Unable to dye sails

Post by Glox »

EDIT: solved, my bad, may be locked.

I tried to dye my sails for my windmill today, but it doesn't seem to work (Sail + dye in crafting grid does not give any results). I tested this with green and brown dye, none work, tried to dye normal wool and that does work. Maybe it's something to do with the conversion to 1.8 not being complete yet, but i thought i'd let you know anyway.

BTW version 2.96 (works fine), no other mods installed.

I'm pretty sure you right click the sails to dye them while they're already placed.

Haven't dyed a windmill in a while, though. Could be wrong.

You have to apply the dye directly to the actual windmill itself, like you would dye a sheep. So try right-clicking one of the sails while holding a dye, that should work.

*edit*

Just tried it on my own windmill, still works.

Really? never knew that, i assumed you had to color it before crafting the windmill. Guess i'll edit the wiki to make it more clear, and sorry for the useless post then :/
