Cobalt/Ardite costs #37

Open Xariyl opened 9 years ago

Xariyl commented 9 years ago

Copying here so I can track it. Mentioned in comments on the initial PR:

I think the cost is too cheap Make it a block of coal/charcoal Pour over it 10-20 ingots of nickel and it turns into the ore block Same for sulfur -- @Ryuben

I was trying to make it somewhat realistic :) Plus using the dusts I thought was a neat gimmick, I'd not seen reagents used on the table before and I wasn't sure it could be done. But it may need some cost adjustment

Couple of ideas I had regarding this.

I like the nugget idea but remember its really hard to automate the smeltery On 6 Apr 2015 04:25, "Xariyl" notifications@github.com wrote:

Couple of ideas I had regarding this.

  • Charcoal / Sulfur dust on a table, full ingot of Nickel, but the resulting Ardite/Cobalt dust is the equivalent of a nugget. (due to the removal of impurities, of course!)
  • Block of Coal (Coke?) in a basin, full (1 or 2?) Block(s) of Nickel or Copper poured over it, resulting in Cobalt/Ardite. (suggested by Ryuben)
    • using either of these, a high delay in a TiC Smeltery can add to the cost.
    • either of these could be made to work in a Fluid Transposer as well. A high RF can add to the cost.
    • Some alloy mix of Copper and Nickel, and maybe liquified Coal. Undecided on amounts to use. For reference, 5 Aluminum + 2 Iron + 2 Obsidian = 5 Alumite.

Should be :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

The smeltery should be a challenge :D

Cobalt Nugget on output, or to Cobalt Dust and then in a furnace for nugget? or Blast Furnace! :smiling_imp:

AlexTheGre4t commented 9 years ago

Blast furnace sounds neat with the dust. I very like your 3rd suggestion by ryuben.
