Cyanobot's Leather Overhaul
Yes, it's another leather-tanning production chain mod.
This actually started life as a set of patches for Owlchemist's [url=https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=1713884017]Simple Chains: Leather[/url], but it grew more features as I worked on it until I decided it was just easier for it to be its own mod -- which also allowed me to move to C# instead of XML patches for a lot of the heavy lifting.
Features:
[list]
[*] tanning production chain: animals drop raw hides which are processed in a tanning vat into leathers
[*] tanning is a neolithic technology, it starts unlocked for the classic start but not for the default tribal starts
[*] the tanning vat may be fuelled with:
[list]
[*] tannin, made from wood logs at a campfire or stove
[*] tanning solution, made from chemfuel at the refinery
[/list]
[*] hides are generated automatically from leather defs, so modded leathers are automatically handled even if not explicitly patched for
[*] untanned hides can be used for neolithic apparel and some neolithic buildings, but they are weaker than their tanned equivalents and cause negative "stinking hides" thoughts
[*] woolly hides can be shorn at a butcher table to get the wool and the leather separately, or they can be tanned as-is into a warm woolskin
[list]
[*] the amount of wool on a hide is calculated from the wool growth of the animal at the time of death
[*] if the wool growth is very low, the animal drops a non-woolly leather instead of the woolly hide
[/list]
[*] vanilla leathers (and many modded leathers) overhauled into the following types:
[list]
[*] lightleather = lightleather, dog leather
[*] plainleather = plainleather, pig leather
[*] thick leather = elephant leather, rhinoceros leather
[*] camelhide = camelhide
[*] birdskin = birdskin
[*] soft fur = guinea pig fur, also many small mammals that previously gave lightleather
[*] fur = wolf fur, panthera fur, fox fur
[*] heavy fur = heavy fur, bear fur
[*] polar fur = extremely warm, drops from polar bears and some modded polar animals
[*] woolskin = sheep, muffalo, etc (see wool mechanics above)
[*] luxury fur = chinchilla fur
[*] light scale = fairly weak but beautiful for small animals that would drop lizardskin
[*] heavy scale = tough leather for large animals that would drop lizardskin
[*] human leather = human leather (can't have rimworld without human leather)
[*] thrumbo fur = thrumbo fur
[*] dread leather = dread leather
[/list]
[/list]
Upcoming features:
[list]
[*] industrial tanning vat
[/list]
Compatibility:
[list]
[*] not really safe to add or remove from existing saves, might be fine (with some errors) but attempt at your own risk
[*] automatic compatibility with modded animals, leathers, and wools:
[list]
[*] animals automatically drop the raw hide associated with their pre-existing leatherDef
[*] (although without explicit patches, some animals that should be furry may drop plain hide, etc)
[*] modded leathers automatically generate a corresponding raw hide
[*] (without explicit patches, new leathers will not be folded into the broad categories above)
[*] modded wools automatically generate a corresponding woolly hide that can be shorn
[*] (without explicit patches the shorn and tanned leathers associated with the wool hide will take default values, which may not seem quite right for exotic animals)
[/list]
[*] any neolithic apparel that can be made from leather should automatically also be possible to make from raw hides
[*] explicit patches for a number of mods, see [url=https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/3419552924/591762129865961773/]here[/url] for full list
[*] [b]not[/b] compatible with Medieval Overhaul due to overlapping content
[*] if you use Animals Logic, you will probably want to turn that mod's "Harvest wool when butchering" off to avoid duplicate wool availability
