Tips[edit | edit source]
- Solid Steel is the most efficient recipe, due to conserving Coal which is the rarer component, and allowing for the incorporation with a ratio of Iron Ore to ingot greater than 1:1.
- Steel is better than iron for most purposes but iron is better for making Iron Plates, and can also be made into Wire, while steel cannot.
