Maybe the articles on charcoal and coke should be merged with this page on fuel since all three pages basically say the same thing. Bouchart 18:00, 22 November 2007 (EST)

Starting things off

Somehow this needs to be adjusted to show that to kick start your smelter you need some coal... or is there some other way of getting from bituminous coal to coke? fan I use some other furnace to get started? (I have plenty of wood, "rock" and bituminous coal but no "coal" or magma).GarrieIrons 09:27, 8 January 2008 (EST)

it already says "(fuel will be needed to power this at a normal smelter)" for the bituminous coal to coke reaction in the article. turn that wood into charcoal and use it to turn the bituminous coal to coke Chariot 21:55, 8 January 2008 (EST)
All right... someone at a different page said I needed coal and I couldn't find "just coal" mentioned ANYWHERE, hence my confusion.
So I need to "process" wood to get "charcoal". Will see how I go, thanks.GarrieIrons 00:18, 9 January 2008 (EST)

Is wood burning a skill?

I cant seem to find it on the skill page. Either that or this one should be changed

Wood Burner at the bottom of the Farmer section. It's there :) --Shades 18:02, 8 January 2008 (EST)

Block template

Over at Lignite there is a pretty little box which looks like:

Lignite
* * * * * * *
= = = * * *
= = = * *
= = *

Uses

Wikipedia article

It would be nice if there was one here too.

Secondly, what I would like to do on Lignite and Bituminous coal is have a pictorial formula which says: l lignite + 1 coal = 2 coke ( it would be like : ll + c = a but with pictures of the tiles instead of letters)

but I don't know how to do the tiles for lignite / coal / coke / charcoal. GarrieIrons 05:45, 10 February 2008 (EST)

refined coal

is a game term - what does it refer to? should be added to article.

refined coal is simply fuel. it refers to both charcoal and coal, not just coal -Chariot 03:40, 16 February 2008 (EST)
