According to that formula, using 8 limes & 17 ores should on average yield 1.53 iron bars per batch. However, a source has tested doing over 100 batches on a newly built smelter(noone else used that smelter) and reached the conclusion that the average yield was roughly 1.83, which is a lot higher than the theoretical 1.53. If the given formula is supposed to still be accurate, then the results from that source indicate that there is a bug which increases his average yield significantely for 8 limes & 17 ores. 334 fredrik 2012-11-28 23:57:16 +0100 That formula is wrong, though; it should be (0.01 * #limes + 0.02), so 0.1 in your case, which should give an average yield of 1.7 bars per smelter. 1.83 is obviously still higher, though. I'm not sure if it's within a margin where it can be ascribed to accounting error or not.
