Thornment Posted September 13 Report Share Posted September 13 Does lighting affect cellar efficiency? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXx_Ape_xXx Posted September 13 Report Share Posted September 13 (edited) No, it does not as far as I know. Now, there may be difference between actual sunlight and a lantern or torch, but I never let sunlight into my cellar, so I don't know if it does.

Alder Posted September 13 Report Share Posted September 13 The blocks you use and your choice of door will affect the cellar's efficiency. I have never observed efficiency going down from using lights. I've used both oil lamps and lanterns and neither affects efficiency. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alluvium Posted September 15 Report Share Posted September 15 Any particular blocks better than others? I always just build it from some type of stone. Not played with different materials... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grummsh Posted September 15 Report Share Posted September 15 I think any solid block is ok stone, dirt, wood doesnt matter. Make whatever you like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not played with different materials... I can't provide any specifics, but from what I know stone-type blocks are the best. I haven't noticed a difference between natural stone and cobblestone. But I have seen a huge difference between stone and planks. I once tried to decorate my cellar with some wood supports, and it drastically decreased the efficiency. But you should be perfectly fine sticking with stone. I'd also recommend Cellar Door - By: UnnamedSystem No matter what door you use, it'll always decrease efficiency, the most efficient cellar must be completely closed off. This mod adds a ceramic door that will completely seal your cellar. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorfinn Posted September 16 Report Share Posted September 16 Cobblestone and packed earth used to be the same, too. Haven't checked in several versions. The biggest factor is the number of blocks. With my standard, a 6x6x6, the difference between a standard wood door and cobble isn't enough to worry about. If you build a 7x7x7, it's even less significant, but I have no idea what I'd do with all the extra space. At least a third goes unused as is, and that's including using the cellar as a forge and a kitchen. I doubt I could devise a layout that would use it very well, except maybe using a bunch of reed chests. And why bother, since many of the trunks are mostly or completely empty anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
