The smeltery smelts stuff... slowly...

Is there a means to speed up the smelting process of my smeltery?



Best Answer

No, you cannot speed it up.

However, you can process more at the time by increasing the size of your smeltery, which is handy when you start automating it.

How do you automate smelting in tinkers construct?

To use the Smeltery, you must first add some lava to the Seared Tank, Seared Window, or Seared Glass (Either manually by right-clicking with a bucket of Lava or piping it in using Buildcraft compatible pipes). This will heat up the interior of the Smeltery to allow you to process materials.

Answer 2

If you put gasoline in your smeltery tank, it will instantly smelt everything down.

Answer 3

For the real, there are. At least on 1.12.2, I don't know about another versions, but you can use Pyrotheum. The smeltery temperature go from 1300 to 4000, similarity, your smelt speed will up almost 4x.

Answer 4

TConstruct's smelting system has two steps: melting and casting.

The melting step can be accelerated by using a fuel with higher temperature. Using ModTweaker, you can modify the temperature of a liquid, and register it as fuel:

val goldDef = <liquid:gold>.definition;
goldDef.temperature = 50300;
mods.tconstruct.Fuel.registerFuel(<liquid:gold>,10);

Casting time is defined in each casting recipe, and there is no uniform API to change that. However, since TConstruct is open source......

The logic behind casting is coded in the class TileCasting:

if(timer >= recipe.getTime()) {
  TinkerCastingEvent.OnCasted event = TinkerCastingEvent.OnCasted.fire(recipe, this);
  //And some other operations
}

Using Java bytecode editors such as Recaf, you can edit your TConstruct jar file to change the above code into

if(timer >= 1) //Or higher if this is too cheaty

This essentially makes all casting processes complete immediately.
