Is it intended to use dirt in the hand sieve? I put a stack in the UI, then held down right click. The dirt was consumed but no items were produced

How far into the quest line is "Completed" so I know where to stop even trying to play?

Nevermind apparently I'm supposed to use Loamy dirt..any chance at NEI integration for the sifted products? That's a key feature Ex-Nihilo has that Subsistence is missing

Dirt works, but chances for drops are very small.

No plans on NEI integration. The point of the mod within Infernal Skies is difficulty and immersion; not magical helpful GUIs. 😜
