Smelt Ore By Product

Description
Just a simple mod that adds a new category to the Smelter, "Smelt ores by product." This allows you task orders to smelt any ore of a given metal in a single order, instead of having to select the specific ores.

One caveat, smelting copper ores will no longer have a chance of producing a small amount of silver. Smelting silver and lead ores still produce silver bars as usual.

Non-Steam users can find it on DFFD as "[50.xx] Smelt Ore By Product"!

-- Installation --

Subscribe here on the Workshop, or unpack into the DF mods folder if you're using the DFFD version, then enable the mod when generating a new world!

-- Compatibility --

This should be compatible with any mod that doesn't significantly change the vanilla metal ores.

If the "Smelt ores by product" category isn't showing up in the smelter, make sure Smelt Ore By Product is lower in the load order than any mods that remove-and-replace the MOUNTAIN entity, or just move SOBP to the bottom of the load order.

MOUNTAIN are the vanilla dwarf race; this mod only applies to them. The only things left that I can think of that would make it not appear are: using a mod to play another race, or the mod wasn't enabled when the world was generated.

Not sure what you mean by reactions to the MOUNTAIN entity, it is in the bottom though :O

@Lasse Oop, sorry for the late reply, didn't get a notification > <

As far as I can tell the mod is working fine; it does only add the reactions to the MOUNTAIN entity (ie. dwarves), however. It's possible that another mod might be overwriting its changes, so try loading SObP near the bottom of your mod order.

cant see this when smelting, do i have to setup something? or is this mod not for latest DF

Usually that happens if something added further down the load order replaces the MOUNTAIN entity; try moving SObP to the bottom of your load order.

any idea why this isnt showing up after enabling? it was working fine in my last world but gone in this new one...

Per the Dark Ages mod: "Any mods to Dwarves or Vanilla Entities will conflict with DA:5." It's likely their mod replaces the MOUNTAIN entity entirely. You can try moving SObP to the end of your load order but it depends on how they made their mod work.

why isn't compatible with dark ages?

The metal smith workshop wont accept any non vanilla (Iron, steel) anvil. So if you spwan in with a random one make sure you change it before you embark.

It only adds the new reactions to the default dwarf civilization (MOUNTAIN), so you'll need to patch it for other civs.
