Fuel needed without magma
I can't verify it at the moment, but did this change in the new version? I'm pretty sure it was like this in 40d:
| smelting 2 iron bars: | 2 fuel (2 jobs) |
| smelting 1 pig iron bar: | 1 fuel (1 job) |
| smelting 2 steel bars: | 1 fuel (1 job) |
| total: | 4 fuel |
Yea it's still like this.
- You need another coke to carbonize the iron into pig iron. Then you need another coke to make the steel, even though you should actually be removing carbon from the pig iron in that step. So I think without magma you need a total of 6 fuel. Agree? If so, correct the article.
