New Tanning material.

Postby KitsuneG » Fri Mar 27, 2020 11:47 am

One of the most ancient known tan material is dried(until it become white) dogshit.

According to my research via wiki and books, it tan hides faster(and were pretty valuable) than bark or rot, and take less amount to create tanning fluid. The problem is it's need to be properly dried, thats why was abandoned through time.

Guess would be fine addition if dogs sometimes will be implemented, but for now could be fun to find wolfshit at mountains.

P.S. iin addition wolfshit could be used to make a simple repellent to make wolfs less aggresive to heartling for some time.

dogshit only turns white if theres an exces of calcium in the dog's food(bone meal).
which is unhealthy for it.

Human Urine was also used to tan hides, and people even collected it into jars to sell to tanners. It is implied that hearthlings still need to relieve themselves via the existence of the "Bum Burn" damage. Perhaps an action could be added to fill a tanning tub with urine via an action, slowly filling it but also draining your stamina bar?
