Skill: Glass blowing

[jayt1990]

Well the idea is pretty simple, any thing that needs to be made with glass would also require this skill.

This skill would also unlock the ability to build a furnace. If you can make it so you can dig sand(similarly to clay and lime etc) and you fill your inventory with sand and burn it to make glass panes. Perhaps throw in some new inspirationals too like you get the fallen bricks.

Just thought that as we cant currently make glass panes and this something that i've heard alot of people would like this would be a good way to go about it but just perhaps make it a high 'Arts and crafts' skill.

What do you guys think?

Its been covered alot. If.. They decide to add it, it will cost about the same as purchasing glass.

You should be able to make a Lump of Glass with 5 Soda, 3 Lime, 27 Sand and a Crucible.
1 Soda should cost 10s from the town stalls.
A Lump of Glass should be usable to make a bottle, a jar, or 2 vials. 4 Lumps of Glass should be usable to make a Glass Pane.

Glass making is already in the works

Well, making glass isn't as easy as tossing a bunch of sand in a fire. I could see it working if you have to add sand, lime (from limestone), and soda ash (from plant ashes, but probably the part that would cost silver in this case) to a kiln like you do for iron in a smelter. Honestly, if it's going to cost silver either way, I'd rather just buy it from vendors instead of having a new requirement for a good base location (sand), but meh.

Apparently you will buy the mold. Then want the new system back after making the pain in the ass glass.

I think you mean old system.

But yes, it will be one of my happiest days when we implement glass making in the game and people beg us to give them the opportunity to buy the panes for only 200s again.
