Forges Stay Warm

NBy Nebual

Forges retain their heat for awhile when not actively heating their contents.

Description

<p>Lowers forge fuel consumption when they're not heating anything, either because they're empty, or their contents are already at max forge temperature.</p> <p>This was inspired by <a href="https://mods.vintagestory.at/smithingplus">SmithingPlus</a> which requires heating up broken tool heads to repair them, which led to me wanting to partially heat multiple things in forges, and I wanted to simulate "keeping the Forge hot" being less fuel heavy than bringing cold metal all the way up to temperature.</p> <h3>Configuration</h3> <p>ForgeIdleFuelUsage = 10% - fuel rate (as a % of vanilla's) when empty/contents already max</p> <p>ForgeHeatingFuelUsage = 100% - fuel rate (defaults to vanilla's) when heating contents up - you might consider raising it above 100% to balance the idle benefit</p> <h3>Compatibility</h3> <p>Probably pretty widely compatible, it uses a precise patch of just the Forge fuel usage number, so unlikely to break unless Vintage updates its formula. I use it with <a href="https://mods.vintagestory.at/smithingplus">SmithingPlus</a> and <a href="https://mods.vintagestory.at/forgeselfignite">ForgeSelfIgnite</a>.</p> <div class="notranslate" style="all: initial;">&nbsp;</div>
