Security & Behavior

• Hoppers can no longer insert items into machine output slots

• All items stored inside an ancestral machine are automatically dropped when the block is broken

Automation

• If a hopper containing Ancestral Solution is placed above:

  • Ancestral Infuser
  • Ancestral Forge
    The solution is automatically inserted into the correct slot

• If a hopper containing Ancestral Tool Components is placed above an Ancestral Forge:
