![]() ![]() The next fuel source is coke, made from two types of depository coal: lignite and bituminous coal. Note that (although by the name and method of production there does not seem to be a difference), ash is distinct from charcoal and cannot be used as fuel. Using charcoal as your main fuel source requires a lot of effort, and a heavily forested environment, as you will have to chop down many, many trees and potentially keep multiple burners on repeat to keep your metalworkers supplied, at least until you get down to magma. Charcoal can be used to jump start the process, but if your location is lacking in the other fuel sources, you will have to use charcoal exclusively (and whatever the caravans can bring in). ![]() It may be necessary to produce a couple of bars of charcoal at the very least, as creating fuel from the other, mineral sources of fuel requires fuel itself. The simplest is charcoal, made from wood logs at a wood furnace by a wood burner (note: not furnace operator). There are currently three types of fuel in Dwarf Fortress: With the exception of studding, all metalworking requires a unit of fuel (or more, if it is part of the reaction itself). The metal industry consists of two parts: the ores from which the metals are made, and the fuel which powers the making. Constructing stone furniture out of metal ores typically results in a roughly 25% loss in total value, compared to refining the ore. This does not apply to furniture that cannot be made of stone, such as bins and obviously you cannot make furniture from alloys in this way, since alloys only exist in the form of metal bars or forged items.
