Make Explosives from Sawdust

16 votes

Hey, gang. :)

Could we change the recipe for explosives away from using planks, and instead a larger number of sawdust units?

It would help keep sawdust as a viable item into the end game, rather than an inventory plug as it is currently, and would make more sense from a real-world stance.

(I have a complementary suggestion about making sawdust to compensate for the increased demand from this idea, titled "Make Sawdust from Lumber and Planks".)

Real life dynamite actually uses sawdust.

Don't ask me how I know this.

Without paper press, sawdust simply accumulates. This recipe would make it useful.

Additionally, converting planks into sawdust in a grinder would be a good addition too.

Making bombs more useful be great too. Could be a new spell category.

Very good idea. Dont need paper anymore. Nice idea to use our excess sawdust.
