Steel making/fr: Difference between revisions

Refactory blocks are important for the steel making process as no other currently available block can withstand the extreme heat necessary to produce {{ll|steel|steel}}. Refractory blocks come in three different tiers, all of which can be used to make the cementation furnace. All refractory brick blocks have a chance to receive damage per use of the cementation furnace smelting process, however, using higher tier blocks will reduce the amount that receive damage per use. Tier 1 has a heat resistance of 90% (1 in 10 chance to break), tier 2 95% (1 in 20 chance to break), and tier 3 99% (1 in 100 chance to break). (Tier 3 may actually have a heat resistance of 99.9% and thus a 1 in 1000 chance to break. This information needs verification.)

After the carburation process is 100% completed, damaged refractory brick blocks can be broken to return some of their materials back, similar to a broken bloomery. Grate blocks do not get damaged at the moment, which means there is no sense in making them out of higher tier bricks. In addition, not all of the blocks on the cementation furnace building need to be of the same tier, allowing for use of refactory blocks of a different tier when replacing damaged ones.
