Refined Metal for Vertical Building

5 votes

Currently, metal platforms can only be built on ground which limits the possibilities of builds with them. I'd like to see the ability to build metal platforms on top of each other so you can build vertical cities with actual workable space between each metal platform.

Refined metal would work in a similar way to treated planks, where you essentially need an additional processing step to increase the strength of the material. With this stronger metal, it should be able to support a metal platform resting on top of the center beam.

Refined metal would need a new workplace that would make high temperatures to heat treat the metal. The new workplace could need ridiculous power and resource requirements such as 1000-1500W of power and consumes 3-5 logs per heat treated metal block (side note, a new resource coal would be excellent for this idea). Perhaps fewer logs with higher power requirement. Given the high temperatures, only barrel bots could work the refinery.
