📋 About This Mod
This is a very simple mod that checks every machine output in the artisan goods category and copies the quality from the input item to the output, which means it will work with every modded machine automatically.
If a machine already produces items with predefined quality (for example, the Cheese Press producing gold-quality cheese from large milk), the mod increases that quality based on the input quality, up to iridium.The mod's behavior can be turned on or off individually per machine, so you can pick which ones copy the input quality and which keep their default behavior.
Universal Artisan Goods Keep Quality is a gameplay mod that ensures artisan goods retain the quality of their input materials. It works on any machine, including modded ones, making it a versatile quality-of-life improvement for players who want consistent quality in their production chains.
