Summary

Reworks Kevlar line according to a slightly modified version of what Giri made a while ago. The reworked line splits kevlar into two subprocesses - woven kevlar, and composite kevlar.

Woven kevlar is available in UV.
Kevlar plates are available in UHV, but existing kevlar material based recipes remain unchanged. This is a small nerf to PCB factory usage.

Also adds a multiblock, the Sequential Layering Device, with an automation challenge. Tooltip is shown below.

Smaller notes:

  • Updates Fusion Casing Mk2 recipe to use Woven Kevlar instead of Netherite Plates.
  • Kevlar bee has its nugget output removed and combs given use in this processing line as a 2x multiplier for Woven Kevlar and Polyurethane Resin recipes
  • The QFT recipe for molten kevlar remains unchanged, but liquid crystal kevlar changed to woven kevlar
  • Liquid Crystal Kevlar has a 2x boost recipe using crystallized essentia (gelum)
  • Adds Layer Signal Hatch as a helper hatch for the multi

Remaining work (as of 31 August 2026):

Need to add punishment for not engaging with the mechanic (overheated machine state?)
Woven Kevlar needs to be given more uses
Multiblock controller needs a recipe
One of the kevlar fiber items needs a texture
Recipe balancing for the processing line
Multiblock needs a lot more use cases (radox? should this be a different PR?)
Layer Signal hatch needs a recipe
CRIBs needs to be handled properly or disallowed
