User blog:Saulius Mickevičius/Another blog, of extra ideas of missing items.

Lava lamp - It doesn't have to be crafted from lava itself, or changing colours of lava with precious stones like Sapphire, Ruby etc. (like using anvil and having silver (or better) hammer in inventory you can craft dusts of that stone, whitch will colour the lava in lamp). Required - bucket of lava, bottle, dusts. Gains - Lava lamp (placeable, emmiting light), empty iron bucket.

Fish bowl - well, it is in game, but it should be placeable too.

Compass - It could show coordinates of player in the games. As the game is 2D it simply could show X and Y coordinates of the blocks. This would help a lot for players to remember where it have found some chest and stuff. Required - 5 gold bars, 5 silver bars, 5 iron bars (the number could change to higher as to craft it would be more difficult, thought). Gains - Compass (accessories item).

Map (optional) - a piece of paper, where it should save to the file (jpeg, bmp, png etc) information about world's blocks (the ones, you have seen, not the whole as it would make game not that interesting) when you have equipped it in your accessories slot. Requires - # wood (or some plants that would refer as papyrus).

And one more additional thing might be added. The tools can wear off and break. If you're mining harder materials (like stone, iron and other harder materials) the pickaxe might broke. Or add a low chance of breaking a tool, like 0.1% of breaking any item (excluding some accessories, that you can't craft).

Oil wells - in game there should be several caves with filled with oil instead of water. Black color, volatility like lava. Ignites from fire (candles are safe, but can ignite from torches or torch sparks) and lava. Mixed with water becomes useless or turns into dirty water (or just to water). Can be used to craft kerosene lamp, floor lamps, bottled oil.

Kerosene lamp - accessories item, that provides light for a period of time. Can be reffiled with bottled oil. Max items in one stack - 1. Value - 1 silver. Requires to craft: ## bars of copper (24 terraria hours), silver (48 terraria hours), gold (72 terraria hours), 1 bottled oil. Gains - Copper, silver or gold kerosene lamp (accessories item, vanity item for head, placeable object). Provides light while is in accessories slot, placed or in hand. Why vanity item? It should look really fun. Also as vanity item it gives you no effect and if you use as helmet, it could do damage half of lava. Size (X x Y) - 1x2.

Floor lamp - placeable item, emitting light. It could be crafted like candles but with more materials and bottled oil. For light source purpose. Size (X x Y) - 2x4.

Bottled oil - Crafted just like bottled water by standing near oil well. Used to craft lamps or potions.

Incendiary potion - Crafting - 2x Firebloom, 1x Daybloom, bottled oil, empty bottle. Effect lasts 10 minutes. Effect - Enemy, who hits player will take 30 - enemy_armor points of damage.
