Cloth

[huxi]

Let me issue some praise first: alpha7 is great! 

I have one issue with the way cloth is handled at the moment, though.

If I understand correctly, the only way to get at the cloth resource are cotton crops. My base is currently located in a jungle biome and I think there are no cotton crops on the whole map. I'd suggest that you add more cloth sources to the game, e.g. flax, hemp or similar plants, to circumvent issues like that.

Cheers!

why not grow them in your growing zone? But alternative sources could also be good

Cotton like most other crops is not a wild plant it is a cultivated plant which means you need to assign a growing zone or use hydroponics table to grow them.

Aaaaaah, thanks! I didn't know that! I was just using the growing zones the same way since alpha1.
