Description

A shiny yellowy red lump of brass. It is an alloy of copper lump and zinc lump. Lamp heads, brass oil lamps, and balls are the things you can currently smith, using brass.

Notes

  • The copper can be combined into one lump as only the amount required is used.
  • The zinc can also be combined, in which case all of it will be used (but not wasted, it will use more copper and produce more brass).
  • When creating, the quality of the zinc lump affects your success chance.
  • The quality of the copper lump is the maximum quality of the resulting brass lump.
  • If you fail creating, the zinc lump is destroyed and you create a copper scrap.

Old Behaviour

  • A working ratio is 1:1kg, 2:1kg, and even 1:2kg of copper to zinc.
  • The example ratios above will all result in a 0.20kg brass lump.
  • Warning: Do not combine lumps before creating brass. 1kg of copper + 1 kg of zinc give you 0.2 kg of brass, however 4kg of copper + 4kg of zinc only give you 0.4kg of brass. A 50% loss due to them being combined into larger lumps.
