How do you stop Auto-Crafting??
The cookpot and the retaining bin thing, just auto craft things when I place materials in. Like if I want to craft something in th ecook pot with berries, it starts to auto craft dyes.. Or in the bin, it's autocrafting jerky, and using up all my spark powder.

No way to really turn off the auto-crafting. Just remove the unneeded elements that are causing them to craft.

If u have oil in the preserving bin, take it out in order to stop crafting jerky.

Make sure no sparkpowder/gunpowder/charcoal is in the pot when trying to make something that requires berries.

You don't use _wood_ as fuel. It turns into charcoal, and the's why the dyes start popping out. You look up the specific ingredients for each recipe and make sure nothing else is left in the pot/cooker.

There are a lot of overlaps, and sometimes that's convenient. I'll make stamina AND healing brews simultaneously. There's one key ingredient I need to put twice as much of in. And with planning, you can multiple levels of kibble simultaneously. It's a _feature_ not a bug.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
