Growing Flax
« on: October 15, 2010, 07:59:54 pm »
Could you make flax available to use and grow? I thought it would be possible (it would make getting new cloth a lot easier), considering how long it has been used in the real world.

Could it be done? Or is there a substitute plant?

You see, here's how I think this works:
Overseer: Welcome to the military! You need to wear socks! Dorf: Oh, I should get military socks. My socks are civilian socks. Dorf discards socks Dorf: You know, I need a whole lot of gear now. I should get socks... last. Oh, but these steel boots with the white goo on them are nice!

There's rope reed if you're looking for an above-ground crop for weaving.

Never used Dwarf Therapist, mods or tilesets in all the years I've been playing.
I think Toady's confusing interface better simulates the experience of a bunch of disorganised drunken dwarves running a fort.

I think that for a suggestion of this magnatude, it would be best to head over to the modding forum. The people there are very good at what they do and could produce a flax plant for you.
