Trying for Rares but getting your smelters clogged up with Uncommons, that you can't even throw into infinite technologies because you don't have an entire duplicate factory for Uncommon inputs?

Then this mod is the solution for you! Take after the example of real-world manufactures with too many, too good items, and down-bin them by choosing to forget about their original quality and just treat them like lower-quality versions of themselves.

Adds 4 down-binners, which are chests that transform any item put into them into a lower-quality equivalent, down to the given cap.

Note Well

• Probably works on space platforms, but I don't actually have a save file with space access yet, so I haven't been able to test that.
• As of 0.2.0, base and space-age items with inventory grids are excluded from being down-binned, to avoid the complications that would arise from that. Since none of these items are ingredients this should not compromise the function of this mod. However, this is presently a hard-coded list, so modded items with inventory grids will get down-binned if they enter a down-binner, and their contents deleted in the process.

To-Do

• Prevent down-binning from resetting spoilage and durability.
