Smeltery


The Smeltery is where the Smelter will smelt ores into ingots.

Hint: The higher the level of the Smeltery, the more furnaces the Smelter will be able to use. A higher level will also have a higher chance to double and even triple the ingot output per block of ore. In 1.16, the Smelter's Strength level will sometimes determine the chance to double or triple the ingot output of ores, according to the Smeltery level. In 1.18+, the smelter applies Fortune to the ores they smelt instead. See the Smelter's page for how their strength affects the output.

The first tab of the GUI is the main interface.

    • Assigned Workers: Tells you the workers assigned to this building.
  • Controls:

    • Inventory: Here you can access the hut block's storage, where the worker at this hut takes and deposits materials. They will also use any racks that were placed in the hut when it was built or upgraded, so be sure to check those as well!
    • Chest Icon: Click this button to see all the items in the hut's storage (including the hut block's inventory and any racks that came with the hut). Clicking the ? button next to an item's count will highlight the storage container it's in.
Crafting recipes tab of the Smeltery it's GUI
The second tab of the GUI is the crafting recipes.

Here you can see all the crafting recipes this building knows.

The arrows allow you to move them up or down in priority. You are also able to disable specific recipes.

  • Teach Recipe: When clicking teach recipe, it opens a crafting grid which allows you to teach this hut crafting recipes (not the worker).
Fuel list tab of the Smeltery it's GUI
The third tab of the GUI is the fuel.

Listed here are items that can be used by the Smeltery as fuel in their furnaces.

Simply turn on any that you want your Smeltery to use, and a CourierCourierCourierCourierCourierCourierCourierCourierCourierCourierCourierCourier will deliver those items to the Smeltery when they need fuel. All items are off by default.

There are also two controls on the page:

  • The black box at the top is a search field.
  • Reset to default allows you to reset everything to off
Minimum stock tab of the Smeltery it's GUI
The fourth tab of the GUI is the minimum stock.

Ores tab of the Smeltery it's GUI
The fifth tab of the GUI is the ores.

Listed here are all ore blocks the Smeltery can smelt. Turn off any ores you do not want smelted. All coded ores (even if they come from other mods) are automatically added to this list. If you have ores that are not on the list, they can be added to the config file.

Each row contains a button to toggle the usage of this item on or off. By default this is on for all items.

There are also two controls on the page:

  • The black box at the top is a search field.
  • Reset to default allows you to reset everything to $on
