Condensed Crude Ore

Condensed Crude Ore is a compressed block of Crude Ore worth 10x a normal one.

A single condensed block pulls 10x the production weight from your cell generators, holds 10x the absorption cap, and counts as 10x toward your cell's value — a dense way to store crude of one tier. It carries its own tags so it's never accidentally consumed as a normal-crude input.

Where to get it: craft it in the Custom Crafting Menu — combine one Crude Ore Core with 8 Crude Ore of a single tier, and the output matches the tier you supply (mixed tiers won't craft). It used to drop from bosses, but that source has been removed in favour of the recipe.
