RC-Furnaces and the Smelter RC-Skill replace the old God Furnace system with a deeper, scalable upgrade path built around XP, unlocks, and automation. Use `/smelterskill` to get started and claim your first free RC-Furnace. RC-Furnaces level up as you use them. Smelt materials to gain Furnace XP and unlock new lanes, abilities, and fuel upgrades. Each furnace becomes more powerful over time, allowing for faster and more automated production. Furnaces can also drop Player XP orbs that allow you to repair your mending tools. *** ## ⛏️ Multi-Lane Smelting Each furnace supports multiple smelting lanes for parallel processing. * πŸ”Ή Level 1 β€” 1 Lane * πŸ”Ή Level 5 β€” 2 Lanes * πŸ”Ή Level 10 β€” 3 Lanes At max level, your furnace can run up to **3 simultaneous smelting operations**. You can also choose how many lanes are active directly through the furnace UI. *** ## βš™οΈ Furnace Abilities All abilities can be toggled on or off at any time. ### ➑️ Side Loading (Level 1) Allows hoppers placed on the sides of the furnace to automatically insert items into input slots. *** ### ✨ Lucky Smelt (Level 2) Smelting certain materials has a chance to trigger rare legendary PokΓ©mon encounters: * 🟠 Copper β†’ Magearna * πŸͺ™ Iron β†’ Meltan * 🟑 Gold β†’ Zeraora * πŸͺ¨ Cobblestone / Cobbled Deepslate β†’ Regirock * 🏝️ Sand β†’ Landorus * πŸŸ₯ Netherrack β†’ Heatran * πŸͺ΅ Logs β†’ Celebi *** ### πŸ“¦ Double Output (Level 3) Grants a chance to duplicate smelted items, increasing total yield over time. *** ### β›½ Efficiency (Level 5) Reduces fuel point consumption by **25%**, improving long-term furnace sustainability. *** ### ⚑ Speed (Level 7) Doubles overall smelting speed for all furnace operations. *** ## πŸ”₯ Fuel Point System Furnaces no longer consume fuel in the traditional way. Instead, fuel sources are converted into **Fuel Points**, which are stored and consumed as needed. * Higher furnace levels increase total Fuel Point capacity * Allows for longer, uninterrupted smelting sessions *** ## πŸ“ˆ Furnace XP Furnaces gain XP based on the materials you smelt: * πŸͺ¨ Cobblestone / Cobbled Deepslate β†’ 1 XP * πŸŸ₯ Netherrack β†’ 1 XP * πŸͺ΅ Logs β†’ 1 XP * 🏜️ Sand β†’ 1 XP * 🟠 Copper β†’ 1 XP * πŸͺ™ Iron β†’ 5 XP * 🟑 Gold β†’ 10 XP Higher-value materials accelerate progression significantly. *** ## πŸ“Š Furnace Level Scaling / Progression | Level | Items Per Second | Lanes | | ----- | -------------------------------- | ----- | | 1 | 2 Items per lane every 8 seconds | 1 | | 2 | 3 Items per lane every 6 seconds | 1 | | 3 | 4 Items per lane every 4 seconds | 1 | | 4 | 5 Items per lane every 2 seconds | 1 | | 5 | 6 Items per lane every second | 2 | | 6 | 7 Items per lane every second | 2 | | 7 | 8 Items per lane every second | 2 | | 8 | 9 Items per lane every second | 2 | | 9 | 10 Items per lane every second | 2 | | 10 | 16 Items per lane every second | 3 | ## πŸ“ˆ XP Required Per Level: * 1 β†’ 2: 20,000 * 2 β†’ 3: 50,000 * 3 β†’ 4: 200,000 * 4 β†’ 5: 500,000 * 5 β†’ 6: 1,050,000 * 6 β†’ 7: 2,250,000 * 7 β†’ 8: 3,050,000 * 8 β†’ 9: 5,000,000 * 9 β†’ 10: 7,880,000 *** ## πŸ”“ Additional Furnace Unlocks Expand your smelting setup by leveling the Smelter RC-Skill: * πŸ† Level 50 β€” +1 Additional RC-Furnace * πŸ† Level 75 β€” +1 Additional RC-Furnace Build your own multi-furnace smelting empire as you progress.
