About JR Metals
From Factorio Mod PortalAlternative way of handling copper, iron and crafting steel. As a bonus mod gives you molten form of plastic and sulfur for alternative storage/transport.
Alternative way of handling copper and iron and crafting steel. Mod adds special electric melting furnace and molten form of copper, iron, steel. One copper/iron ore going through the process should result in 2 plates (plates are crafted in standard assembler mk2). Steel is made by melting 5 iron plates to molten steel and crafting it in assembler mk2 (results in 2 steel plates). As a bonus mod gives you molten form of plastic and sulfur for alternative storage/transport.
Mod uses vanilla electric furnace graphic for the smelter atm. It shouldn't cause any incompatibilities. NOT tested in MP. Any suggestions welcome. Have fun!
