Steel is the primary resource for mid to late game construction, and is therefore vital. Without steel, you cannot build new power generators, conduits, batteries, temperature regulators like coolers and heaters, or turrets and sandbags, so ensure that you have a steady supply. Steel appears at your crash site when a new game is started. After this steel is exhausted, it can be obtained through random drops, trading, mining, disassembling mechanoids, or melting slag into useable steel at an [[Electric Smelter]]. Steel can be mined from [[Compacted Steel]] veins, which can be found inside hills and mountains. Industrial traders also buy and sell steel.

Can sometimes be found off the bodies of raiders, as well as those who pop out of random cryptosleep caskets in buildings around the map, but the primary source is gold veins. You can sell gold to certain traders to get a staggering amount of cash, or craft it into golden sculptures that are perhaps the most valuable items in the game. It can also be used to create extremely beautiful furniture and structures that will help obtain that coveted "Beautiful Environment" mood bonus for your colonists, though this may be wasteful unless you are swimming in cash already and don't need much extra.

NOTE: As of version Alpha 9, colonists can suffer from a "High Expectations" mood debuff if your colony becomes too rich. Make sure you have plenty of mood-boosting effects to buffer against this before you start accumulating some real wealth.

Stone is produced from rock rubble via a [[Stonecutter's table]] after it is researched. To create stone right click the table, click 'Bills', and use the '''+''' and '''-''' buttons to set how many pieces of rubble you wish to consume. You must have a colonist with 'crafting' enabled in the Overview menu. Stone blocks are always produced in batches of 20 per rock chunk. Stone can also be obtained by deconstructing abandoned structures that are randomly scattered throughout the map, though these must be [[Claim]]ed first.

Cut stone can be used to supplement other valuable resources, namely steel and wood. It can be used to craft walls (even the conduit walls that carry electricity), or fancy floors with faster than default walk speed and less mood penalty. Cut stone can be used to craft everything from doors, automatic doors, tables, benches, to beds and royal beds. It is also the prime resource for crafting sculptures for colonists with the Artist skill.

NOTE: While doors made of stone are very hard for enemies to destroy, they also take a _long_ time to open, so consider making the Autodoor variant to save time. It also doesn't give nearly as much rest effectiveness as wooden beds do.

[[Human leather]]

Tanned, dried, scraped human skin. Most people find this material horrifying. Some find it fascinating. While a decent leather, it neither protects nor insulates particularly well.

Human leather is a type of leather produced when a cook butchers a human at a butcher table. It inflicts a mood penality on most pawns when worn as clothing.

[[Hyperweave]]

Nano-fibers woven into sheets molecule-by-molecule using specialized production mechanites.

The secrets of its production are known only to the most advanced glitterworld cultures.

Hyperweave is a space age, highly protective and rare fabric produced only on high-tech Glitterworlds.

[[Lizardskin]]

The tanned skin of a cold-blooded reptile. Lizardskin is reasonably tough, but does not insulate well at all.

[[Marble blocks]]

Blocks of solid marble. Marble is a soft, beautiful stone, known for being easy to sculpt.

Of all stone block materials, marble has the highest Beauty factor and stands alone as the sole stone to have a beauty bonus, and so is best suited to create art for your base. It is also a close second in terms of market value per unit of work, after sandstone, so is well suited to craft items for sale in bulk.

[[Megasloth wool]]

While somewhat coarse, megasloth wool's long fibers make it very strong. It is very warm.

Megasloth wool is a type of fabric gathered by animal handlers by shearing tamed megasloth. Megasloth wool is the second warmest textile in the game, after Guinea pig fur and tied with Thrumbofur, and is essential for colonies on cold biomes like sea ice and ice sheet. It can be hard to obtain lots of it as it takes quite a while for megasloth's to produce the wool (usually only enough to make one parka) and it is rarely sold by traders.

[[Patchleather]]

A weak textile created by cutting up and sewing together various types of leathers. Regardless of what kind of leather is used to create it, patchleather's irregular seams make it less tough and less insulating than any intact leather.

Patchleather is a type of leather produced when a tailor combines different types of leather at a tailor bench. Useful for combining unusably small amounts of different leathers into a single type to get a large enough quantity for use.

Stone

Stone Icon.png

Stone is produced from rock rubble via a Stonecutter's table after it is researched. To create stone right click the table, click 'Bills', and use the + and - buttons to set how many pieces of rubble you wish to consume. You must have a colonist with 'crafting' enabled in the Overview menu. Stone blocks are always produced in batches of 20 per rock chunk. Stone can also be obtained by deconstructing abandoned structures that are randomly scattered throughout the map, though these must be Claimed first.

Cut stone can be used to supplement other valuable resources, namely steel and wood. It can be used to craft walls (even the conduit walls that carry electricity), or fancy floors with faster than default walk speed and less mood penalty. Cut stone can be used to craft everything from doors, automatic doors, tables, benches, to beds and royal beds. It is also the prime resource for crafting sculptures for colonists with the Artist skill.

NOTE: While doors made of stone are very hard for enemies to destroy, they also take a _long_ time to open, so consider making the Autodoor variant to save time. It also doesn't give nearly as much rest effectiveness as wooden beds do.

NOTE: Stone walls and structures appear to take 3 times as much damage from explosive weapons (like Mortars) as structures made of other materials.
