    The most obvious way is to toggle the power, as it will not accrue heat while unpowered.

    The steel is produced at an average 2.4:1 ratio, so it is more efficient than the Blast Furnace.

    Recently I started playing with RotaryCraft, and it soon became my favorite tech mod. The power system is really fun to play with, and the machines are useful.


    However I ran into a problem. According to the handbook, the Pulse Jet Furnace makes steel more efficiently than a normal furnace. After some searching I found mentions (comment #4205 of this thread, by Reika) of a 2.4:1 steel to iron ratio in the Pulse Jet Furnace, but when I try to run one it's always 1:1 ratio. I'm using Forge 1291 and version V5c, the Pulse Jet Furnace is around temperature 960C, and is smelting iron ingots.


    Also, during the search I found SentinalhMC's RC tutorial on the Pulse Jet Furnace, which is also making steel at a 1:1 ratio. In his video he couldn't smelt a HSLA steel sword, which I can't smelt either.


    Was this an intentional change, or did I make some mistake somewhere?

    I'm wondering why I cannot make steel in a Pulse Jet Furnace more efficiently than in a Blast Furnace, since the former only produces steel at a one to one ratio while the latter produces bonus steel. I am aware the Pulse Jet Furnace is faster, but there are sources (though they may be out-dated) suggesting that the Pulse Jet Furnace should produce more steel per ingot. I am not making the mistake of not heating the Pulse Jet to >900C, and I am using the latest versions of RotaryCraft and DragonAPI.


    The other problem is that HSLA steel swords cannot be smelted in a Pulse Jet Furnace, which is supposedly fixed a long time ago. But according to in-game testing and the GitHub source code (Auxiliary/RecipeManagers/RecipesPulseFurnace.java), there is no recipe for that.
