Why We No Use Jars?

[Lunarius_Haberdash]

So it occurred to me today that we have these jars that hardly get used for anything...

And we have things like Hartshorn salve, Kelp Cream, etc, that clearly should require a jar.

Why do we not have jars that can hold these things? I'm figuring it has something to do with the way wounds and treatments are handled. But.

Let's get the ability to put treatments that SHOULD be in jars, in jars. Then add large jars (two inventory space jars) that can hold larger amounts of stuff.

Things that should be in a jar:
Mud Ointment
Kelp Cream
Hartshorn Salve
Toad Butter
Opium (clearly)
Stinging Poultice??

Just a thought, but it seems like a good way to manage medicines and add utility to the jars. (Wouldn't it be nice to have a big jar of Hartshorn Salve instead of a half/cupboard of it?)

Amber client has jars already though?

Probably because devs are too lazy!

lets just remove jars entirely and replace jar-only items/substances with similar situations to kelp cream/salve etc, whereas if you craft a rustroot extract you get a 4 charged item that you can use.

fuck jars

Nope... MORE JARS.

could be an optional container for maximizing slot capacity, good for travelers

people asked for small containers to split liquids. Jars would fit well.

I'd gladly exchange huge numbers of inventory slots to be able to use inventories within inventories. Similar to the keychain and bucket. Instead you get jars for your weed and handbaskets for foraging mushrooms.

I don't mind jars. They are easy and cheap to make in mass. However they should only be used to store things with multiple applications. Looking at your list I think it would be fine as long as the recipes remain the same and the jar is merely a storage place for multiples of them.

I agree that the current system of either having to decide whether you want to carry 8 feathers or 8 bars of steel is stupid!
