Heya *waves*
Since today I'm playing around with the modpack, too.
Though two little things I need to ask:
Since I updated to the 1.1.4 Version the temperature, water and sanity bar all are in the upper left now, unreadable since they all take the same spot. Is that a problem cause I started the world with 1.1.3?
And more important... I need a little help with getting started in smeltery. I know the concept of using the crucible as mini-smeltery, though my big problem is: I need an ingot-cast to make ingots, but for making an ingot-cast I first need 1 ingot... which bings me to the point that I don't know how to get past this. Do I have to find an ingot somewhere in the world or is there something made to get past it which I not saw yet/probably oversaw?
(I tried using the flaxbeard-crucible/mold too, but had to notice then, that you cannot put ore into it)
You can configure the bars (sanity, temp, water) in the Enviromine settings. Hit ESC and you will see the button to config. As for the ingot cast, I think there are a few ways to do it. I believe you can just make the cast with a vanilla brick from clay. You can also use the flaxbeard's steampower crucible and mold to make ingots. I am not sure if they worked to make a cast or not.
