Clay forming/zh: Difference between revisions

'''Clay forming''' is a crafting method that allows the player to place tiny cubes (voxels) of clay in layers that form a shaped container, which is then fired in a {{ll|Pit_kiln|pit kiln}} to finish the item. The forming mechanic is similar to knapping stone tools, where voxels must be added or removed to create the desired object.

To form clay items a player needs {{ll|clay|blue clay or fire clay}}, as well as dry grass, sticks, and firewood for a {{ll|Pit_kiln|pit kiln}}.

{{ll|Clay|Clay}} deposits are commonly found in temperate climates and can be harvested with bare hands or a shovel. There are different types of clay in the world, blue clay and fire clay. For tool molds and items like bowls and pots, either kind of clay may be used, but the {{ll|Bloomery|bloomery}} must be built with {{ll|Fire_Brick|fire clay bricks}}.

# The clay forming grid will appear on the selected surface. To craft the chosen mold or item, the 'green' colored voxels must be {{Using|filled}} and clay {{Breaking|removed}} from any 'orange' colored voxels to create each layer of the form. As each layer of the clay item is completed, the next layer will appear above the last.  It's helpful to sit on the ground (press {{Keypress|G}}) while shaping clay.  

# When all layers of the item or mold are completed, the dialog box will disappear and the formed items will jump into the inventory of the player who placed or removed the last voxel of clay. Formed items can be placed on a surface before firing and {{Using|picked up}}. Breaking will not destroy an item.

Many of the items made with clay are containers used in other types of crafting. Most baked items can be {{SneakClick|placed}} on the ground, and many pottery items can be {{Using|picked up}} again with an empty hand.
