Lysh Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Spider monkeys seem to drop more hair than silk (I wish it were the opposite because the lack of silk makes it harder to get a bird friend), so I'm not sure if there's anything up your sleeves for the final Hamlet, but it'd be nice to see more uses for hair other than meat effigies. I'm not sure what to do with the hair otherwise and I mostly just hope for silk when I'm hammering pots than dealing with those apes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeklo Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 The main way of acquiring silk is by cutting down the cocooned trees. Once one has been chopped a new tree will immediately be re-cocooned, but only if spider monkeys are still alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charsis Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 @Zeklo you sure about that? But it's just jungle trees not cork ones, right? Then you need to replant them when you rarely get seeds, so silk still a huge problem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve found it challenging to chop them down without killing all the monkeys, but it can be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lysh Posted October 29, 2018 Author Share Posted October 29, 2018 I guess not killing them would cut down on how much useless hair I acquire. It's difficult to get at those trees without interacting with the monkeys (especially when I'm playing Wendy, Abigail goes after them). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cocooned ones are just the jungle trees with different texture, so I was wondering if these could be replanted. Good source of early silk, not later on even if renewable, too rare.

Good source of early silk, not later on even if renewable, too rare. As soon as a cocooned tree is cut down a new one is immediately cocooned. So unless it runs out of trees there will constantly be the same amount. Just make sure to restore the tree population during lush season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
