Handcraft Everything
Tired of being told you need an assembler to make something?
Handcraft Everything removes the crafting category restrictions and lets you build nearly any item by hand — as long as it makes sense.

🛠️ What This Mod Does
✅ Automatically makes all recipes hand-craftable (category crafting)

✅ Filters out recipes that:

Require fluids

Produce fluids

Use or produce non-carryable or hidden items

Are hardcoded to specific machines (fixed_recipe), like rocket silos

✅ Works with modded items and recipes

✅ Compatible with Space Age, Quality, and other major mods

🚫 What It Won’t Do
❌ Won’t let you hand-craft recipes that need fluid input/output (like water, oil, or steam)

❌ Won’t break fixed-machine recipes (e.g., rocket parts or biter hatching)

❌ Won’t change hidden or debug recipes

🤖 Mod Compatibility
This mod is designed to intelligently detect recipe compatibility and works with most mods automatically.

Tested with:

Factorio 2.0

Space Age

Quality

Factorissimo 3

💡 Use Cases
Play low-tech or minimalist runs where you avoid automation

Build entirely by hand in early game

Challenge runs or factoryless playthroughs

📦 Lightweight & Safe
This mod only runs in data-final-fixes and does not add or remove items or recipes. It simply modifies recipe categories safely and dynamically.
