MetalSmith fuel question
« on: June 12, 2013, 12:47:41 pm »
At my Wood Furnace I have Charcoal as an order yet none of my dwarves will do it. I have highlighted it then hit P and enabled all of them to use it yet no dwarves will build with it.

Sorry for all my questions I have not mastered this game yet (is it possible to master?)

You need a dwarf with the wood burning labor enabled to create charcoal. The Smelter skill only affects the smelter workshop, while wood burner uses the wood furnace. You also need logs available to be burnt into charcoal.

Woodburning is under "Farming Related" skill set.
