Cobalt glaze & glass
« on: October 13, 2018, 04:08:18 pm »

Historically cobaltite was used to add color to pottery and glassware (e.g. the iconic blue-and-white porcelain imported from China and then imitated in Europe). Since tin glaze is already a thing it'd be great if we could use cobaltite to get that nice blue for our crafts and buildings.

It can be modded in, but obviously, but yeah, it'd be nice to have it come as a vanilla thing.

It's in the plans, and if you look in the raws, Toady mentions it specifically.

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.
Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.
