    Since we are in America and this isn't Victorian England shouldn't we be using wood to cook with??? Texas is still in the union right?

    I see your point but lol.
    Anyway I agree that we should be able to use wood the way we use coal in game.

    I am more worried about Novian global warming from all this coal usage. Just yesterday I saw bananas growing outside in a snowy mountain scene. ;)

    Wood scraps perhaps... don't encourage the use of an expensive mat vs a dirt cheap one!

    Making coal from wood scraps is a really nice idea!

    What? Americans can't BBQ with coal now? I don't know about that.. But in all seriousness.. wood should be usable in cooking sure.. but it's not something I'm going to lose sleep over and the way crafting is currently set up would require every cooking recipe to have a separate wood variant.. which would basically double the number of actual recipes. Now if they went with MY approach to recipes they could simply define wood as a fuel and be done with it.. alas they opted not to go that route.. something about getting too complex. :p

    Wood tastes better, but coal has more even heat regulation. As a smoker of meats on occasion, using coal for heat in combination with measured wood for smoke is blessed magic to the tongue.
