  • Granular toggles: Toggle Wood, Ores, or Coal individually.
• Configurable Reserves: Set safety reserve thresholds so kilns and smelters never consume all your wood or raw materials.
• Full Output Protection: Stops feeding when the output bin is full to prevent waste.

4. 🔨 Craft Directly from Drawers

Changelog

1.0.6

• Crafting Interface 2x Display Bug Fix: Fixed an issue where the displayed material counts in crafting station requirement panels showed double (2x) the quantity stored in drawers. Isolated physical inventory item counting (CraftContext.Without) so drawer counts are never added twice to the total.
• Inventory Full Protection & Zero Item Loss: Overhauled inventory slot calculation using physical grid coordinates (GetActualEmptySlots) to ensure equipment mod slots never report false positives. Added hard protection ($inventory_full) against infinite item withdrawals when full, and fail-safe item drops (DropStacks) preventing any voided or disappearing items.
• Single-Ingredient Crafting Deficit Calculation: Corrected inventory vs drawer deficit checks during DoCrafting for single-ingredient recipes (Cauldron, Mead bases).

1.0.5

• Station Requirements UI (Real Counts): Completely resolved the issue where crafting station requirements showed 0 items available. Now dynamically displays the real combined available total from your inventory and nearby drawers (available / required) in both vanilla and modded UIs (e.g. AzuCraftyBoxes).
• Mead Crafting Station (Fermenter) Integration: Fermenter now seamlessly detects and accepts mead bases stored in nearby drawers. Added drawer-fed hover prompts ([E] Add {MeadBase} (from drawers)) and direct drawer consumption.
• Cauldron & Single-Ingredient Crafting: Patched Player.GetFirstRequiredItem and wrapped all InventoryGui crafting lifecycles with drawer craft context. Cauldron recipes and single-ingredient recipes now pull directly and smoothly from nearby drawers.
• Cooking Station Drawer Hover & Prompts: Added hover text prompts and cookable item discovery for cooking stations when meats or food are stored in drawers.
• Multi-Index Drawer Network: Multi-indexed DrawerNetwork.CraftCount and TakeForCraft by shared name, clean prefab name, and raw prefab name to guarantee 100% item matching across all vanilla and modded recipes.

1.0.4

• PoV & Modded Ores Compatibility: Relaxed custom metadata strictness for stackable items (ores, bars, wood, etc.), allowing mined resources with Path of Valheiman (PoV) affixes, levels, and drop tags to enter drawers seamlessly.
• Dynamic Hammer HUD Fix: Patched Hud.SetupPieceInfo with live drawer craft context, ensuring the HUD requirement panel displays real material counts from nearby drawers while aiming/placing build pieces.
• Robust Prefab Resolution: Stripped Unity clone suffixes and added shared name fallback matching across drawer storage, ground pickup, and smelter feeds.

1.0.3

• Community & Support Integration: Official ArcadeRoom Discord support links and ticketing channels added.
• Multilingual Polish: Finalized German (de) and Bulgarian (bg) localization strings and font rendering across Ledger UI.
• Memory & Garbage Collection: Refined memory allocation loops during high-volume drawer item transfers.

1.0.2

• Performance & Optimization: Completely rewritten drawer spatial index with aggressive throttling; eliminated all micro-stutters and GC frame spikes during massive storage indexing.
• Auto-Feed Fine Tuning: Smelter fuel distribution algorithm now recalculates on dynamic tick intervals; removed redundant logging pipelines.
• Multilingual Expansion: Added full German (Deutsch / de) localization across the Ledger GUI, drawer hover tooltips, and system notifications.
• Default Ranges Refined: Fine-tuned default build and crafting detection radii for balanced base upkeep without network latency.
