      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

  1. Currently cinnabar is one of the non-realistic things of terrafirmacraft, basically is a excuse to add redstone in that (as dust of cinnabar). No, I don't suggest remove this, never. Redstone is important. I suggest add mercury, quicksilver or hydrargyrum(several names of the sameelement, Hg);reasoned by that cinnabar ismercury sulfide. Extraction of mercury or quicksilver: Although mercury is a liquid metal at room temperature, her ore, cinnabar, must be cooked at big temperature (at least, similar to lead fusion point) to be separated from sulphur. This metal would be extracted inceramicvessel and the crucible, the mainproblem is the storage. Mercury droplets may be would be stored in ceramic vessels. Obvious utility: almalgation and bigger extraction of gold-type metals. One of the first good uses of mercury was the almalgation and better extraction of metals like gold and silver. Others metals as copper, tin, lead, zincand platinum can be almalgated, but difficultly. So the first utility of this metal is the refining of ores to obtain more gold, copper, tin, zinc, leadand silver from these. This metal would be putin the crucible, after, when a ore is added to the mix, there is probabilities to obtain more metal than commonly or even extra metals. These are all the suggested cases: - Copper: 10% more copper, a 2,5~5% probability of obtain also a zinc,silver or gold unit. - Tin: 10% to 15% more tin. - Lead: 10% probability of obtain a tin unity, 2,5~5% probability of obtain a silver or gold unit. - Zinc: 5% probability of obtain a tin unit. In each smelt of ore, one ofthe used mercury unities has a probability of 15% of disappear, of evaporate. In the other hand, mercury could be mixed with gold, silver or copper to obtainmolded parts easily, ie, without use the crucible or ceramic vessel. Obviously, this does not work with iron and can not be used to obtain alloys. Thanks for read.
