added uses for campfires
==Using==
=== Woodcuts ===
* '''Improving:''' Many carpentry items can be improved with Log or sometimes planks, ''Right click, Examine'' something will generally tell you what can be used to improve it. Activate this item by double clicking it, and this time when you right click the item there should be an 'improve' option.
* '''Creating:''' Carpentry items without exception generally require planks and/or shafts if they aren't to be made from a log itself, you will need to check what tools and materials they need. With the right tool active (by double clicking it) you gain a new 'Create' option.
=== Fires ===
* '''Light:''' Campfires provide light, if you need to work on an area in the dark where you need to see what you are doing and have not yet produced a torch or lantern a campfire may be your best option. This is also Good down in a mine, as the campfire can double-up by providing light and smelting ore at the same time
 
* '''Smelting:''' Although a forge is better for the Job, Iron Ore can be smelted in a Campfire to reduce it to an Iron Lump. You need to open the Campfire and put the Iron ORe inside, examining the Iron Ore will tell you how hot it is, once it is glowing from heat it will be reduced to an Iron Lump shortly. The lower the QL of the campfire the longer this will take, and the campfire will need to be kept well fuelled while it is being used this way.
 
* '''Cooking:''' Although an Oven is best, and a Forge can be used, both are better than a campfire for cooking, however if you are only making a Caserole, Soup or Stew the difference will be neglible.
 
* '''Baking:''' Although a forge is faster, A Campfire can be used to bake Clay goods and make them into pottery. The Quality of the pottery will not be affected, but it may take longer and/or more fuel to bake
