Features

This mod adds a "Smeltery" task for maids, enabling them to autonomously manage the full TiC smeltery/foundry workflow:

• Auto Pathfinding — BFS search for nearby smelteries/foundries with position caching
• Fuel Management — Detects low fuel and refills using fluid containers from inventory (compatible with all mod implementing Forge fluid capability)
• Ore Insertion — Inserts allowlisted items into the smeltery for melting, automatically skipping items that require higher temperature
• Fluid Pouring — After melting, automatically activates faucets to pour fluid into casting tables/basins; supports ingot casts, gem casts, nugget casts, and basins with priority-based target selection; checks for valid casting recipes before pouring
• Item Collection — Collects finished items from casting tables/basins after cooling
• Alloy Avoidance — Checks alloy recipes before inserting ores, only inserts when the new fluid won't form a new alloy with existing fluids (smeltery only, not foundry)
• Fluid Sorting — Automatically moves the largest fluid volume to the bottom before pouring, ensuring priority export
• Fuel Protection — Won't insert ores when fuel is completely depleted, preventing items from getting stuck
• Non-Meltable Extraction — Automatically extracts items that can't be melted (no recipe or insufficient temperature) from the smeltery
• Auto Compacting — Auto-craft 9 nuggets into ingots, 9 ingots/gems into blocks (can be disabled)
• Inventory Sorting — Auto-sort inventory by Blocks > Ingots > Gems > Nuggets > Other (can be disabled)
• Status Bubbles — Maids display chat bubbles based on current work state, including no fuel, no ores, no casts, inventory full, etc.

Debugging

This mod supports Touhou Little Maid's debug system. With debug mode enabled, use the debug stick on a maid performing smeltery work to see:
