Fuel indicator on crucible
Would it be possible to get a fuel level indicator on the alloying crucible? Just a simple popup like the fireplace with the fuel gauge.

Re: Fuel indicator on crucible
Why? Is it important? Do you ever keep it burning for any meaningful amount of time?

Jorb doesnt realize this when designing stuff. He says that cows eat just fine amount because he can have 2 of them. But what about medium/big villages that need like dozen cows and have only 1-2 farmers. Its hell of a job for themmaking cupbaords of curios for town/citys.

Relighting when it goes out mid crafting is no fun.

i think this issue will solve itself as people start discovering it would be more ideal to live in large towns.

To both, yes.
When I mess with a crucible to mass-produce any item, I have to bulk it with coal.

Re: Fuel indicator on crucible
My problem isn't so much it's fuel indicator, but that the fuel lasts a ridiculously short period of time.
