Remove crafting leather items with puppet skin
It is not the same as an animal pelt and makes crafting leather items way too easy. Why bother to hunt and kill wild game if all you have to do is poke a puppet with a sharp stick, skin him with a sharp rock and boom.. make a leather quiver, holster, backpack, etc.

Good intentions, bad implementation.

Wild game is still a great source of meat and fat and will be even more important once our metabolism system is implemented. But I agree that, as of now, creating leather items is way too easy.

Remember when you could actually chop puppets and eat them, basically rendering any other food source useless? We do care about such things and we will change them with time!

Yes I agree, hunting wild game is certainly worth the time and effort, and tracking them is a nice touch. And i do remember when you could hack puppets and eat their meat and I'm glad that was removed as well.

I've stalked, tracked, and taken down wild game with a bow in SCUM, so a rifle is not required to obtain animal hide. It is a bit harder and takes longer but is satisfying when you finally down your quarry.

Thanks for considering removing the ability to craft leather items with human skin. i hope that happens sooner than later.

-1,000,000 You should be able to craft stuff out of puppet skins, this really has no impact to the game. Plus most servers turn down animal spawns.

Almost every item craft out of leather can be craft from cloth as well, only it would result into a less durable and generally inferior item.
I hope we see 2 version of those items on prorpely made of leather and the other improvised with cloth for getting started.

Maybe if they had to actually hunt for leather, they would turn up the wildlife spawns. +1 > -1,000,000

Thank you for feedback, we are noting down all of them and will change stuff if necessary.
