Campfire fuel?
Beside the obvious fuel already on the wiki (log, branches, twigs, plank, sturdy stick, newspaper, magazine, book, shoes), are there others we can use like clothes and such?

I tested and clothes can be used as fuel. They seem to burn about 20 minutes.

Edit : The wiki says 15 minutes on the item page https://pzwiki.net/wiki/Items#Fuel. It says shoes cannot be used as fuel but the option is there to add them as fuel on the campfire. If you add the "old" value on this page https://pzwiki.net/wiki/Campfire, you get a total of 1h of fuel per zombie (beside any other item they may carry that can be used as fuel).

As you can put multiple fuel items that will total a certain time (after some tests), it's more efficient to rip the clothes into Ripped Sheet.

Each Ripped Sheet is 5 minutes and a clothing item (except shoes) would give you 15 minutes. Since each clothing item gives up 7 x Ripped Sheet, you can get 35 minutes per item instead of 15 minutes (they also take 0.35 storage versus 1).

This means a single zombie, beside any other item it may carry, gives up 100 minutes of fuel (30 for shoes, 70 for 2 clothing items).
