Surtling Cores are commonly found in [[Burial Chamber]] dungeons.

----

== 🔥 How It Works ==

* Holds up to 25 Wood.
* Produces Coal automatically over time.
* Each Wood produces 1 Coal.

Coal is required to process ore in a [[Smelter]] or [[Blast Furnace]].

----

== 🏗 Placement Tips ==

* Place next to Smelters for efficiency.
* Multiple Kilns reduce bottlenecks.
* Shelter not required.
* Keep storage nearby for bulk wood.

Large metal projects often require multiple Kilns.

----

== ⚠ Common Mistakes ==

* Underestimating coal demand.
* Building only one Kiln.
* Not maintaining wood supply.

Iron-tier progression especially requires heavy coal production.

----

== 🛠 Strategy Tips ==

* Build at least 2 Kilns once entering [[Swamp]] tier.
* Create a dedicated woodcutting area.
* Keep Kilns fueled before large smelting sessions.
* Combine with coastal smelting hubs.
