/smelt

[dusky canyon]

Currently, smelting items in a furnace can be quite slow, especially when dealing with large quantities. I propose adding a /smelt command to speed up the process while keeping the fuel cost balanced.

How It Works:

• The /smelt command instantly smelts the item in the main hand.
• Fuel is consumed from the off-hand.
• The amount of fuel required matches the furnace cost (e.g., 1 coal for 8 items, 1 log for 1.5 items, etc.).
• If the player doesn't have enough fuel, the command fails with an error message.

Restrictions to Prevent Abuse:

• Only works for items that can be smelted in a furnace.
• Won't work if the off-hand is empty or doesn't contain valid fuel.
• Could be permission-based or have a cooldown to prevent spamming.
  This would provide a convenient alternative to furnaces without making smelting free or too easy.

That feels very cheaty to me.

Yk I kinda like this but I think that the server is trying to be as vanilla as possible so it probably wouldn't be added. Also kinda agree with bl4ck

[molten wadi]

Correct

[compact copper]

Blast furnaces and smokers are designed to smelt/cook faster than just furnaces. Anything else isn’t vanilla anymore

[marsh storm]

For sand and stuff they need to add a block of to do it faster

[compact copper]

What?

[molten wadi]

Quick means that there should be another furnace-like block in vanilla that will smelt items faster, which don't go into either a blast furnace or smoker.

Ahh agreed. They need a… sand…smelter

Not the most creative name

[marsh storm]

It should also do cactus and sea pickles

And stone

The random stuff that isn't food or ore

Mainly stone and glass

Both are rocks so the crucible? Forge?
