| |
| − | This smelter is required to smelt the ore you mine into [[Bar of Pig Iron|Bars of Pig Iron]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | Production of iron bars is not based on chance, instead there is a counter which, when filled to 100%, will produce a bar. Each [[Ore]] in the smelter will produce 2% of a bar on it's own, but the addition of [[Lime]] will cause EACH piece of [[Ore]] to produce an extra +1%. 25 ore in a smelter will generate 50% of a bar, but 24 ore and 1 lime will generate 72%, a substantial improvement.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Iron = [[Ore]] * (2 + [[Lime]])'''. (Expressed as a percentage)
| |
| − | | |
| − | Incomplete bars are carried over to the next smelting. Although a 72% batch won't give you an [[Bar of Pig Iron|Iron Bar]], the second time you run the smelter filled that way, you will get one full Bar and 44% left over (72% + 72% = 144%).
| |
| − | | |
| − | The smelter must be filled with 15 [[charcoal]] in order to be lit. The smelter will then burn for 40 minutes.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 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.

| − | | | + | 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]]. |

| | | | |
| − | {| | + | 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. |

| − | *The order at which you put the lime and ore in does not matter. The picture above is just for to make it look good.
| |
| − | *To get the maximum amount of Iron per smelting operation, you should therefore use around 10 to 13 [[Lime]] to accompany your Ore. This way you produce Iron 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.
| |
| − | *If you have OCD, 20 Ore and 3 Lime will produce '''exactly''' 1 [[Bar of Pig Iron|Iron Bar]] with no leftovers, while using up just one single boulder. 10 Ore 8 Lime, or 5 Ore 18 Lime will also have 100% yields.
