Hello all!
I was playing the new IC2 Experimental fork, when I noticed that bronze is currently unobtainable without an ore washing plant (you need the metal dust to craft it).
Is there a plan to change this going forward, or is Bronze going to become a "Tier 2" material? Bronze tools used to be extremely handy in the earlygame while iron was still scarce, but this is no longer the case. Obviously you need it to craft wrenches... and going so long without a wrench is a bit of a gameplay hazard.
I completely understand that IC2 Experimental is exactly that... just looking for some info, that's all.
