Ok back. I've tried energy cubes (all four varieties) as well as energy tablets...my crusher still does not want to crush.
Creating factories with smelting capabilities and crushing capabilities results in interesting results. The smelting factories (all 3 tiers) work fine both with the universal cable and the energy cube battery replacement, but the crushing factories do not. I think the crushing reactions themselves might be broken.
Is anyone else having trouble with the crushers?
Edit: The crusher functions fine when crushing smooth stone. It's definitely the reaction. I can confirm that Iron ore and Gold ore will not crush. I'll start testing the other ores
Edit2: Wait...none of the old ore crushing reactions are listed. Did they get removed entirely?
