New furnace doesn't seem to work

Post by Humbled21 »

Hey guys, I started the new .15 update and I hooked up my new Furnace (which looks cool)filled it with coal, and attached it to the steam engine (with water running through it), and then of course connected the power poles to my electric drill. The furnace runs for a couple seconds but the water doesn't heat up and the steam engine provides no power. Anyone else have this issue?

This isn't a bug. The water doesn't heat up going through the boiler, hot steam is released out the back of the boiler instead that you need to hook the steam engine to.

You have to place the boilers like this:

You can also show the advanced information by pressing the Alt key. This will show you where steam goes out and where not.
