Minecraft:Crafter

• A variant of Minecraft:crafting table, can be crafted with five Minecraft:iron ingots, a crafting table, two Minecraft:redstone dusts, and a Minecraft:dropper in the crafting table.
• Crafters can be oriented in any direction when placed.
• A Minecraft:pickaxe can increase the speed of mining them.
• Have a user interface similar to crafting table.
  • Have 3×3 interactable crafting grid.
  • Their crafting grid slots are toggleable, meaning that the player can change the behavior of a slot by clicking or pressing on a slot with an empty hand.
    • A toggled slot cannot hold any items and therefore cannot have items placed into it by other blocks such as Minecraft:hoppers and droppers.
    • A toggled slot can be toggled off by player, whether clicked directly or holding item(s), pressing slot keys associated with an empty or a not empty hotbar slot.
  • Unlike the crafting table, the slots display a preview of the crafted item which will be crafted and ejected on the next redstone pulse, but cannot be manually taken out by the player.
  • The user interface is shared between all players interacting with them, meaning that multiple players can interact with them at the same time, similar to Minecraft:chests and hoppers.
  • The user interface does not have a Minecraft:recipe book to provide help, so the player must know the recipes.
• The crafter ejects one crafted item at a time when powered by a new redstone pulse, a redstone signal that is not a continuous signal.
  • Upon receiving this new signal, crafters eject the recipe result from the front face.
  • All the result items will be ejected together when the output result has multiple type of items.
• They can interact with hoppers and droppers, to input/output automatically.
  • Hoppers can be used to both insert and pull items out of them.
  • Droppers can be used to insert items into them.
  • Moving items in from another block with a hopper or a dropper prioritizes filling items into slots, by following these rules:
    • If there is a toggled slot, skipped.
    • If there is not a toggled slot, crafters prioritize the first empty slot from left-to-right and top-to-bottom.
    • If there is not a toggled slot, and there are no empty slots, crafters prioritize the smallest stack of the same item. If there are multiple possible stacks, pick the first from left-to-right and top-to-bottom.
  • If failed to select a slot, hoppers and droppers will not take any action.
• When read by a Minecraft:redstone comparator, the redstone signal strength is 0 to 9, where each non-empty or toggled slot adds 1 strength.
