Sea Sludge is a resource introduced in the Calm Before the Storm update. It can be obtained from Thermal Vents, either by picking them or by plugging them with a Sludge Plug.

Sea Sludge can be used to craft several items. It can also be used to repair leaks in boats. Or used as fuel for both Fire Pits and Lanterns/Miner Hats. It is equivalent to Boards when burnt, and restores 38.5% durability when used to fuel personal light sources.

Mod Compatibility

When Island Adventures is enabled with Uncompromising Mode, Sea Sludge and Tar can be used interchangeably in recipes.

Trivia

• Sea Sludge is loosely based on Tar from Don't Starve's Shipwrecked DLC. Both are thick, flammable substances that can be farmed on the ocean. Though Sea Sludge was imagined to be a bit more "Generic" than Tar as to make it more flexible in what it can do.
