|It is recommended to try putting down the coffin before even planning where the furnace will go, as it can only be build in the direction the overlay shows. The direction pointed out by the coffin will be consistent in the whole world, but can differ between worlds. Unfortunately, it cannot be changed, and a furnace build in any other direction then the one given by the overlay will not function. | |||

The player should allocate at least a 5x5 space for the furnace, and additional space to reach the back or side of the furnace to input coal or coke. The furnace structure is 6 blocks high, but an additional layer below the grate blocks is required. The chimney on top of the structure does not have to be open to the sky at the moment, but if it is blocked there will be no smoke indications shown while the furnace is running. Keep in mind that the furnace is, for now, always build with the door side facing in one specific direction, even if the whole structure is already finished and the coffin is added as the last element, the building overlay will still demand to build the structure with a specific orientation, regardless of how the player build it already. The orientation seems to be different from world to world - further testing or code diving needed. | The player should allocate at least a 5x5 space for the furnace, and additional space to reach the back or side of the furnace to input coal or coke.
