Ihavenothing364 Posted 1 hour ago Report Posted 1 hour ago As stated in the title, what are the uses of linseed oil?
LadyWYT Posted 1 hour ago Report Posted 1 hour ago I think it's supposed to be able to be used in place of animal fat when crafting machinery.
ifoz Posted 1 hour ago Report Posted 1 hour ago None yet as far as I am aware. RedRam confirmed on the Discord that they plan to have it used with lumber, though that's not something coming in 1.22 (and likely not in the 1.22._ patch that plans to add other shelved 1.22 content either).
EnbyKaiju Posted 1 hour ago Report Posted 1 hour ago Having a look through a few websites there are definitely some uses that linseed oil could be put, but they raise more questions than they answer. For example it's useful in oil paints, in making plaster, varnishing wood, attaching gold leaf to things...etc. So in theory could be used for making higher-tier cosmetic blocks. Though like LadyWYT said the most practical use in game would be in treating mechanical components, or even as an alternative to leather making. Whatever it is, the devs definitely have plans, they love to think ahead for this kind of thing.
