Great series! It's entertaining and fun to watch. Some notes: 1) Mature dead crops will harvest into double seeds. Poison compost (with raw meat) will kill crops immediately, or wait long enough til they die. Could also remove or add water if their hydration is sensitive. 2) Compost isn't the only nutrient source, but it's comprehensive. 3) You can use any tier hammer on any tier anvil. 4) The bloomery doesn't need sky access, only the forge does! 5) You may be able to rescue your vessel of unknown metal, if you can figure out where you went wrong with your alloy, and melt the right ores into the vessel from the forge. The ingot you make is lost. It's a rite of passage, everyone has done it. Ingots are poured from vessels in exactly the same ratio as what's in the vessel, so the math is possible to figure out what's left. Good luck and Happy TFC!
I really liked all your videos on Auto-TerraFirmaCraft! The way you explain the mechanics and organize the video and the description neatly is really nice. Reminds me a lot of the first time I started playing the TFC mod back in Minecraft 1.7.10, with all the rustic and complex way to do everything, alongside with the lots of exploration necessary to really progress in the game. It just feel like a completely new game. Also, if possible, I'd like to see a bit more of your off-screen progress, like your cave/surface exploring, mining for ores, planting and cutting trees. Doesn't have to be all of it, but just some bits and pieces to have a bit more of the feeling of the grind that is the game behind the scenes, like when you showed your progress from metalworking the bronze(copper) sheets. Please, keep the great work making all these videos, I'll be watching all of them!
Thanks for the kind word and feedback. I skip past some of the grinding bits because I've already shown them done in prior episode snd think that the audience wont enjoy watching them again. I don't want the episode to get too long. But you'd still rather see some that work? I can always montage it into a catch up?
@@darke-minecraft It's more of a selfish wish, since the part I like the most from games like Minecraft is the cave exploring and discovering new stuff. But you're right, not everyone likes watching the grind, and there is a LOT of grind in TFC. 😅
If you put empty ingot molds on the right side of the charcoal forge they will “catch” anything that melts. It’s a good insurance policy to always have when working on a bunch of things for when you inevitably get distracted. Also if you want to know what the movement increments are on the anvil for the various actions they are as follows: Punch. 2 units to the right. Bend. 7 units to the right. Upset: 13 units right. Shrink: 16 units right. Light Hit: 3 units to the left. Medium Hit: 6 units to the left. Heavy Hit: 9 units left. Draw: 15 units left.
As you said, you can get a feel for the smithing game without the numbers. As soon as you know them, the game seems to change. I think it becomes less fun, but that's my opinion. The position of the target is dependent on world seed, so there's not one recipe that always works for every world. There is a method that works every time, I call it the commutative property of smithing. To apply it, 1) get the green and red markers exactly lined up. 2) Make the moves that satisfy the smithing recipe. Call those moves A. 3) Get the markers to match again, call those moves B. 4) do B, then A.
I like the idea of feeling it out. I’ll give your technique a try. I think it’s roughly what I naturally started doing as I got better. Either way it’s a fun mechanic!
Thanks Steven. I figured as much, if you watch the next episode I converted these back into ingots and am already putting them to good use :) I love how this game allows mistakes to be rectified like this.

Wow. Amazing tips! This will help me a lot. Thanks.

Wow. Super helpful advice. Thanks! It’s a big learning curve for me :)

The copper double sheets can be melted with a vessel in one of the side slots to recover the copper

How did you get those saplings? Was it with your scythe?
Yup. Scythe gets you saplings faster. They drop naturally if you fell a tree, but the rates are way slower.
@darkejon I never got sapling naturally, I finally started scything the leaves today, and now I can replant the forest I have destroyed.
If you get to my automated the farm episode, I end up with so many from cutting down with mechanical saws that I have to throw them away.
