Use electricity instead of fuel?

[Hanse00]

I'm trying to make myself an electric furnace, thanks to FreeER's awesome work, making a new furnace was a piece of cake.
However, now I need to swap out this part of the code

Code: Select all

    "burner":
    {
      "heat-capacity": 100,
      "heat-loss": 0.01,
      "heat-transport-speed": 0.005,
      "burning-speed": 0.001,
      "effectivity": 1000,
      "fuel-inventory-size": 1,
      "smoke":
      [
        {
          "name": "smoke",
          "frequency": 0.5,
          "deviation": [0.1, 0.1],
          "position": [0, -2.3]
        }
      ]
    },

I looked a little around at the items that have the thing in common that they use power, and it goes something like this for all of them

Code: Select all

    "energy-usage-per-tick": 1.5,
    "effectivity": 1.5,
    "energy-source":
    {
      "type": "electric",
      "input-priority": "secondary"
    },

However, the furnace doesn't use "energy-source" at all, unlike the burner inserter which uses

Code: Select all

"energy-source":
    {
      "type": "burner",
      "heat-capacity": 100,
      "heat-loss": 0.01,
      "heat-transport-speed": 0.005,
      "burning-speed": 0.001,
      "effectivity": 1000,
      "fuel-inventory-size": 1,
      "smoke":
      [
        {
          "name": "smoke",
          "frequency": 0.3,
          "deviation": [0.1, 0.1]
        }
      ]
    },

Basically, I'm getting really confused to how I'd go about having the furnace use power to smelt.
Anybody got any helpful tips?

Usefull tip: Wait for upcoming updates, this is not posible yet, as I said in the other topic

Yeah I have no clue why there are weird JSON inconsistencies like that ^^

maybe because it's an alpha? lol Still a great game and it can only get better
