Extreme biomes, where wood is scarce.
Chicken farmers! Build your hens a new coop out of the bones of their family!
Cultists. After all, alters to elder gods are best made out of bone!
Any hunting heavy colony. Before long, you'll be able to build EVERYTHING out of bone!
Cannibals. Got to do something with all those human bones
----------------------------------
How to obtain:
Bones - Butcher any non-mechanoid creature.
Calcium Polymer - A metal material obtained after the first bone research. 40 bones + refinery = 50 calcium polymer.
Bonecrete - A stone material obtained after the first bone research. 60 bones + refinery = 40 bonecrete.
Bone ash - An art material obtained after the first bone research. Created at the Crematorium (not the refinery).

F.A.Q
Q: Help! This mod is making me use the bone thrones for Royalty requirements.

Q: I don't like how many/few bones I get. Change it!
A: Mod setting for bone amount exists. Use it.
Q: I don't like (*insert stat here*). Change it.
A: This mod is 99% xml. Edit it yourself.

Bone Stats:
Version 2.0 of this mod has bone with identical stats to wood, with the following exceptions
Flammability is reduced to 0 (Bones aren't very flammable).
Sale value of bone items reduced to 75% of similar wood items (hopefully, if I set the correct values).
Bone can't be used to fuel fire items (campfire, stove, generator, etc)
Sharp and Blunt multipliers swapped.
