I am having a problem with one of my Smelter Reactions. I am tired of embarking on a map with no iron so I wanted to make a reaction that takes 2 pieces of copper and turns it into 1 iron bar. I have this in the  " reaction_smelter" document. But nothing comes up on my smelter when I regen the world. Does anyone one know that the problem is or know a better way this can be done?

~Thanks

Your reagents are incomplete

METAL_ORE:COPPER??:NONE:NONE

or

METAL_ORE:NONE:INORGANIC:COPPER??

normally I just place REACTION_CLASSES on things and use that

No. His reagents are right. What he did is perfectly valid: METAL_ORE is a valid item and COPPER refers to what kind of metal you can get out of the ore.

Specifically, he's using the old (but still valid) syntax for requesting metal ores - the new syntax (which Toady himself doesn't seem to be using yet) is [REAGENT:A:1:BOULDER:NONE:NONE:NONE][METAL_ORE:COPPER].
