +2 mood. However, it can be helpful to make specific pawns or locations immediately identifiable by the player without having to make suboptimal material choices for apparel or buildings, and creative players can of course make good use of its aesthetic properties.
