* Continued from Lumberjacking folder.

I don't see why bourde would make better containers at all, the stats on the material are exactly the same as silk and the only difference (besides the name) is that it's denser. I've heard before that the type of thread used can also cause some fluxuations in finished product and maybe that's what you're seeing? Either way, I'd love to see some copy/paste information that includes an analyze, measurements, and appraisal.

All four containers were made using fine silk thread for the stitching. I have no khaddar to check that as well, but from the trend I see here, I don't expect anything different from using it. The bourde and silk seem close enough in density (just a bit difference) that they're able to achieve the same weight in finished product, same with the ruazin and farandine, but the appraised price does go up by a significant amount. I think it is likely due to this increased value which makes it a bit harder to get material stats from a careful appraisal (even for a Trader)

I don't think material matters, just thread thickness.

Kodius commented way back when about maybe making special fabrics yield larger containers, but I don't believe he's ever revisited the idea. He's been kinda busy I think. Currently only the thread thickness affects the dimensions and carrying capacity of a container. Heavy fabric gives you the most weight at 1500 stones, 15 by 10 by 5. Thinner weaves give you less weight, but longer narrower containers.

Yeah, this was my understanding. However, some folks over in the Lumberjacking folder seem to hold a different opinion about it. Thus the request to see a copy/paste of the containers where they notice said difference.

>Kodius commented way back when about maybe making special fabrics yield larger containers, but I don't believe he's ever revisited the idea

Yeah, I remember this and I also don't remember anything ever coming of it. However, as I stated above, others seem to think it actually happened. Thus the testing and request for data from others.

>Heavy fabric gives you the most weight at 1500 stones, 15 by 10 by 5.

Those numbers don't jive with my testing/experience, are you getting them from a container you made? More details, please?

Ah shoot, my bad, mixed a few numbers up there,

Mastercrafted backpacks, duffle bags, haversacks and rucksacks of heavy cloth should be '14 by 10 by 7', and hold 1280 stones.

Once way back when I made somebody a fine fabric backpack to fit some really tall armor and best I recall it was something like '18 by 10 by 5' and held less weight.

Fine thread haversacks hold old longbows(new seem shorter).

average thread burlap Haversack is 16x10x6/1190 stones

Danoryiel used to have them all listed somewhere I thought.

oh... heh...
per Kodius 4/6/2013
>>The material doesn't make a difference. Burlap, wool, linen, cotton or silk will all come out to the same dimensions and weight capacity.

"Yeah, I'm reserving common materials affecting size for a later update. Rare cloth will give a larger container, however. That is coded in and should be working"

Yeah, just not seeing that currently. Unless I'm not using "rare" cloth and are using "uncommon" cloth, but since all the ones I tests (with the exception of silk) are from fest/quest... I dunno.
