About Higher Crafting distance

From mod.io

Crafting stations reach chests 25 tiles away instead of 10, and 50 chests instead of 20 (without the per-frame cost the other range mods pay)

Higher Crafting distance lets crafting stations pull materials from chests 25 tiles away instead of the game's 10, and from 50 chests instead of 20. Both are configurable.

25 covers a normal storage room. You can raise it to 100 in the config if you want (the cost is yours to spend.)

Configuration

- radiusInTiles — default 25, the game's own value is 10, allowed up to 100
- maxChests — default 50, the game's own value is 20, allowed up to 200

  Values outside those bounds are clamped rather than rejected, so a bad config never stops the mod loading.

  Worth knowing

  - Range is measured from the crafting station, not from you. Standing next to a distant chest does nothing.
  - Only chests count. Cooking pots, aquariums and the like are never material sources, with or without this mod.
  - The chest limit is applied before anything looks inside them, so a chest past the limit is ignored even when it holds the one material
  you are missing. That is why the default is 50 rather than 20.

  Compatibility

  Do not run this alongside CraftingRangePlus or Extended Crafting Range. All three patch the same method and the same system; whichever
  loads last wins the range, and the others still pay their own overhead.
