How to Repurpose Excess Copper for Outpost Beacons

Mining underground frequently yields large stockpiles of copper that outpace everyday crafting needs. This mod provides a functional sink for surplus copper by letting you convert it into portable base infrastructure.

Converting Copper Stockpiles into Buff Stations

1. Consolidate Raw Copper: Smelt your stored raw copper into ingots. Allocate the majority toward crafting solid copper blocks, while setting aside a stack of loose copper ingots for payment.

2. Package Outpost Kits: When traveling to distant mining shafts, quarries, or outposts, pack solid copper blocks in increments of 9 (for a minimum 3x3 base) up to full pyramid quantities, along with a beacon and several copper ingots.

3. Deploy On Site: Place the solid copper blocks beneath your beacon near active worksites to secure constant Haste, Resistance, or Speed buffs without risking your valuable iron or diamond supplies.

4. Power with Spare Ingots: Use your extra copper ingots in the beacon menu whenever you need to adjust effects to match the task at hand.
