Add rot to Wilson crafts!

[Catapult 2.0]

  There is already a recipe in transmute icky 3 for turning six rots into one manure, which is useful later in the game. Wilson will become more useful early in the game if a reverse recipe of this recipe is added.

  Giving Wilson the ability to turn one manures into four rot is a useful skill for both novice and veteran players. Allows players to quickly fertilize bushes early in the game and make booster shots in a short amount of time.

we collect light bulbs and either give them to a werewolf or look for a frog that will rot them quickly

  But this may not be fast enough, and novices may not know this, this is to improve efficiency for older players and to provide methods for novices (like converting nitre into gold to help novices who can't find gold make science machine)

This idea is too good which is probably why Klei didnt include it to start with. 

I feel like 3 manure into 4 rot would be a fairer balance, this conversion makes it almost not worth it for fertilizing bushes early game giving balance but allows you to get rot for specific crafts that require rot like the booster shots you mentioned.

even if Klei makes 1 for 2 rot, it's better to make a bucket of manure

but why? the only way i see this being useful is for somone that dies in the first 10 days and need booster shot, after this so much rot is made that it is crazy

If you need rot, and massive amounts of it.. set yourself up a Beebox farm, and most importantly- Continue to endlessly plant flowers.. plucking flower petal will eventual turn them into rot.

I know this information because I actually DO have a few noob friends I need to always build booster shots for as they die learning to play the game..

I highly recommended that YOU play as Wendy if your trying to help others learn-

There are several reasons for this- you can supply your noob friends with silk, used for top hats and also tents, you can also very easily gather Spider Glands to inevitably revive them 100+ times, assist in easily killing anything they’re struggling with (hound waves usually..) but perhaps for the most relevant reason to this topic:

Wendys Sisturn needs you to pluck and store 4 flower petals over into it, a newbie who stands near a Sisturn with flower petals inside it will passively gain sanity (super helpful for your super noob friends) but.. those flower petals inside Sisturn will also eventually spoil into rot and need to be replaced.

You can use this to your advantage to craft booster shots for the unlucky struggling souls your playing with.

I think the only other character that can possibly be even more “save my friends” capable is Wanda- Wanda can rewind their deaths like it never even happened.. Wanda is God Tier for playing with Noobs.

As far as Wilson creating Rot though… I don’t really understand the purpose when as I just stated: Plucked flower petals can be left to rot.

I suppose if your world somehow becomes completely empty of flowers it might be a good use… but even given that- there’s still this thing that exists:

Can you maybe explain why you’d want or need this feature??
