A microwave that runs on temporal gears!
Put food in, close the door, press Start. It cooks raw food, warms up cooked food (crocks and bowls too), and rewinds spoiling food back to completely fresh.
Features
- Firepit-style cooking: input slot, progress arrow, output slot.
- Cooks raw food in half the time of a firepit (15 s per item in a copper'wave)
- Warms cooked food , crocks and bowls
- Un-spoils food completely; the more spoiled it is, the longer it takes
- 23 metal versions!
- Real microwave sounds: start-up, hum and ding (Free to use)
- Lights up and glows
- + Surprises
Power
The temporal gear on top is the battery. A crafted microwave comes with one fitted. Each item uses one charge (spoiled food uses two). When the charges run out, the gear crumbles and the microwave goes dark. Right-click with a new temporal gear to power it again.
Compatibility
Works with modded food that cooks in a firepit or spoils. A Culinary Artillery's full-size cauldron is too big to fit; the mini cauldron fits, but it's metal...
