Packing Expansion
Package everything for your logistics convenience
Description
Adds the PE Packager, that allows you to package all items in the game at a ratio of 25:1, including fluids.
Adds custom recipe versions for all machines to use the packaged items directly, no need to unpack/pack before and after every production line.
All custom packaged items can be sunk, at the appropriate value, no need to unpack first.
Adds seperate versions of the power generators to use packaged/pressurized items directly.
Main reason i made this was to help late-game performance when building mega factories, since it greatly reduces the number of items, belts and pipes in your world.
All credit to Andre Aquila for the original idea with his Packing and Manufacturing Ficzip mods
Known issues:
*Water UI for the Pack Nuclear Power Plant and the Pack Coal Generator is broken. They run just fine however.

Frequently Asked Questions
Packing Expansion not working after update – what to do?
After a Satisfactory update, mods need to be updated. Check ficsit.app whether Packing Expansion has been updated for the new game version. With Mado Hosting: open the mod manager and click "Update All". If the mod hasn't been updated yet, temporarily remove it so the server starts.
Packing Expansion causing crashes in multiplayer – solution
Most common cause: all players must have exactly the same mod version installed. Check server logs for "ModMismatch" or "Version Conflict". Ensure all players use Packing Expansion v1.2.3 and the same SML. With Mado Hosting, Satisfactory servers run with 6 GB RAM for stable multiplayer performance.
Is Packing Expansion compatible with other Satisfactory mods?
Packing Expansion uses the Satisfactory Mod Loader (SML). Generally, SML-based mods are cross-compatible, but mods modifying the same game systems can cause conflicts. Test new mod combinations on a backup save. The Mado dashboard automatically detects known conflicts and warns you.
