So do the choices in the smelter cover all possibilities with the stone in a player's stockpiles? Or does stone anywhere on the map get included once it's mined? I dig out lots of yellow-symbol rock, which I think should be gold, but my smelter gives me no apparent ability to use it. Or its not gold... --DDouble 20:53, 9 November 2007 (EST)

Gold looks like this. Are you sure you found gold? Maybe it was orthoclase --VengefulDonut 21:16, 9 November 2007 (EST)

wood?

I'm going to have to check at home to be sure, but I believe that wood is completely off limits and the type of stone is also somewhat limited.

"Must have coal fuel"

I have a smelter surrounded by bituminous coal.

When I try to q - a - "anything" I get the message Must have coal fuel.

What gives?GarrieIrons 08:14, 8 January 2008 (EST)

Assuming that you have mined the bituminous coal, the problem is probably that you have no coke to start the first bituminous coal reaction. Since 1 bituminous coal + 1 coke = 3 coke, you still need 1 coke to start the reaction. The easiest way to do this is through burning wood at a furnace. --Kingzilla 17:45, 8 January 2008 (EST)
