Greetings,
There could be many reasons why it is so. Let me count them all and maybe you find a solution:
- You put correct item in the chest? A purple item that resembles sulfur icon?
- By default chest stops generating catalyst when there is already a full stack in it. Do you have 1000 catalyst already inside?
- Mod settings turned off catalyst generation at all, please check mod settings, there is a whole section about this mod
- Changes that were made to make this mod compatible with multiplayer broke something in code. Could you please try to install version 0.0.14 ?
Also, just in case nothing helps, could you please attach log file somewhere? I will look on it.
In addition, please craft any Hungry Chest and put some catalyst inside. If it won't start generating raw ore, then it's something global with a part of code that is responsible for operations with chest inventories.
Finally, just for info, even if catalyst generation does not work, you didn't lose much, it's 1 per second and much more efficient way of generating catalyst is through closed loop recipe: you take void stone, turn it into 10 pieces, then each piece into 10 shards, then each shard into a catalyst, total of 100. Depleted shards can then be then combined back into void stone and cycle repeats.
