Description
No recipe for clay blocks to balls in crafting table. Not sure if its intended or not as there is balls to blocks.

Pretty sure that's just how vanilla works?

You can always either place the clay blocks and break them to get clay balls... or use a Compacting Drawer if you want to pick & choose between the two forms.

Automation would still likely use something like the unpacking dyes, but this should be a nice QoL recipe to be able to convert them quickly in the field.
