Template:Ls which are classified as flux materials can be used in the creation of Template:L and Template:L at a Template:L. All flux has a material Template:L of 2, which is twice that of common stone (material value 1), making it preferable for Template:Ls, Template:L, and most all stone products. (Only Template:L and some higher-value Template:Ls have a higher material value for stonework.)
Note that Template:Ls made out of flux materials cannot be used in the production of pig iron or steel.
The following stones fall under this reaction class:
- ▓ • Template:L
- " • Template:L
- ▓ • Template:L
- ░ • Template:L
- ` • Template:L
All flux stones form Template:Ls, except for Template:L, which exists as small clusters within other flux layers. Whether or not a site has flux can be determined from the pre-embark screen. Template:L, Template:L and Template:L form Template:L layers, which can have large deposits of Template:L-bearing ore. Template:L is a Template:L, so it can be found within almost any Template:L; notably, marble can be found in the same biome as Template:Ls (i.e. near Template:Les), unlike sedimentary layers.
Trading for flux
If your map has no flux on it (which is a common situation), then you can request it from the Template:L traders (assuming the traders have access to flux, which is not guaranteed*). Make sure you order (flux material) stone, which is in the material section, since you can't use flux blocks to create steel.
- If you are able to bring flux stone at Template:L, you will be able to request it from the Template:L in meetings with the Template:L (as with pretty much everything else), but they aren't likely to bring much, generally 3 or 4 stones of each type. Your Template:L industry may be better served by requesting steel bars directly or by buying up everything they have that's made of steel, especially toys, instruments, and crafts, and Template:Ling it all down.
