Dye
,Added water to material ratios for all colors
# [[Activate]] item.
# Right-click on water in container and select ''Create > Miscellaneous > <color> dye''.
=== Ratio ===
* '''Black''' - at least 1kg of water per acorn. Produces 1kg of tannin per acorn. 1kg of tannin per 1kg of iron. Larger amounts of tannin and iron produce larger amounts of dye (unconfirmed).
* <font color=blue>Blue</font> - at least 1kg of water per woad. Produces 1kg of dye per woad.
* <font color=green>Green</font> - 1kg of water per 1kg of copper. Larger amounts of water and copper produce larger amounts of dye.
* <font color=red>Red</font> - at least 1kg of water per cochineal. Produces 1kg of dye per cochineal.
* <span style=background-color:grey;color:white>White</span> - 1kg of water per 1kg of zinc. Larger amounts of water and zinc produce larger amounts of dye.
When using more water or tannin than metal the amount of metal determines the amount of dye produced.
Since combining dye results in small loss of quality it is advised to create dye from one larger piece of metal instead of many 1kg pieces.
=== Notes ===
* Dye may be combined and the values will average out (although they will be about 2 points closer to <font color=grey>grey</font> across the board).
* The higher the quality is, the brighter and less <font color=grey>grey</font> the color will be.
* The amount of water used when making dye is seems to be irrelevant. Any amount of water seems to produce 1 kg of dye of the same QL and RGB value. The amount of water used does not seem to affect creation chanceor resuling QL or RGB value.
* 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 <font color=green>green</font>, or maybe <font color=blue>blue</font>.
