Fueled Smelter [.19]

Description
I have updated this mod to 1.0, but am leaving this version available just in case and because that seems to be the done thing.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is a fueled version of the Electric Smelter that consumes large amounts of wood instead of large amounts of power.

It comes fully equiped with custom textures (a Frankenstein of the Smelter and Fueled Smithy...).
Requires Smithing research to construct.

This is my first ever RimWorld mod, so it is likely not perfect, and requires further balancing.
I searched for a while, and could not find a mod that adds a fueled Smeltery, if one exists, I would love a link!

Technically, but it might throw an error message, I'll look into updating it when I get the chance I have been busy with my jobs and uni right now.

@Waterkey , There is a B18 version. You can click the link at the beginning of the description and it should take you to it.

@Silt

Thanks, since posting the original for A18 I haven't changed anything since I hadn't really had any feedback.

I'll look into adding your suggestion as soon as I get the chance and re-familiarise myself with the way modding this game works. I haven't tried anything with it apart from changing the version number and following the steps the game gave me to fix an error it threw when I updated. Will post an update as soon as I get a chance.

The problem with electric smelters usually is, that you convert heat to power, and power back to heat. So producing the heat right on the spot should lower the energy loss, thus making it more efficient.
This mod seems to do the opposite. The Smelter requires 13.6 times more wood, than the wood-fired generator, but the electric smelter only uses 70% of the power from a single Generator.
If it burns that much wood, the heat it produces should be much higher aswell! (the Generator increases heat by 6 heat/sec. Your Smelter only by 0.36(the same as the electric smelter)) If you increase the heat proportional to the amount of wood burned, it would be 82 heat/sec (about as much as 4 heaters on full power)

I would either increase the power consuption for the electric smelter, or set the fuelConsumptionRate to about 14
