Linen?

[Misery]

Anyone know what this is for? 

Just found this while doing a rescue mission, tooltip SAYS it's used for crafting spells, but...... I dont see any that use it, and it's not in the "search by material" part of the spell list at all.

Is this some sort of leftover from earlier development, perhaps?  Or am I missing something?

Probably.  I keep getting "Lumber" from destroying stuff instead of Cedar Logs, and I don't think I've ever seen "Lumber" used for anything.

I think lumber is used to make some buildings.
I don't know if linen has a use, though if it does, it's most likely just buildings.

Neither are actually used... yet.  You can get both as common ingredients from destroying background objects of various sorts, so I left them in even though they're pointless -- you're not losing anything by picking those up, and when future spells use them then that will be actually helpful.

Perhaps some resources can also double as construction resources? Right now, all buildings require pretty much the same things; switch that up by using copper/iron ore/ingots, linen, quartz etc.

I believe construction materials are shared while crafting materials aren't.

[x4000]

Yep.  Construction and crafting materials can't ever overlap.

Oh, right... Forgot about that aspect of MP. Bah.
