Sorry, you need a fishbone needle.

#1 Post by Cuetlachtli » Wed Dec 17, 2008 9:34 am

When making a tent, I can only seem to get it to work when I have the fishbone and make the first tent, breaking up the fishbone into many small white needles.

The make command doesn't seem to work with the needles that are left over, or I just am unaware of the syntax to make it work.

Any tips?

I'd guess it is a bug.

Turns out, if anyone else happens to encounter this, that the system gets confused when you have any other needles in your inventory. Having an iron needle or even other small white needles makes it not work.

The solution is to drop all of your needles and grab one at at time to make each tent

Many thanks to poArthur for clearing that one up for me!
