== Description ==
''A large kiln-like structure made from logs covered in dirt. The purpose is to turn the logs into tar and charcoal.''
A '''Charcoal charcoal pile''' is a large [[coal-making]] structure made from [[log]]s and [[pile of dirt|dirt]] and lit up with a [[kindling]]. When it burnslit, it slowly creates produces [[charcoal]], [[tar]] , and [[ash]]. They are mainly used to create charcoal in order to make [[steel lump]]s. == Creation ==
== Creating ==* The [[quality]] of the [[kindling ]] affects the chance of creating a charcoal pile.* The maximum quality of a coal charcoal pile is limited by the average quality of the raw materials. * The [[coal-making]] skill however affects how much each added ingredient actually adds contributes to the piles pile's quality.* It A charcoal pile uses 1 [[kindling ]] and 1 [[log ]] to create. Using combined kindling will use the entire combined amount.* Piles Charcoal piles cannot be created or continued inside a [[House (general)|house]].* The last [[log]] added determines the wood type of the pile.
== Usage ==
* After finishing the pile, light it with your [[steel and flint]] and a kindling in your inventory.
* Once lit the pile will produce charcoal, tar and ash of the initial quality of the pile whenever a decay tick increases its damage. The pile products can be removed at any time without harm to further production.
* The pile will burn for one to six real life days until it reaches 100 damage. At this time the pile will disappear and all remaining products will form an item pile on the ground.
* The higher the quality, the longer the pile will burn and the more products it will produce:
Battlepants* After finishing the pile, light it with [[steel and flint]] while carrying [[kindling]].* Once lit, the pile produces [[charcoal]], [[tar]], and [[ash]] based on the initial quality of the pile.* Production occurs whenever a decay tick increases the pile' test s damage.* Produced materials can be removed at any time without harming further production.* A charcoal pile will burn for one to six real-life days until it reaches 100 damage.* When the approximation of pile quality reaches 100 damage, it disappears and number of produceall remaining products form an item pile on the ground. * 29Higher quality piles produce higher quality items and burn longer, producing more items.75ql birchpile produced 17 charcoals * 56Light charcoal piles as soon as possible. Unlit piles will quickly start to take "invisible" damage until lit, at which point the damage becomes visible.58ql birchpile produced 30 charcoals * 46Products are produced with the effective quality of the pile at the time of lighting.01ql walnutpile produced 25 charcoals Battlepants' test for the approximation of pile quality and number of produce:

== Notes ==
* A single [[charcoal]], [[ash]], and [[tar ]] is produced at each decay tick.
* Wood type affects production:
** Cedarwood piles burn slower due to their decay tick mechanic, but produce the same amount as a non -special wood typetypes.** Oakenwood piles produce more charcoal as materials because they take less decay per tick and thus therefore have more ticks.** Walnut Piles piles give a 10% bonus on to the quality of the items it producesthey produce.
** Other wood types have no effect on burn time or charcoal production.
* The last log added determines the wood type of the pileMaking 20 piles from discovery without sleep bonus will give around 24 coal-making skill. So you could add 20 pine logs* Per testing, but have decay of items produced by the final one added be an oak log, and you would get an oak charcoal pile.* Ash decays fast, even will start in approximately 2 to 3 days if left inside the active, producing pile as it burns.* Making 31 piles from discovery without sleep bonus will net around 24 CoalRemoving produced items and placing them back inside may remove this decay-making Skillfree period.* It is possible to get create a [[Rare item|rarity drumroll]] while continuing a [[rare charcoal pile.* A rare charcoal pile]] which will burn slightly longer and can randomly produce a random number of rare [[charcoal]], rare [[ash]] , and rare [[tar]].* All charcoal piles fully occupy one tile.* Despite wood type, all charcoal piles visually appear the same.
