[Feature Request] Copper Flask (Mid-Game Item Option)

[ffuentesm]

Would it be possible to add a "Copper Flask" option? It would just have double the capacity of the leather flask, and be made from Copper sheet. 

This would help a lot as a mid-game option. I do not go hunting animals that often, so I think that an option for when you start forging would be nice. Since Steel is quite a late-game metal to obtain, I feel that copper would be a good option for mid-game time, since even if you can get access to copper in the early game, you would be hoarding the pieces for tools and the anvil.

@ffuentesm The first metal flask is available at wrought iron. Plus I'm not sure you'd want a copper flask, copper poisoning and all that.

That is what I am talking about: to obtain wrought iron, you need a blummery, and to reach that point, you will need to surpass the bronze tier. I suggested Copper since you can easily collect small pieces from rivers, and on the surface, you can use a charcoal pit or fire pit to smelt it.

They do sell Copper Water Bottles and Copper Cooking implements. But if you are worried about that, you can have it be Brass, since you can alloy it inside of a vessel, and Zinc is used to combat copper poisoning.

@ffuentesm Something doesn't add up here. Firstly wrought iron is the mid-game option. There's leather, iron and red steel. Most the time my leather flask lasts long enough until I have iron to make an iron flask.

All flasks use a bladder as an ingredient, bladders are usually dropped by larger creatures that have medium/large hides and aren't guaranteed so you might have to kill a few. By then you will have the leather since you only need 2 leather for a flask.

I'd accept a PR for a copper flask, but I don't see enough utility to write it myself and would expect it to have the same recipes otherwise.
