Hello,
just trying out the mode and cant really find a way to craft iron plates. The reciepe says its only craftable in steel furnace and electric furnace. The same goes for copper plates.

How should i craft iron plates? Is it a riddle which i need to figure out?

Smelt in the foundry. I will fix the tooltip

we only got stone furnaces and in there you can only smelt stone

I'm also looking at this, cant smelt iron in the furnaces and no way to get pipes to make power for the foundries due to steam power being locked behind crafting 50 iron plates

there is power available

As in found through exploration?
