<br />
A '''Tinder Plug''' is a material item used as Tinder.<br />
<br />
== Overview ==<br />
Tinder plugs fill the role of tinder, which is used for [[Fire Starting]]. Tinder plugs are the lightest tinder, tied with the [[Cat Tail Head]], [[Birch Bark]], and [[Cash]], and weighs only 0.05 kg per unit. Like all other types of tinder, it does not increase the chance to successfully light a fire.<br />
<br />
Tinder or Tinder plugs are required until Fire Starting Level 3, at which point they become optional and generally only used to get rid of the item.<br />
<br />
Tinder plugs can be found inside containers, crafted from most forms of tinder, or harvested from a [[Cardboard Box]]. At least one is also given along with firewood when chopping a fir or cedar limb with a [[Hatchet]] or [[Hacksaw|Hacksaw.]]<br />

==Crafting==<br />
Tinder plugs can be crafted or harvested from some fire starting items, such as [[Newsprint]], [[Newsprint Roll]], and [[Stick]]s. Harvesting these items provides additional tinder at the same weight, conserving inventory space. The most efficient example is the Newsprint Roll, which yields 4 tinder plugs.<br />
