About this Mod

This mod adds a special cat that is "not observable" to shaped crafting recipes. Once the crafting is completed, it disappears completely.

...And that's it. What exactly is the purpose of this seemingly pointless mod?
Overview

How to Use

Spoiler

This is a "dummy" ingredient that acts as a placeholder in crafting recipes. It's especially useful for automated crafting setups (such as AE2, Refined Storage, or PackagedAuto).

This special cat fills empty slots in shape-based recipes, allowing automated systems (such as Create's Mechanical Crafter) to correctly process complex patterns.

Once crafting is complete, the cat disappears as if it were never there in the first place.

🐈 Compact your automation setup and let the cat process any quantum voids in your recipes.
