Crafting Unlimited is a streamlined and balanced alternative to certain features from Ex Compressum. This mod retains the essential early-game progression systems while reducing resource grind and making crafting more intuitive.

Key Features:

Simplified Early Progression: Turn sticks into Wood Patches, then craft two into a Wooden Pike to extract worms from dirt.
Natural Fertilizer Chain: Worms can be used to produce Feces, which can then be converted into Bonemeal for early crop growth.
Tool Crafting: Combine Gravel(Pike to get a pebble) and a Wood Patch to create a Primitive Knife, unlocking access to Silkworms.
Basic Automation: Craft Wood Plates from four Wood Patches, then combine two of those with string to make a String Sieve.
Renewable Saplings: Use the String Sieve with dirt to obtain Oak Saplings, giving you renewable access to wood.

Whether you're looking for a lightweight start to your survival experience or a modpack-friendly alternative to more resource-heavy automation mods, Crafting Unlimited offers the essentials without the excess.
