How to smelt faster?
Hi all, does anyone know how to make a s+ forge (not industrial one) smelt metal faster? In single player mode btw.

Possibly changing a setting in the .ini somewhere, but the rational thing to do would be to ask in the mod's forum, really.

I know, but i am sure tons of ppl here know as well :)

no it does not. it can however hold more stacks of items and pull resources from nearby containers or dinos. to significantly step up your smelting youd need the industrial forge (normal or s+) or build more forges
Cifer-X Aug 5, 2017 @ 5:24am 
Nope, i was playing on a server where s+ normal forge was smelting 1k metal per minute...
bladeforce Aug 5, 2017 @ 5:25am 
hmm must be some kind of setting then for the mod specifically...

Yeah, might be.

you get a 100% Speed improvement, when putting down another one ;-)


But you could take a look at this:

And you will find the answer you're looking for.

Thanks

Sounds like server admin altered the settings, s+ forge does seem slightly faster than vanilla (2 ingots at a time instead of 1 if I remember correctly) but deffinately not 1k per minute, I imagine the server owner had some ini changes to achieve this.

Thanks :)

you could also get the mod for ankyforge where it gets metal and smelts it in their inventory along with s+
(unless they took that mod down)
Cifer-X Aug 5, 2017 @ 8:00am 
I increase the smelt rate of forge, thanks everyone for help.
