Benchest

Benchest is a lightweight Quality of Life (QoL) mod that connects chests to processing benches (such as Furnaces, Forges, and Kilns) in Hytale. 

Place a single chest touching your bench, and Benchest handles both directions seamlessly: raw materials and fuel are drawn into the bench, and finished products flow directly into the chest.

## What it does
- Two-way automation: Both inputs/fuel and finished outputs share the same attached chest.
- Automatic ignition: The bench starts burning automatically as soon as valid materials and fuel are present.
- Overflow support: If you have multiple chests attached and the first one fills up, finished items automatically spill into the next chest.
- Native game rules: Respects vanilla recipe filters and fuel types (handled natively by the engine).

## How it works
Place a chest adjacent to any processing bench (within 1-2 blocks of the bench's perimeter). Every few ticks, Benchest checks nearby containers:
1. Feeds valid input materials from the chest into the bench's input slot.
2. Feeds valid fuel (coal, wood, etc.) from the chest into the fuel slot.
3. Automatically starts processing if input and fuel are loaded.
4. Gathers completed output items and deposits them back into the chest.

## Requirements
- Hytale Early Access
- Server-side only (Vanilla clients can join and experience the automation without installing the mod).
