Problem description

Allow a user to increase or decrease the melting times of the melter, smeltery, and foundry as a whole through a config setting, or a way to do so in conjuction with CraftTweaker coding.

The reason being is I feel a lot of the melting recipes are too slow, but considering how many things are meltable using the three structures I would have to remove all recipes and then manually add each one back in with the melting time I would prefer. Considering the structures are tiered to an extent, it would make sense that the melter takes longer than the foundry.

Suggested solution

This can simply be three variables like "melterMeltingTimeMultiplier=1.0". This would be a 1.0-5.0 setting, with anything outside the range being clamped. It would then be a simple addition to melting times within the source code being something like "baseTime / config.meltingTimeMultiplier". Clamping would keep from worry about division by zero errors.

Alternatives considered

An alternative would be a way to access and adjust the melting times of recipes through CraftTweaker integration. Though I am unsure if that is your project or from CraftTweaker's dev.

I don't think this is worthwhile to add. Datapacks let you tweak all the recipes already, so you can add or subtract time to your hearts content. A global multiplier will just mess with the math, especially in terms of fuel usage.

For the record, if I remember the current numbers were set so melting 3x iron ore in the melter with solid fuel is comparable to melting 3 ore in the furnace.
