Main / Skills / Alchemy / Natural substances / Dye

Dye, used to colour clothing and items with.

Dye is made from various items and water and is used to paint items and walls.

Colors

Tools required

Items required

  • Water
  • Cochineal
  • Copper lump or copper scrap
  • Tannin and iron lump or iron scrap
  • Woad
  • Zinc lump

Method

  1. Put appropriate item in inventory.
  2. Put water in container.
  3. Activate item.
  4. 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.

Usage

  1. Activate dye.
  2. Right-click on item and select 'Paint'.
