-This module allows you to compress and decompress any stackable item or block by *16 or *64.
+This module allows you to compress stacks of items into a single item for better storage.
-== Details ==
+== Features ==
+=== General ===
+The Block Compressor is an upgrade to a [[Custom Crafters|Custom Crafter]] that transforms it into a machine that compresses and decompresses items on top of it. This module requires the [[Custom Crafters|Custom Crafter]]<nowiki/>s module to be installed to work correctly.
+Items can be compressed by a factor of 64 or 16, meaning that a single "64 compressed stick" is made from 64 regular sticks. Compressed items enable containers like chests and shulker boxes to hold vastly greater quantities of items.
+Compressed items can easily be decompressed back into their original state to be used in crafting and building. Be careful though, if a compressed item is placed as a block it will lose its compressed state. For example, if a *64 compressed diamond block is placed on the ground, 63 diamond blocks will have just been lost.

 === Creation ===
-Insert the recipe below into a [[Custom Crafters|Custom Crafter]] to upgrade it into a Block Compressor. The GUI of a Block Compressor is used as an interface to change the settings.
+Insert the recipe below into a [[Custom Crafters|Custom Crafter]] to upgrade it into a Block Compressor. When broken, the Block Compressor will drop both the items used to create a Custom Crafter and the items used to upgrade it into a Block Compressor.

 === Compressing and Decompressing ===
-A Block Compressor has 3 modes. It can compress *16, compress *64, or decompress. To set compression, place a stack of either 16 or 64 items (of any type) into the middle slot of the Block Compressor GUI. To set decompression, place a single item (of any type) into the middle slot of the GUI.
+The GUI of a Block Compressor is used as a settings interface for the type of compression it will do. A Block Compressor has 3 modes. It can compress *16, compress *64, or decompress.

+=== Technical Details ===
+A chest full of *64 compressed items can hold a total of 110,592 items, 6400% more than a chest of uncompressed items (1728 items).
-If compression is set, throw a stack of either 16, or 64 (depending on the mode) on the top of the Block Compressor. If decompression is set, throw a single compressed item on the top of the Block Compressor.
+A chest full of shulker boxes, each full of *64 compressed items, can hold 2,985,984 items.
