About A Wilderness Smelter is an early game Ignitable Structure used to turn Bog iron into crude Bar of Slag Iron. Fueled with Charcoal. Break when done! Smelting Construct your Wilderness Smelter, fuel it with 10 x Charcoal and place 4 x Bog iron inside. Light the smelter with a source of fire and wait 1 hour. After waiting 1 hour use the Destroy action to break the smelter open. With the smelter open you can now 'scrounge for iron.' This will give you one to two Bar of Slag Iron and destroy the Wilderness Smelter in the process. From left to right: Wilderness Smelter as built, fuelled, after smelting, after breaking open.

Building Structures Selecting a structure from the build menu or its sub-menus will place a Building Blueprint Sign at the position of the cursor and then clicking a valid building location on the ground will place the sign and open a window prompting the player to deposit the necessary materials and build the structure. Each material is followed by a series of three numbers. The first indicates how many of that resource are needed but have not been deposited. The second number indicates how many of that resource have been deposited but have not been built into the structure. The third number indicates how many of that resource have been built into the structure. Players can take their time building structures by depositing and committing resources to the build sign by clicking the "build" button. The character will build as much of the structure as they can with the available resources. They can return with more resources in the future. Note that if no resources are deposited, the build sign will disappear when the player walks away. If resources are deposited, but the player hasn't built them into the structure, the uncommitted resources will slowly disappear over time. This is to combat players using build signs as cheap and overpowered storage containers they can deposit and retrieve resources from.
