Exoflame

The Exoflame is one of the functional flora added by Botania. When supplied with a source of Mana this flower will do the opposite of its generating counterpart, the Endoflame, and use Mana to generate heat. Any Furnaces nearby the flower will be fueled and given an efficiency boost when it is supplied with Mana. Multiple Exoflames will have a stacking effect on efficiency of all Furnaces within their radius, and will allow more Furnaces to be fueled at once.
Exoflames are not found naturally and must be planted by a player.
It can store 300 Mana internally.
The flower powers any AbstractFurnaceEntity’s, such has blast furnaces, furnaces and smokers, has well has some compatible modded furnaces, within a 11x11x5 volume centered on the flower, for 10 seconds (200 ticks) of cooking time at the cost of 300 Mana.
==Cooking time Boost==
The flower boosts the cooking progress of any Furnace, at no Mana cost, within its range every 2 ticks by 1 tick of progress when it is filled with 300 Mana, boosting the cooking time by 50%, effectively increasing the efficiency of the furnace by 50%.
When multiple Exoflames are present they add their boosting effect cumulatively by 50% each, meaning that 2 Exoflames filled with 300 mana each will boost the cooking time by 100%, doubling the cooking speed.(In vanilla Minecraft each smelting operation takes 10 seconds or 200 ticks)
The cooking time can be roughly calculate by:
\left \lfloor ((200/(1+(flowers/2)))=cookingtime) \right \rfloor
where:
*flowers is the number of Exoflames affecting a furnace.
*cookingtime is the cooking time in ticks.
note:
Since it boosts the cooking time every 2 ticks by x amount of flowers within the range of the Furnace, it can be boosted with a maximum amount of 198 flowers since 1 tick is always not boosted, 1 tick not boosted + 1( +198) tick boosted = 200 ticks of cooking time.
