== Colors ==
:* '''Black''' - [[Tannin]] and [[iron lump]] (difficulty 40, hardest dye to make):* <font color=blue>Blue</font> - [[Woad]]:* <font color=green>Green</font> - [[Copper lump]] (minimum .8 kg):* <font color=red>Red</font> - [[Cave bug]] or [[scorpion]] [[cochineal]]:* <span style=background-color:grey;color:white>White</span> - [[Zinc lump]]
Different colors can be mixed together to make other colors through the use of combining. Other colors can also be obtained by mixing cochineals, copper lumps, or woad into an existing dye.
* The more difficult colors can not be made until after having made some of the easier colors or [[healing cover]]s When making dye with metal lumps, there is no need to gain [[natural substancesheat]] skill. Start with <font color=green>green</font>, or maybe <font color=blue>blue</font>.* Different colors can be mixed together to make other colors through the use of combining. Other colors can also be obtained by mixing cochineals, copper lumps, or woad into an existing dyethem up first.
== Tools required ==
* Any [[container]] that can hold [[liquid]], like [[pottery jar]] or [[small bucket]].* Larger quantities of dye can be stored/mixed in a [[small pottery amphora]] or [[large pottery amphora]].
== Items required ==
=== Ratio ===
* <span style=background-color:lightgrey;color:black>Black</span> - at least 1kg of water per [[acorn]]. Produces 1kg of [[tannin]] per acorn. 1kg of tannin per 1kg of [[iron lump]]. **Larger amounts of tannin and iron produce larger amounts of dye.
* <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 lump]]. **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:black;color:white>White</span> - 1kg of water per 1kg of [[zinc lump]]. **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. Sometimes a water to metal ratio that's not exactly 1:1 will only use the same amount of water as metal and leave some water in the container. You will get the message that ''Not all the dye would fit'' and the dye is lost. Therefore it is advised to use an exact 1:1 ratio.
* Dye's RGB values can be changed using the base material.
** Higher ql base material hightens RGB values
** To change the <font color=red>red</font> value use a [[cochineal]]
** To change the <font color=green>green</font> value use a [[copper lump]]
** To change the <font color=blue>blue</font> value use [[woad]]
** Cannot improve all values with [[zinc lump]] (white)
* The amount of water used does not seem to affect creation chance or resulting QL or RGB value.** Using a [[pottery jar]] with 8 [[Hazelnuts]] will leave room for only 1kg of water.
* Dye and water cannot be mixed to make a paler dye.
* 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 <font color=red>red</font> dye.
* If [[failing]] to make <font color=green>green</font> dye the mass of ...** the copper lump is decreased by 0.1.* If [[failing]] to make <font color=red>red</font> dye the quality of * the [[cochineal]] is reduced by 0.5 quantity of water is reduced by 0.1.* If [[failing]] to make <font color=blue>blue</font> * the [[woad]] is reduced in quality by 0.5* If [[failing]] to make <font color=black>black</font> dye the weight of * the iron lump is decreased by 0.1 and the volume of tannin is decreased by 0.1
* To get rid of unwanted dye, just right-click and select ''Pour'' > ''On ground'' - don't worry, it won't leave a stain.
* Black dye has little effect on a light source (No black light) and only dims the light a little. And it doesn`t dim light sources around it.
** Testing reveals ''An excellent black dye (R=12 B=12 G=13) on a 45ql lantern light looks the same as a 40ql no dye lantern and a little dimmer than a 43ql white dyed lantern.''
* A 2.5ql rare copper lump produced a 3.5ql dye
==Usage==
# Right-click on item and select 'Paint'.
Paintable items include: building walls, fences, chests, barrels, buckets, signs, carts, catapults, pottery, lanterns, statues, and boats. Note that clothing items may be dyed, but the colour will only show when the item is on the ground, not when it is equipped. This includes shields.
The amount of dye used depends on the item being painted:. If you do not have enough dye activated, you will get the message {{event|inline|You need more dye to colour that item - at least <# amount> g of dye.}} ==Dye requirements== <div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">===All Dyeable Items===<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
