Verification

There's a lot of verification tags on this page for the "bars back when smelted", I'm not sure where that information resides, but I'm pretty sure It hasn't changed since DF2012. Antsy555 (talk) 14:15, 17 May 2015 (UTC)

-- This also means that it can't be rated higher than Tattered. Anyone looking to fix that; remove the {verify} tags. PeridexisErrant (talk) 23:45, 17 May 2015 (UTC)

((Verified everything but toys (not in my raws). New smelter built for each item type unless otherwise specified.

0.1 bars: Melted single items until one bar returned.

0.2 bars: Melted 10 items, observed bar return at 5th and 10th item melted.

0.5 bars: Melted 10 of each item, received 5 bars from each.

1 bar: Melted 10 of each, counted bars in smelter at end of run. Some of these were done in batches.

1.2 bars: Melted 9 of each item, confirmed partial bar in smelter by melting 0.1-return item until full bar returned.

1.5 bars: Melted 10 of each item, received 15 bars.))

Burrow restrictions

I removed this text from the article:

  • If a smelter is in a burrow and the items to be melted are not in the same burrow, then the items will not be melted. This is true even if the dwarves are not currently being restricted to burrows. At least in 40.24.

Presumably you accidentally enabled burrow workshop restrictions on your burrow (by pressing w twice). Burrow workshop restrictions are a "feature" that prevents workshops in the burrow from using items outside the burrow exactly as you noted. I verified melting works without workshop restrictions and fails with them (as expected) in v0.42.05.--Loci (talk) 20:31, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

Melting items made of ore

Can you melt items made up of metal ore? 2601:644:2:B64B:FD7A:8297:B4E7:23C 06:02, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
