Main / Skills / Alchemy / Natural substances / Dye
Dye is made from various items and water and is used to paint items and walls.
Colors
- Black - Tannin and iron lump/scrap (difficulty 40, hardest dye to make)
- Blue - Woad
- Green - Copper lump or copper scrap (minimum .8 kg)
- Red - Cave bug or scorpion cochineal
- White - Zinc lump or zinc scrap
Tools required
- Any container that can hold liquid
- Jar
- Small bucket
Items required
Method
- Put appropriate item in inventory.
- Put water in container.
- Activate item.
- Right-click on water in container and select "Create > Miscellaneous > <color> dye"
Notes
- Resulting dye will have three color values: red, green, and blue.
- R=255 G=255 B=255 is pure white.
- Dye may be combined and the values will average out (although they will be about 2 points closer to grey across the board).
- The higher the quality is, the brighter and less grey the color will be.
- Dye and water cannot be mixed to make a paler dye.
- The more difficult colors can not be made until after making some of the easier colors. Start with green, or maybe blue.
- To get rid of unwanted dye, just right-click and select "Pour" (don't worry, it won't leave a stain).
- 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 red dye.
- If failing to make green dye using a copper:
- A copper scrap of the same mass is created.
- The scrap is destroyed.
