Cheap Woods

@albucc i made what you mentioned but havent perfected it to be more acurate if your still interested i could post it and you could maybe give your input on what could be changed?

1.5? I really liked this mod

An important aspect of "primitive plywood" is that it is a bad product to place outdoors: it is nice to make beds, indoors furniture, but any primitive plywood structure placed outdoors would take damage over time, specially if it rains.

I like the idea of adding special woods to the game; I dislike the way it is placed in this mod, though:

I find it reasonable to exist a "primitive" plywood (made of wood chips joined by primitive glue), that would be an exchange between work time x having more material to work with (like say, 10 leathery = 100 primitive glue; 10 wood + 1 glue = 20 primitive plywood.

The primitive glue recipe would take a long time to build, https://cameo.mfa.org/wiki/Hide_glue but would produce a lot of glue, so it would be mostly a one-time effort.

Modern MDF should demand a "press" and an advanced glue based on chemfuel.

I would say "machining" would allow the construction of presses.

There are multiple types of "MDF'y" woods, either weak or stronger and more fireproof than wood. Check https://www.apawood.org/ .

The idea that Plywood and MDF yields more than the input wood holds, of course, since it is based on "recycling" marginal quality woods.

ShadowKatStudios patched it and thanks for showing me

I am, however, understand that some inconsistences are made due to balance reasons.

As someone who worked with plywood and LDF (not MDF, though), I'd like to say that your portrayal of plywood is flawed.

Okay well I did some digging because all my quest rewards are all plywood or MDF or whatever. The commonality of them is WAY too high. Vanilla wood has a commonality of 0.05, whereas MDF is 0.5 and plywood is 1.

I've patched it fairly simply (Plywood to 0.05, like wood, MDF to 0.025) but you might want to look at that.

1.3?

this mod work with Expanded Woodworking?
