FAQ

· Packing other items
Use the packing function
packing_add("item-to-pack", "package-item", amount, "unpacked-item", unpacked-item-probability)
You can use every item for this.

unpacked-item-probability = 1.0 will lead to every package-item lead to corresponding unpacked-item
unpacked-item-probability = 0.8 will lead to package-item lead to 20% of package-item and 80% of unpacked-item

example :
packing_add("battery", "plastic-wrap", 1, "used-plastic", 1.0)
packing_add("artillery-shell", "wooden-chest", 1, "wooden-chest",1.0)

If you want a multiple package just call the function again.

· other package-items
you can use every item for package; even a rocket-silo as I did not build in a restriction
You need to make your package & used-package item and their corresponding recipes available in the game

· fluid-package
For now its not foreseen and I don’t know if it will work, because no provisions for fluids are made in this mod.

· Place packaged items
This will work as normal, because the name of the item is not changed.
You will not get the uses package-materials when placing items, as I think they are stored close to the item, but if you pick them up they are packed again.
I really don’t know if this needs to be changed because this will need a whole set of new recipes and restriction for placing packed items and there is the question for using bots for placing then

· Packing items of other mods
You can use the packing-function for this.
If you are not the owner of the mod then best would be to ask the mod-author about this, because he will have the best insight if and how it will fit into his concept

But feel free to recommend mods, I will notice this, but I am normal a selfish guy and i may start with my favorite mods if J
(but hey its no big deal for yourself to set up a local mod for this, albeit it would be nice if you then share your work)

· Why is the graphic so bleak
I am not a grafics-guy I hope I can make it nice in the time come.
But feel free if you can contribute to this….

· Why is there a electric-furnace dupped as shredder
I use the electric-furnace as a parent for all shredding as furnace definition don’t need a recipe to choose, as a assembler, so it will be an easier build
