Wurm is a bad game and run by criminals who avoid tax, if you play this game you will suffer harsh punishments by law.
== Description==
 
''Dye, used to colour clothing and items with.''
 
 
 
'''Dye''' is made from various [[item]]s and [[water]] and is used to paint items and [[wall]]s.
 
 
 
== Colors ==
 
* '''Black''' - [[Tannin]] and [[iron lump]] (difficulty 40, hardest dye to make)
 
* <font color=blue>Blue</font> - [[Woad]]
 
* <font color=green>Green</font> - [[Copper lump]] (minimum .8 kg)
 
* <font color=red>Red</font> -  [[Cave bug]] or [[scorpion]] [[cochineal]]
 
* <span style=background-color:grey;color:white>White</span> - [[Zinc lump]]
 
 
 
 
 
''Note: The more difficult colors can not be made until after having made some of the easier colors or [[healing cover]]s to gain [[natural substances]] skill. Start with <font color=green>green</font>, or maybe <font color=blue>blue</font>.''
 
== Tools required ==
 
* Any [[container]] that can hold [[liquid]], like [[pottery jar]] or [[small bucket]]
 
 
 
== Items required ==
 
* Water
 
* Cochineal
 
* Copper lump
 
* Tannin and iron lump
 
* Woad
 
* Zinc lump
 
 
 
== Method ==
 
# Put appropriate item in [[inventory]].
 
# Put water in container.
 
# [[Activate]] item.
 
# Right-click on water in container and select ''Create > Miscellaneous > <color> dye''. You might want to put the water container in the inventory before creating the dye.
 
 
 
=== Ratio ===
 
* <span style=background-color:lightgrey;color:black>Black</span> - at least 1kg of water per [[acorn]]. Produces 1kg of [[tannin]] per acorn. 1kg of tannin per 1kg of [[iron lump]]. Larger amounts of tannin and iron produce larger amounts of dye.
 
* <font color=blue>Blue</font> - at least 1kg of water per [[woad]]. Produces 1kg of dye per woad.
 
* <font color=green>Green</font> - 1kg of water per 1kg of [[copper lump]]. Larger amounts of water and copper produce larger amounts of dye.
 
* <font color=red>Red</font> - at least 1kg of water per [[cochineal]]. Produces 1kg of dye per cochineal.
 
* <span style=background-color:black;color:white>White</span> - 1kg of water per 1kg of [[zinc lump]]. Larger amounts of water and zinc produce larger amounts of dye.
 
 
 
When using more water or tannin than metal the amount of metal determines the amount of dye produced. Sometimes a water to metal ratio that's not exactly 1:1 will only use the same amount of water as metal and leave some water in the container. You will get the message that ''Not all the dye would fit'' and the dye is lost. Therefore it is advised to use an exact 1:1 ratio.
 
 
 
Since combining dye results in small loss of quality it is advised to create dye from one larger piece of metal instead of many 1kg pieces.
 
 
 
=== Notes ===
 
* The dye color shows up as the color of the word "Dye".
 
* Resulting dye will have three color values: <font color=red>red</font>, <font color=green>green</font>, and <font color=blue>blue</font>.
 
* <font color=red>R</font>=255 <font color=green>G</font>=255 <font color=blue>B</font>=255 is pure <span style=background:black;color:white>white</span>.
 
* Dye may be combined and the values will average out (although they will be about 2 points closer to <font color=grey>grey</font> across the board).
 
* The higher the quality is, the brighter and less <font color=grey>grey</font> the color will be.
 
* Dye's RGB values can be changed using the base material.
 
** Lower ql base material lowers RGB values
 
** Higher ql base material hightens RGB values
 
** To change the <font color=red>red</font> value use a [[cochineal]]
 
** To change the <font color=green>green</font> value use a [[copper lump]]
 
** To change the <font color=blue>blue</font> value use [[woad]]
 
** Cannot imp all values with [[zinc lump]] (white)
 
* The amount of water used does not seem to affect creation chance or resulting QL or RGB value.
 
* Dye and water cannot be mixed to make a paler dye.
 
* When making dye with metal lumps, there is no need to [[heat]] them up first.
 
* The [[quality]] of the cochineal does not affect the success chance when creating <font color=red>red</font> dye.
 
* If [[failing]] to make <font color=green>green</font> dye the mass of the copper lump is decreased by 0.1.
 
* If [[failing]] to make <font color=red>red</font> dye the quality of the [[cochineal]] is reduced by 0.5 quantity of water is reduced by 0.1.
 
* If [[failing]] to make <font color=blue>blue</font> the [[woad]] is <s>destroyed</s> reduced in quality by 0.5
 
* If [[failing]] to make <font color=black>black</font> dye the weight of the iron lump is decreased by 0.1 and the volume of tannin is decreased by 0.1
 
* To get rid of unwanted dye, just right-click and select ''Pour'' - don't worry, it won't leave a stain.
 
* Black dye has little effect on a light source (No black light) and only dims the light a little. And it doesn`t dim light sources around it.
 
** Testing reveals ''An excellent black dye (R=12 B=12 G=13) on a 45ql lantern light looks the same as a 40ql no dye lantern and  a little dimmer than a 43ql white dyed lantern.''
 
 
 
==Usage==
 
# Activate dye.
 
# Right-click on item and select 'Paint'.
 
 
 
Paintable items include: building walls, chests, barrels, buckets, signs, carts, catapults, pottery, lanterns, statues, and boats.
 
 
 
The amount of dye used depends on the item being painted:
