Two more machines found their voice, and the Water Mill finally tells you what it is waiting for.

New

• The Canning Machine rattles. A light metallic clatter of tin down the line while it packs.
• The Galvanic Bath hums. A faint ionic buzz of electrolysis while it plates.
• Both tones are deliberately unlike the ones already in use — the press thud, the pump suction, the grinder — so you can tell what is running without looking. The silence chip mutes them like everything else, and subtitles are there in every language.

Fixed

• The Water Mill says "No wheel". Place one down and open it, and the screen used to be blank: it looked like it was working, made nothing, and gave no hint. It now names what is missing, the way the Wind Turbine has always announced a missing rotor.
• The mill's status line is never empty any more. "No wheel", "No water", "Blocked", "Wheel interference" — or how much it is currently making.

Improved

• Bad numbers in the config file no longer vanish without a word. Type a value the mod cannot use and it says so in the log, instead of quietly swapping it out and rewriting your file.
• A pump whose search fails now reports it with coordinates. Before, "nothing to pump here" and "the search broke" looked exactly the same.
