Steel making timeout and reset is unacceptable!

[vatas]

Update: my village smith needs 1 more steel bar to finish current Credo quest, my steel reset after almost 2 days into the process because I forgot to babysit it.

I have lost a set of 56 steelboxes with pretty decent wrought in them, I feel for you, but nothin else to do but get refining it again. No time like the present!

One time the server we were running the still bot on crashed and nobody noticed. Now that this shit affects me I think it's time to fix it.

At the very least. Make it lose half the progress or something. Or 10% per hour ~etc similar to taming

Second bar like in fireplace, lasts 12 hours during which "no progress, but no reset either?"

Steel timer reset once this world for me. I refilled steel crucibles at 6 am, then went to work. The day at work was really tough so after work I fall asleep and missed 12h refill timer. Steel was at +- 75%. Not the best experience

Had them go out just now, we stupidly trusted Wiki https://ringofbrodgar.com/wiki/Steel_Crucible.
Yes, stupid mistake trusting wiki, but it quoted the gods in stacks of stacks update.

"Fixed the old fuel bug and removed the work-around for it. Ovens/smelters/&c. no longer reset their progress when burning out, rather each item therein tracks the average fuel quality it has seen while burning, and uses that upon completion."

&c apparently excludes the Steelbox THANKS MATE


Also, I fully agree, steel really needs a rework, currently it is one of the things that are supposed to be hard, but its only hard for people who don't use bots. And due to the latter, they indeed lose value at an insane pace, you can now buy it for cheaper than low Q cave clay.

Yes, it should be hard to make, so add flux stone, add stirring/remove slag minigames, let us select pictures showing a fire hydrant, I don't care.
But would be great if the game finally stops exclusively punishing people playing as intended.

just let us load shitton of coal and let it burn for those absurd 56h...
