Chemical Conduits: Added Melodic Alloy Chemical Conduit (256,000 / 4t) and Stellar Alloy Chemical Conduit (2,147,483,647 / 4t).
Smart Input Validation for Alloy Smelters: Input slots now strictly validate items against the current machine mode (Furnace, Alloys, or All) and valid recipes. Players or pipes can no longer insert invalid items that don't match the current mode's recipes.
SAG Mill Advanced Controls: Added two new functional toggle buttons to the Multi-Parallel SAG Mill UI:
Run Only With Grinding Ball: When enabled, the machine will actively pause all processing if the internal grinding ball buffer is depleted. This prevents your valuable ores from being ground at the inefficient base rate without bonuses.
Auto Distribute Inputs: When enabled, the machine automatically splits and distributes input stacks evenly across all empty parallel slots. This feature is heavily optimized using an event-driven method (triggering only when an item finishes processing), ensuring maximum convenience with absolutely zero TPS loss.
⚠️ CRITICAL WARNING: Due to the complete GUI rework for the SAG Mill, please ensure you break and pick up all previously placed SAG Mills in your world BEFORE updating. Updating directly with previously placed SAG Mills will highly likely cause the game to crash when attempting to open their GUI or break the block.
SAG Mill Grinding Ball Compensation: Your expensive grinding ball investments are now perfectly safe! When a high-tier SAG Mill is broken, the machine will calculate the remaining durability pool in its buffer and drop the exact corresponding number of fully intact grinding balls back into the world.
Balance, Tweaks & Fixes
Capacitor Slot Logic Fixes: Fixed an issue where capacitors could bypass the intended stack limit; they are now strictly locked to 1 per machine slot. Additionally, improved Shift-Click behavior: fast-transferring a capacitor from your inventory will now intelligently prioritize placing it directly into the capacitor slot, rather than getting incorrectly intercepted by the machine's input slots.
Machine Baseline Alignment: Statistically adjusted and verified the base values of high-tier Alloy Smelters and SAG Mills to perfectly align with vanilla Ender IO machine scaling standards.
Alloy Smelter Multiplier Buff: Significantly buffed the batch processing capabilities for high-tier Alloy Smelters. The multi-processing multiplier progression has been increased from 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 up to 3, 6, 10, 15, 21.
Stellar Energy Conduit Buff: Pushed the Stellar Energy Conduit to its absolute mathematical limit. The transfer rate has been increased from 2,000,000,000 RF/t to the 32-bit integer maximum of 2,147,483,647 RF/t.
The ultimate unofficial Ender IO expansion! Break your factory's limits with extreme-capacity conduits, multi-parallel processing machines, and high-tier endgame alloys.
