Crafting Materials — Havendock Guide

Unlock the secrets to gathering essential crafting materials in Havendock. Learn how to find cotton, milk, and more to build your ultimate settlement.

Hey there! So you're diving into Havendock and wondering how to get your hands on all those crucial crafting materials? Don't worry, it's not as complicated as it might seem at first. This guide will walk you through the essentials, focusing on how to gather key resources like cotton and milk, which you'll need for pretty much everything.

Let's get straight to it. One of the first materials you'll likely be looking for is cotton. The easiest way to get it is by setting up a scavenging tent. Once you've built one, you can assign your settlers to collect resources, and cotton will be one of the things they bring back. Another method, especially once you've upgraded your boat, is to visit Moon Island. There's a trader there who sells cotton seeds. You can then farm these seeds just like any other crop. Keep in mind, though, that you'll need to keep buying seeds from the trader as there's no other way to get a steady supply.

Next up, milk! To get milk, you'll need cows. Head over to Cow Island and purchase some cows from the farmer there. After you've got your cows, you'll need to build Barns for them. These barns act as both the input and output for milk, so make sure they're set up correctly.

There's also a handy shortcut for managing your buildings: if you want to insert materials into a farm or cookhouse without opening its full interface, just Shift + right-click. To grab the finished products, like milk from a barn, use Ctrl + right-click. This will save you a ton of time once you get the hang of it!

You might also see a desert island with someone stuck in a smelter. Don't worry about that one for now – it's still a work in progress and not something you need to focus on.
