A Standalone Synthleather Mod (ER)
(Originally from "Endgame Research")
In real life, synthetic leather is made from paper coated in a vinyl mixture. Vinyl is a versitile product derived from oil. Vinyl was first invented in 1872, and applied into fabrics in 1920.
Given the history and creation of vinyl, it stands to reason that it’s existence would be quite lore friendly in the world of Kenshi, even if it may not see widespread use.
To adapt the recipe for modern synthetic leather into Kenshi, it has been simplified to simply requiring fuel and fabrics, with the excuse of vinyl being made and applied as a part of the process, leading to the ultimate result of leather.
By default, leather in Kenshi can be difficult to obtain depending on where you settle, so this mod makes it possible to synthesize it yourself with nothing more than a few hemp farms.
