Everyone needs glass, but it is a long manufacturing process that often leaves newer players frustrated or confused. With a little planning, and a bit of patience, anyone can do it. Hopefully this guide can help!
Understanding Glass
There are three types of glass. Normal, Soda, and Jewel. Some glass products can be made from multiple types of glass (e.g. Glass Pipes from Normal or Soda glass), but most glass products require a specific type of glass. This chart shows all of the glass products, and which glass types can make each:
| Glass Product | Normal Glass | Soda Glass | Jewel Glass |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sheet Glass | YES | no | no |
| Glass Jar | YES | no | no |
| 12 Empty Wine Bottles | YES | no | no |
| Glass Torch | YES | no | no |
| Glass Pipe | YES | YES | no |
| Glass Rod | YES | YES | no |
| Glass Blade | no | YES | no |
| Fine Glass Rod | no | no | YES |
| Fine Glass Pipe | no | no | YES |
- Furthermore, each type of glass requires different materials to make it.
| Glass Type | Ingredients for 1 db of glass |
|---|---|
| Soda Glass | 1 Lime, 2 Soda, 10 Sand |
| Normal Glass | 1 Lime, 2 Potash, 10 Sand |
| Jewel Glass | 1 Lime, 2 Potash, 10 White Sand |
- Soda is a lot easier to get than Potash, so it is usually preferred to use Soda Glass whenever possible.
- White Sand is 10 times heavier than normal sand, and can be found only at certain places in Egypt. (see http://www.atitd.org/wiki/tale5/Atlas#Gathered_Resources)
- All glass requires lime to make.
- You should have a glaziers bench for EACH type of glass. A bench requires 19 units of glass in its reserve. That reserve is not workable, but must be filled before any glass can be made. That glass type must match the type of glass product you will make. You can empty a bench of its reserve to change glass types, but then you must fill it with 19 deben of the new type of glass. It is much easier and more efficient to simply have a glass bench for each type of glass, so that reserve is never emptied.
Process Overview
The process for gathering materials will depend on which type of glass you need, as well as what technologies are available to you. The simplest process looks like this:
