gollark: How does it handle stuff like different wood types?
gollark: But it's annoying.
gollark: I mean, there are good technical reasons for it, since handling *all* recipes is very hard.
gollark: Squid had a recipe dumper thingy of some sort so I got rid of it. Given the amount of random projects I wanted code from after getting rid of them previously (at least two!) should probably not do that.
gollark: Possibly.
