String

String is an item that was added to the game in Indev. String is primarily received by killing Spiders, which drop 0-2 units on death. String can also be found commonly in dungeon chests, however, Spiders are a much quicker and easier way to get string in large amounts.

String has no special functions and can be only used in Crafting.

Crafting
String is a vital component to two recipes, the Bow and the Fishing Rod. String can also be used to make Wool, but this is rather wasteful as Wool can be obtained from Sheep. It is more economical that you save your string for making more Fishing Rods (which take damage and break) or more Bows (which do not take damage and will last forever, but can be used to make Dispensers).

Trivia

 * For a period in Indev, Mob drops were random. The Mobs at the time had a chance of dropping String, Gunpowder, Feathers or Flint and Steel. This was fixed in an Indev update on February 19, 2010. Spiders were made to drop only String, and other mobs dropped only their respective items.


 * Fishing Rods can be stacked even if they have different durabilities which allows you to constantly fix your rods so you would never have to make more than 2.
