Wiki says you can use 2 diamond, emerald, ruby or sapphire lenses. The In-Game Build Menu only mentions Ruby Lenses. I have diamonds but not rubies and don't feel like wasting time and resources if infact you NEED Ruby.

If this is a find-out-in-game thing and just let me know, because I won't even attempt it then. From my experience, your tools and resources have to match the exact spelling of those listed in the Build Menu, even when it's a typo.

Examples below show other projects I have had difficulty with which have all been resolved, but I see no need to try and even start when the Wiki may just be wrong. Thanks!

The wiki is correct. You can use your diamond lenses.

Yes, any gem lens should work. The in game build menu still has a few technical glitches in it, I think.

The wiki is almost always right, it is fairly up to date on things.

The same thing is happening with other stuff as well, see here. The people who can do this doesn't have the time.

The wiki is wrong about making oil at a tarpit.
Required tools

* iron or wooden bucket
* shovel or bronze shovel

A froe is also required.

Fixed, thanks for pointing that out.
