== Description ==
Clay is a ''Grey sticky and soft resource found in [[clay tile]]s that can could be easily formed into [[pottery]] items like [[clay bowl]]s, [[clay flask]]s, or [[clay jar]]s. [[Masonry|Masons]] also make use of clay as a bonding material for the [[stone brick]]s used in [[guard tower]]s and [[stone forge]]s, or to mix the better bonding material [[mortar]] to build [[stone house]]s, for example.''
Clay, once [[digging|dug]] up, has a high [[decay]] speed and is pointless to store for more than a few days. It can however be kept in obtained by digging on a [[Bulk storage bin]]. [[Clay clay tile]]s can only be raised by dropping [[dirt]] or [[sand]]. They cannot be lowered by [[digging]], or [[Flattening]], and cannot be changed to another type of tile.
== Notes ==
* Clay items can be heated in a forge, campfire or [[Kiln]] to become pottery items.
* Clay has a high [[decay]] speed.
* "Continue Building" will only use 2kg of a lump at a time.
* Building failures will damage the whole lump, not just the 2kg part of it that was used
* Clay items can not be changed back into clay.
To transport a large quantity of clay, you will probably have to combine it. Even a ==See Also==*[[Clay tile]]*[[small cartPottery]] will likely hold more than 100 2kg lumps of clay. If you do so, be aware of the following:* Some constructs that are started with clay will use the entire lump, regardless of the amount needed, when it is used to start the construct (see [[forgeDigging]]).* "Continue Building" will only use 2kg of a lump at a time[[Shovel]]* Building failures will damage the whole lump, not just the 2kg part of it that was used[[Mortar]]* Lumps will automatically be split if you attempt to pick up a larger lump than you can carry at the time. Thus, by carrying a heavy item and trying to pick up a large lump of clay, you can end up with a smaller portion of the lump instead.[[Concrete]]
