Latest release (for outdated Vintage Story v1.20.x):
forgeselfignite_v0.2.0.zip  1-click install


A simple patch to make forges self ignite if fuel is added and the content is still warm enough (500°C - configurable).

From v0.2.0 it is only needed server side and does nothing on the client. Fixes flickering when fuel gets ignited.

It did not seem to work for me either when I did a few iron blooms today. Afaik the only related mods are Smithing Plus and Forges Stay Warm, but the latter is supposed to work with the former and this one. But maybe I'm not thinking about some other mod at the moment as my modlist is pretty long...

Edit: Tried again today and now it worked somehow? Not sure what's up.

Edit: Again... I think the issue is that the forge immediately cools off rapidly when it is out, giving you maybe a second to react.

InertFurry Just verified in 1.20.4 and it seems to still be working. Do you have any other mods that might involve the forge?

This stopped working on 1.20.4, it appears? 1100 degree blooms not igniting with charcoal added.

Verified for the current 1.20. Relevant code hasn't changed.

Done! Thank you, dashr!

Verified - working in 1.19.8 please update the "For Game version" Tab, so people can see it for 1.19. Thank you!

💬 Quaan , Jun 3rd 2023 at 12:26 PM

Verified also for 1.18.5

Doesn't seem to work on 1.18.X. Would be great to have an update or the source available!

EDIT: Well, how dense am I. Not only is the source available right there but this mod also still works perfectly as of 1.18.3.

Looks like you "sometimes"™ need to re-place your forge after installing the mod for it to work at all. If you can't interact with it, just re-place it.
