Arcane Packager is a block added by the Gadomancy mod. This machine allows the player to compress up to 9 stacks of items in the item similar to NormalUncommon Loot Bag. When opened, this "bag" will drop the items which were used to create it. In order to work, the machine requires redstone signal and

Essentia. Leather and String can be added to speed up the process.

Research aspects in this block[edit]

Thaumonomicon Entry[edit]

"Scattered in dungeons, temples, and ruins throughout the world are strange objects called loot bags. They seem small and relatively tough and light, but when opened, the fabric simply disintergrates, leaving a pile of valuable bits and things. Sometimes the among of things even seems to defy the size of the bag.

A closer inspection revealed that the bag is not actually made of fabric at all, but rather a fine mesh of stable Pannus essentia.

Not only that, but the fibers of essentia seem to weave themselves together even tighter when they are brought into contact with the pressure created by an aer tuned aura core.

The Arcane Packager is a device that replicates the conditions needed for Pannus essentia to form threads. The result is a small package that behaves much the same as any other loot bag. These small packages can even be disguised as normal loot bags. The process can also be replicated with leather and strings, but the result looks really cheap.

Up to nine stacks of items can fit in one package, and when opened the bag will disintergrate and drop its contents into the holder's inventory. Even other lootbags can fit into another lootbag. However, the aer tuned aura core can only stabilize those threads to some degree. If the package gets too big, it might cause overpressure inside the packager. To stop this from happening, you adjusted the Arcane Packager to drop the items into the world if the pressure inside rises above a certain level. The Arcane Packager can be started with a redstone signal."
