BigBatch

Bigger batches for kilns, smelters and other processing machines.

Core features

• 100 inputs for kilns and other processors; 50 inputs + 100 coal for smelters and blast furnaces.
• Configurable up to 1,000. Also covers windmills and spinning wheels.
• Protects against overfilling during delayed updates, including CraftFromContainers loading. Rejected items drop near the machine output, not back into their source chest.
• Normal loading controls, recipes, speed and fuel consumption stay unchanged. No built-in chest pulling; the regular crafting forge is unchanged.

Configuration

After first launch, edit BepInEx/config/jarki.bigbatch.cfg:

[Capacity]
InputCapacity = 100
SmelterInputCapacity = 50
FuelCapacity = 100

These control non-coal inputs, coal-burning smelter/blast-furnace inputs and fuel storage respectively. Each accepts 1–1,000; higher existing capacities are preserved. Restart and reload machines after changes. Updates keep saved settings.

Requirements and installation

Requires denikson-BepInExPack_Valheim 5.4.2351. No Jotunn or CraftFromContainers dependency.

Install with a mod manager, or put BigBatch.dll in BepInEx/plugins/Jarki-BigBatch/. Keep one copy. For multiplayer, install matching versions and settings on the server and every client; server-only or mixed installations are unreliable.

Uninstall

Drain machines before removing the mod or lowering capacities, and collect overflow drops. Remove through your mod manager or delete the DLL.

Compatibility and troubleshooting

• Real multiplayer and full world save/reload remain unverified. Back up existing saves.
• CraftFromContainers 4.0.70 is the targeted integration. Other loading/capacity mods may conflict. Check actual machine contents and returned drops, not a chest mod's “Added” message.
• Overflow drops can be collected by anyone and may despawn. Very large queues or dropped batches can cause hitches; drain machines before destroying them.
