| − | This smelter is required to smelt the ore you mine into [[Bar of Pig Iron|Bars of Pig Iron]], [[Bar of Copper|Bars of Copper]], or [[Silver Bar]]s.
| |
| | | | |
| − | Production of metal bars may have a multiplier based on chance, but is primarily a counter which is influenced by the [[Ore]] and [[Lime]] ratio as well as any bonuses provided by the alloying and productivity [[Artifact]]s the character may currently be wearing. When the counter is filled to 100% a metal bar is produced.
| + | An {{i|Ore Smelter}} is an [[Fire#Structures which Need Lighting|Ignitable Structure]] used to Smelt Ore into [[Bar of Any Metal|Ore Metal]] Bars. It has room for 25x items. An Ore Smelter must be built outside. An Ore Smelter only accepts {{i|Charcoal}} as [[Fuel]]. |

| − | Ore contributes with a set value towards the counter, while lime gives a bonus for every ore in the smelter. Currently these values is unknown, but used to be: '''Iron, Copper, Silver = [[Ore]] * (2 + [[Lime]])'''. (Expressed as a percentage) | + | The amount Ore Metal Bars produced in your {{i|Ore Smelter}} is based partially on chance but mostly influenced by the Ore/Lime ratio and your [[Artifact#Alloying|Alloying]] Artifact Bonus. Currently, the best Ore/Lime ratio is 13x {{i|Lime}} and 12x {{i|Any Ore}} of one type. To smelt place your Lime and Ore in a lit Ore Smelter. After about 40 minutes 1x, or rarely 2x, of your Ores will be replaced with a corresponding Ore Metal Bar and the rest of your Ore will have become {{i|Dross}}. Each time a Dross is produced there is a chance for it become {{i|A Face in the Dross}} instead. Using a {{i|Little Limestone}} in place of one of your Limes may also increase the number of Metal Bars that are created. |
| − | | + | }}</onlyinclude> |
| − | Incomplete bars are carried over to the next smelting. Although a 72% batch won't give you a bar, the second time you run the smelter filled that way, you will get one full Bar and 44% left over (72% + 72% = 144%).

| − | A [[Little Limestone]], when used to replace one [[Lime]] will increase the number of Bars that are created.

| − | The smelter must be filled with 15 [[charcoal]] in order to be lit. The smelter will then burn for 40 minutes. It can be lit without anything inside, but it obviously should be filled with [[Ore]] and [[Lime]] first to be useful. The quantity and order in which you put the lime and ore does not matter.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Ore that could not be melted into [[Bar of Pig Iron|Iron Bar(s)]] will be left as [[Dross]], which can be used as building material where one would normally need to use [[Stone]], or as a decent speed raising fertilizer. Rarely [[A Face in the Dross]] will spawn in place of the Dross. | |
| − | | |
| − | [[Purity]] of the Ore used will transfer directly to the Bar with no effect from the Smelter, Lime, or Charcoal. Though take note that the purity of the previously smelted ore will affect the next bar depending on the % carried over.

| − | *To get the maximum amount of Iron per smelting operation, you should therefore use around 10 to 13 [[Lime]] to accompany your Ore,filling all the space. This way you produce any metal bars as quickly as possible while saving fuel.
| |
| − | *There is a decreasing return on your investment for adding additional Lime, so although the '''1st''' [[Lime]] is worth 22% of a Bar, the 7th is only worth 10%. If [[Lime]] is scarce for you, you can use less without wasting too much fuel.
