Hi,

I'm currently playing with the Modern Industrialization mod (NeoForge version), and I've encountered an issue with the Coke Oven GUI. Whenever I open the Coke Oven, a large black debug-like window appears in the interface showing:

Shape Valid
Status: Active

This seems to be a debug UI, and it appears even in a clean environment with only Modern Industrialization, Cloth Config, and GuideME installed. I’ve tried the following steps but nothing worked:

• Disabled all other mods (except required dependencies)
• Edited modern_industrialization-client.toml to include renderMultiblockDebug = false under [rendering]
• Set the file to read-only after editing to prevent auto-overwrites
• Tried both the latest and older versions of the mod
• Verified that this behavior persists even without EMI, JEI, or REI

Despite all this, the debug window still appears. I’ve seen videos and screenshots from other users where this window doesn’t appear at all, so I believe this may be a bug or unintended behavior in certain setups.

Is there a way to completely disable this debug UI in the Coke Oven?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

That is not a debug UI. Multiblocks don't work as single block machines do and need to be interacted with using hatches. It never has a UI where you input items like you do for an electric furnace, for example.

If you hold hatches in your hand and look at the multiblock, it'll show you the valid positions on the multiblock structure where you'll be able to replace blocks of the multiblock with said hatches. For the coke oven for example, you need a fluid input hatch for steam, an item input hatch for coal/coal dust, an item output hatch for the resulting coke/coke dust and optionally a fluid output hatch for creosote (unless you play NeoTech, where that hatch is necessary).

Ah, that makes sense! I’m new to Modern Industrialization, so I assumed it was some kind of glitch. Thank you for clearing that up!
