Re: Sand Update [Suggestion]
+1, I think Jason should be working more on base features than advanced tools, and this could be a step in the right direction

Definitely. Sand is a good thing but there are also other features that could gain more functions (pigs and worms, for example)

Bricks is brilliant. They've been around for 10,000 years.
Cobblestone would also be good.

Oh actually didn't know that, sandy soil could be used for turnips / beets without changing carrots/potatoes.
They've been around for 10,000 years.
Yep, that's why I think it's weird that such an important and ancient piece of technology is still missing.
Thanks everyone for the positive feedbacks

All root vegetables like sandy soil. Makes it easier for them to grow and discourages root rot by allowing better drying and drainage. Also pine trees like sandy soil.

Re: Sand Update [Suggestion]
Yes to sand. Brick recipe would need to be tweaked though (I'm not seeing the "hit clay with hammer" angle you're going for). Bricks have been traditionally made by pressing clay in wooden forms (kinda like ice cube trays). The "green" bricks are removed, allowed to air dry, and fired in a kiln. So you're mostly there, you just need a wooden form recipe and a way to press them.
Boards + Froe = Narrow boards (x2)
Narrow boards (x2) + Rope = Empty Brick Form
Bowl of Sand + Clay = Bowl of Sandy Clay
Bowl of Sandy Clay + Empty Brick Form = Full Brick Form
Full Brick Form + (Some way to press the bricks) = Full Pressed Brick Form
Full Pressed Brick Form + Hand = Green Bricks (4) + Empty Brick Form
Green Bricks + 20s = Unfired Bricks
Unfired Brick + Tongs + Kiln = Fired Brick
Given the amount of work required to get them, they should have a high yield (at least 4 per pressed batch), and they should last a good long time. The bricks themselves maybe last forever, even if the walls they're built into don't.
