The Charcoal Pile Igniter is a method of producing charcoal faster than a coke oven, but without the ease of automation and creosote that a coke oven provides. It does require pig iron and steel to craft, and so is gated behind a basic steam setup as well as a bricked blast furnace
Construction and Usage
The charcoal pit multiblock consists of a square floor of bricks, from 3x3 to 11x11. Above the bricks, place up to 5 layers of logs you wish to turn into charcoal, then place the charcoal pile igniter on top of the center of your log pile. Cover any faces of the logs with dirt or grass and then activate the charcoal pile igniter. If the top of the igniter begins to emit smoke, the process has started.
Once the smoke has stopped, you are free to remove the dirt and dig up the blocks that have replaced your logs - these will drop charcoal.
