Description
Transform your unwanted items into valuable XP with the Trash Compactor! This convenient utility allows you to convert junk or excess items into XP, giving you a reason to no longer throw them away into lava pits!
How It Works
As items are compacted, the internal XP container of the Trash Compactor will continue to fill, until a maximum limit has been reached (64). XP from the container can only be transferred to empty bottles, which are then filled to provide an output of a Bottle o' Enchanting. All items are currently treated equally in terms of the XP output they provide.
Unsupported Blocks
The following blocks that cannot be compacted are:
- Any blocks with tile/block entities
- Bottle o' Enchanting
