About Smelting Buddy

From Steam Workshop

Features 100% automation of your smelting operation! Select ingot, choose amount > press start Batch smelting operation! Select which ingots and amounts you need and the script will go through each…

Features

  • 100% automation of your smelting operation! Select ingot, choose amount > press start
  • Batch smelting operation! Select which ingots and amounts you need and the script will go through each of it without any need for assist
  • Vent automation to keep autoignition away from your stuff
  • Included are the obvious status text additions like temperature and pressure
  • Easy setup through dropdowns in the settings (you can also choose your gas mixture)
  • NO code changes necessary

How to use

Just take a quick look at the video. It shows you everything you need to know including a showcase of the batch smelting operation. You can also use it together with the Crafting Buddy. If you have issues with lags / smelting process seems off as wrong ore count is requested or wrong kind of ingot gets spit out use options to use vending machines as storage instead of silos and maybe also use the Eject delay option

Setup

  • Disable Code limits in the IC10 Editor Mod settings
  • If the code doesn't load in game it may be due to steam workshop. You can check the lines in the code / it should be 3960~ lines of code. If Steam workshop doesn't give you the full code you can get it on my GitHub: Smelting Buddy

Blueprint

If you like to test the setup out, I made a barebone blueprint where you can test it without integrating it to your base. You can find it here: Smelting Buddy - Test Area Make sure to update the script to the latest version as the script in that Blueprint is out of date
