Understanding the %ss Bit Item
What the Bit Is
The %ss Bit is one of the registered items in the mod. Unlike the supply blocks and the microblock blocks, it is an item rather than a placeable block. It is produced through the mod's crafting recipe type, crafting_shaped, so it is made in a crafting table using a specific ingredient arrangement.
Crafting the Bit
Because the recipe is shaped, the position of each ingredient in the crafting grid determines the result. Lay out the ingredients exactly as the recipe requires. If the output does not appear, the pattern is wrong — rearrange the ingredients to match the shape rather than adding more of anything.
Where It Fits
The %ss Bit is a component item. Treat it as a building ingredient for other recipes rather than something you place in the world. Check the recipes you are trying to make; if a recipe calls for the %ss Bit, craft the bit first, then use it as an ingredient in the next shaped recipe.
Practical Workflow
1. Gather the ingredients for the %ss Bit.
2. Craft it in a crafting table using the correct shaped layout.
3. Store the bits until a recipe needs them.
4. Use them as ingredients in subsequent shaped recipes.
Keeping Track
Because the mod registers only a small set of items and blocks, the %ss Bit is easy to overlook. Keep a stack on hand if you are working through recipes that depend on it, so you do not have to stop and craft more each time. Pair it with the Microblock Workbench and Microblock Structure when building detailed constructions that rely on the mod's components.
