g [Any Planet Start + Arig] Are you supposed to hand craft science packs to research Assembling machine 2 to process clear sand from sifting?

See title. I started on Arig and didn't see a way to get rid of the pure sand in a sifter outside of the fill pure sand barrel recipe, which requires Assembling machine 2 and Fluid handling unlocked; as the sifter seems to be the main source of resource on Arig, do I have to handcraft my way through green science packs to unlock Assembly machine 2 and Fluid handling? Or am I missing something?

The any planet starts still need some tweaks but i think you can unlock automation 1 and use assembling machines after red science, or are they locked?

Assembling machine 1 can't process fluids; you have to unlock automation 2 to use Assembly machine 2 to process fluids, which takes green science.

I was referring you don't need to handcraft green science if you have assemblers, I'll probably tweak some stuff in the next updates

Well, to craft green science I still need iron and copper, which still come from the sifter, which still produce the pure sand byproduct that I can't get rid of, meaning I still need to do most of the work by hand to make green science.

Oh, now i understand, right now the only way is to void them with a tank, I'm thinking of adding the flare stack mod to make it more comfortable in the future
