Forges Stay Warm

NBy Nebual

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

Description

Lowers forge fuel consumption when they're not heating anything, either because they're empty, or their contents are already at max forge temperature.

This was inspired by SmithingPlus 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.

Configuration

ForgeIdleFuelUsage = 10% - fuel rate (as a % of vanilla's) when empty/contents already max

ForgeHeatingFuelUsage = 100% - fuel rate (defaults to vanilla's) when heating contents up - you might consider raising it above 100% to balance the idle benefit

Compatibility

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 SmithingPlus and ForgeSelfIgnite.
