Materials are the most basic resources. They are used for structures, buildings, apparel, weapons and more.
Stuff
Materials are grouped in five stuff categories:
- Stony for all types of stone.
- Metallic for all metals.
- Woody for wood.
- Leathery for all leathers.
- Fabric for all fabrics.
So called "stuffable" buildings and items (walls, armchairs, longswords, plate armor etc.) have stuff tags. They determine from which stuff categories the building or item can be made of. The player can choose any material from these stuff categories to build or craft that building or item. The stats of the end product are then affected by the modifiers of the used material.
Comparison Table
The following table shows all materials, their stuff category and all their modifiers. The empty cells give a good overview which materials can't be used for what kind of building or item.
- Fabrics and leathers can't be used for weapons, doors and beds
- Stone can't be used for apparel. (Note that even though jade has armor and insulation modifiers, it can't be used for any type of apparel.)
