I've been playing ja and have a couple of questions about the crafting in the game:

is it possible to reverse the combination of two items? (since the game says 'permanently' i don't think so but it never hurts to ask)
How do you make molotov cocktails? (I tried glas jar + gas can= glas jar with some gas in it, rag or cotton I don't remember how its called ingame + glas jar with some gas in it.) wich gave me something that my guys can't throw so not a molotov cocktail.

permanent is indeed permanent (In JA2 some merged items can come apart when you're unlucky)
glass + oil + gas + rag = Molotov cocktail

thanks!

gas and oil seems a bit like overkill but hey if that what it takes. I'll go try if i can still add the oil to my previous attempt.

It did work so now i have myself a molotov cocktail
