Species

This genus includes the following two species:

gollark: Do you want to conserve the rare resources (dark oak) or reduce crafting time?
gollark: Stuff like "should 8 dark oak planks or 1000 oak logs be used" is also a problem.
gollark: Of course not.
gollark: <@236831708354314240> The issue is that it's ridiculously hard to figure out how to best get what you want from what you have.
gollark: Like autocrafting something in Minecraft given a list of crafting recipes and items.
