Wiki | Permissions & Commands | Usage | GitHub Source
The Dwarfs learned long ago how to manipulate lava to their will. By building their furnaces directly above lava, they can smelt metals and bake goods for a long time without hauling buckets about. Now, you can too. Build your furnace directly above a lava block, then punch the furnace to ignite it. Punch it again to douse the flames. No fuel/buckets needed!
There is a minimal configuration file; the plugin will automatically generate a default config.yml file if none is present. Just drop the JAR into your plugins folder and reload.

Features |
---|
- Runs forever! No fuel/buckets needed.
- However, Forges can be required to operate with fuel, which is pulled from the input chest along with raw materials.
- Punching the furnace toggles it on/off.
- Dwarf Forges stack vertically. Lava only necessary under the lowest forge. (Lava is powerful, man!) Stacked forges can all access the same set of input/output chests.
- Input and output chests (left and right of forge, respectively, when facing it) supported. Double-size chests also supported. Additionally, you can "stack" horizontally to access nearby chests.
- Stacking limits are configurable (defaults: 3 high, 4 wide).
- Can change the cooking time: warp speed!
- Blocks in a short, 3-block radius from any Dwarf Forge are protected against fire from lava.
- Supports Permissions.
- Supports Metrics

No, but I thought the point was that the lava powers the furnace? That's what the config was set to, as far as I remember anyway.
The plugin complains (warning) in console that it’s not up to date, even though it’s internal version says 2.5 and it says the next one up is 2.4 :P
2012-04-16 21:50:53 [WARNING] [DwarfForge] Config is not up to date!
2012-04-16 21:50:53 [WARNING] [DwarfForge] Config File Version: 2.4

2012-04-16 21:50:53 [WARNING] [DwarfForge] It is suggested to update the config.yml!
@MedlarGW
Did you add fuel into the chest with the thing you want to craft?
@DonRedhorse
Well I placed the furnace over still lava, put steak in the furnace and nothing happened... I kept the config as default, but looked over it in case anything looked like it might be conflicting with what I was doing. Just didn't work. Perhaps some of my other plugins were causing a problem? I use PhysicalShop (Sign shops), MagicBookshelf, Appleseed and DisguiseCraft.
@MedlarGW
IIRC I had it running on 1.2.4. R1, now my server is 1.2.5. R1 and it works... I think.. what doesn't work?
@DonRedhorse
I've tested it. Doesn't work on 1.2.4 R1, but it doesn't cause crashes or anything. Awesome plugin either way, I'll be updating soon hopefully. :D
@MedlarGW
it works with 1.2.5... the filesection is quite restricted... I can't say 1.2.4 - 1.2.5 etc..
@ntscape
what do you mean with that?
@whousthat
not for bukkit... I will not do anything new for bukkit I will only keep it alive... sorry...
I'm confused, listed in the forum post says DwarfForge is ready for 1.2.5 R1, but here it says 1.2.4 R1. Should I assume it's ready for 1.2.4 only?
Definitely not complaining, because I'm running 1.2.4 and have kept my eye on this plugin for a month or so. Really excited that you updated it, thank you. :D
Please add auto off features!
I love Dwarf Forge, one thing that would be nice to have is the ability to toggle the forges on/off with a lever and redstone. Would be particularly useful for those running lots of big forges.
Just an idea to add to the "nice to have" list :)
Thanks, Whousthat
@Lipe Oh, well, then nevermind.
@ThePartyGuest Its working fine ON 1.2.5 OBVIOUSLEY, why does it need a update?
If you aren't already, and when you have the time, could you please update it to 1.2.5? Thanks so much. This plugin is very useful!
@LeChuuck
no, I would need to recode the plugin for that, keeping track of all chests placed, checking if there was stuff added etc.. I don't know if there is even an event for this.
and I'm only keeping the plugin updated... sorry.
@fragmatiklv
glad you figured it out..
Is it possible to have the furnace working all the time?, what i mean is when the chest is empty of materials and you put in some new materials in the chest. Then you need to switch the furnace off and on to start the procedure again.
ah. fuel solve my problem =) btw nice idea with additional fuel
ty for your plugin
hi. im downloading your plugin. think its good. but i have big server and i think im going to have about 100 dwarf furnaces working whole day =)
so maybe u can make this - if dwarf furnaces is working without material some amount of time, then lava under them - dissapeared and they automaticly switch off
sorry for my english
updated, also added new option to allow flowing lava back as material beneath forges, that fixes some of the issues we have seen, but allows to circumvent the build permission.
How about you guys just read the post right blow your "zomg update plox!!!" posts?
There is a working version for 1.2.4 just read!
Any news on an update for 1.2.4?
