Renewable Items Only Challenge (with notes)

I had an idea for a challenge run where you were only restricted to using renewable items. Seems easy enough? Well I decided to actually think about it.

You'd assume that just because you can plant an acorn, which grows a tree, which can be chopped down to get more acorns and also wood, would be renewable? The way I've written up the notes for this challenge meant I put a bit more thought into it. Are the blocks you are planting the acorns on renewable? Is the axe you are felling the trees with renewable? As well as everything they depend on to be renewable? The answer is yes but I have the notes to prove that.

There are a few different markers in the spreadsheet, since the lihzahrd temple and altar are mandatory for progression, and the shimmer is only renewable with either post-golem materials or liquid duping, and the evil altars aren't renewable but might be in 1.4.5 so I was futureproofing, etc. I have also uploaded a notes spreadsheet that goes over the main core of items that you can more or less derive the renewability of any other item from, if you don't want to trust the spreadsheet at face value. Also I went and marked *every* item, regardless if it is one someone would actually use or not.

Feel free to give the challenge a go, I only ask that if you are uploading a youtube video (or any other platform) about it, that I receive credit for the idea, since this was not an easy feat.

Since I cannot upload spreadsheet files directly to the forum, both the sheet with all the items and the text file with the workings-out are here on a google drive. I will also aim to update it as soon as 1.4.5 drops.

Good luck if you wish to take on the challenge.

Side note if redigit is reading this and wants to make more items renewable, simply making lihzahrd bricks, the lihzahrd alter, evil altars, dungeon bricks, hellstone, and the hellforge renewable will cover the vast majority of items, and the bestiary will be 100% renewable if the fallen logs for fairies are.
