✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Saves real time—no more staring at the screen for 30 seconds every mix.
- Solid community trust with 112 endorsements and over 22k downloads.
- Simple, focused fix that does exactly what it says.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects the NPC Mixing Station—if you don't use it, this mod does nothing for you.
- May conflict with other mods that alter the same mixing coroutine or station behavior.
- Last updated in May 2025—could be outdated if the game has since patched the mixing logic.
For players who spend a lot of time at the NPC Mixing Station and are tired of the long wait between ingredient insertions. If you're a chemist main or rely on the station for crafting, this is a must-have QoL mod. Skip it if you rarely use the station or prefer gameplay overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to place this mod in your mods folder and load it after any other mods that touch the mixing station to avoid conflicts.
- If you're using a mod manager, enable this mod and check for any overwrite warnings—if another mod modifies the same coroutine, you may need to choose which one takes priority.
- Test the mixing station right after installing to confirm the delay is gone; if not, check your load order.
