Malfiros Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 So I was panning some bony soil and dredged up a tin bronze lamellae. In the description it reads it smelts into 1x tin bronze ingot. It wouldn’t go into a crucible, forge, or even onto the anvil. I ended up trying the chisel, but it only recovered tin bronze bits totaling 50 units (half an ingot). I didn’t try building bloomery, maybe that’s how you smelt lamellae into ingots? Any direction would be appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Omega Haxors Posted September 22, 2021 Solution Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 (edited) Huh seems that the chisel recipe for lamellae gives half as much bits as it should. That's probably a bug. EDIT: Yeah it is. Scales are supposed to be the ones that give half material. The clear solution here is to make lamellae cost half as much to make in the casting process, maybe then people would actually use it.

Silent Shadow Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 The benefit of lamellar armor is that you can quickly make it. All of the other metal armors have to be forged whereas you can cast all the metal pieces in one go, assuming you have the molds. Also more fuel efficient as the ore is only heated once.

Nii P. Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 So then, how to do it, and "SMELT into 1x tin bronze ingot"? I still don't get it, as a chisel can't smelt anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Streetwind Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 The need to break down finished metal products into chunks to re-smelt them is new in version 1.15. Previously, you could just chuck the thing into the crucible as is. So each item displays how many bars it smelts into, because that info used to be useful in older versions. It was not removed in 1.15. Either it was overlooked, or left intentionally so people could still tell what they would get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Shadow Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 Smelt nuggets as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
