So where do I get all the stuff I need?

Good question! You can gain plenty of materials for your smeltery needs by asking the Miners for them, since their job is entirely about digging them up from rock. If there aren't any miners, don't worry. There's still plenty of materials that can be obtained through other means.

Classification

Description
|
| Steel
|
|
Sturdy Metal
|
The processed equivalent of mauxite, made with char and mauxite.
|
| Electrum
|
|
Metal, High Energy Conductor
|
A gold-cobryl alloy excellent at conducting electricity.
|
| Soulsteel
|
|
Metal, Power Source
|
Steel alloyed with Discount Dan's secret ingredient: human souls! Or at least, a more malleable form of them in form of ectoplasm ran through the material processor. Objects made from soulsteel, as well as alloys of it (so long as the soulsteel isn't too "diluted") can be piloted by Ghosts.
|
| Plasmasteel
|
|
Metal, Dense Metal
|
Steel combined with plasmastone, dramatically raising its density.
|
| Dyneema
|
|
Cloth/Fabric
|
A futuristic spidersilk-carbonfiber polymer that offers dramatic protection from melee and ranged attacks.

Description
|
| Starstone
|
|
Extraordinarily Dense Crystalline Matter
|
Extremely valuable, but can only be found in certain highly-dangerous Z5 asteroids, extremely rare starstone asteroids located by the quantum telescope, and the remains of meteor showers. Sell them to certain merchants to become an instant millionaire! Can also be used to infuse chemicals into metals and alloys.
|
| Slag
|
 
|
Metal, Sturdy Metal
|
By-product of smelting and a low-quality substitute for mauxite.
|
| Glass
|
|
Crystal
|
The processed equivalent of molitz.

Description
|
| Gnesis/Translucent Gnesis
|
 / 
|
Dense Metal, Crystal, High Energy Conductor, Reflective Material
|
Flockmind metal. As good a conductor as electrum, with a neat teal color too. Can be, obviously, obtained from smashing converted tiles, as well as somewhere in deep space.
|
| Iridium-Alloy
|
|
Metal, Dense Metal, Sturdy Metal
|
The Syndicate's pride and joy. Ridiculously strong (80 hardness and density); can be dropped from Nanite swarms in their respective asteroids, and a certain secret source.
|
| Carbon Nanofiber
|
|
Conductor, Cloth/Fabric
|
Jack of all stats, and nearly a master of all. Not only is it super dense and super hard, yet surprisingly permeable, but it's also excellent at conducting electricity and heat alike. Sec's armor vests can be reprocessed into these, and they can be found in nanite clusters, super-rare Quantum Telescope "asteroids" that house huge swarms of angry nanobots.
|
| Ectofiber
|
TBA
|
Conductor, Power Source, Cloth/Fabric
|
Ghost hair. A surprisingly good material for custom power cells, but you need a special weapon to obtain it, and just finding it is a quest.
|
| Coral
|
|
Metal, Crystal, Fabric/Organic
|
A surprisingly versatile mineral cut from the coral outside Oshan Laboratory. Makes a lovely, royal purple color.
|
| Ectoplasm
|
|
Power Source
|
Don't think too hard about the implications of using a piece of a ghost for power. Its stats are abyssmal, but it's a relatively easy-to-obtain power source for manufacturer requirements and can used for neat stuff like soulsteel. Appears when enough ectoplasm reagent is poured onto a surface, when Wraiths choose to spawn ectoplasm through the Poltergeist ability, and when a ectoplasmic destabilizer successfully de-hairs a ghost.

| Space Spider Silk
|
|
Fabric/Organic
|
Obtained by butchering spiders of any kind, ice, clown, cluwne, or just regular.
|
| Cotton
|
|
Fabric/Organic

Obtained by ripping up or cutting towels with scrissors or wirecutters.
|

Obtained by using scrissors or wirecutters on a grown bee. It takes a few minutes for them to regrow their wool, before they can be shaved again.
