Sturdy Stick

General

Usage

Fire starting

A sturdy stick can be used in conjunction with a notched wooden plank to start a fire. To light a campfire, first ensure that fuel has already been added to the campfire, which will act as the kindling. The player must have the notched wooden plank and sturdy stick in their inventory. Right-clicking the campfire and selecting "Light Fire" > "Notched Wooden Plank + Sturdy Stick" will cause the player to attempt to light the fire, although there is a chance that they will fail, breaking/destroying the sturdy stick. If successful, the campfire will burst into flames, while the sturdy stick and notched wooden plank will be returned to the player's inventory. It is not possible to start a fire this way while exhausted.

Note that this method of fire starting can only be used for lighting a campfire and antique oven, and will not work for lighting a charcoal barbecue.

Fuel

Sturdy sticks have an additional use as a fuel for fires, and last for 15 minutes if used this way. This is the lowest burning time of any item.

Recipes
