Current craftable plates available in the game

Creation

Metal plates can be made crafted with two ingots on an anvil. Plates can be made manually, however it is far less strenuous to use a helve hammer instead.

Plates can be made of any metal, except nickel and cupronickel.

Usage

Metal plates have a variety of usage depending on the metal they were made from. Almost all can be used for making lanterns. Copper, bronze, iron and steel plates can be used to make brigandine and plate armor. Metal plates themselves can also be smithed into metal chains or metal scales directly. Some other smithing recipes can also use plates instead of ingots as the base ingredient, however most of these will result in a huge loss of invested metal in comparison while making the process only slightly easier.

Copper plate is required for making the hopper, the distillery and copper roofing blocks, while silver and gold plate can be used in lanterns to increase their light level.

Metal plates can be "converted" into metal bits of the same metal type with the use of a chisel.

Storage

Metal plates can be placed on the ground, stacking up to 16 per block. They can be placed in storage containers as well.
