Leatherworking and scaley beasts
« on: April 08, 2010, 08:50:23 am »

When I kill something with scales, like an alligator, it doesn't generate raw hides to tan, it just generates scales. Can I do anything with them? I want to make leather armor, but the alligators are the only thing around. Even when I broke into a cavern, I ran into crundles, which also had scales.

I've made scale armor before, try cleaning it like leather then use it in the leatherworkshop?

You want your dwarves to wear bling and croc leather? Doesn't seem very dwarfy to me  ;)

Sounds like time for some raw modding!

I'm betting scales cannot be turned into leather.
