Chests/Abandoned Mineshaft
Summary
This is not a mod block but an addition to three vanilla loot tables. Chests in abandoned mineshafts (chest minecarts included), monster-spawner dungeons and village toolsmith houses get one extra pool of early Ala Industrial items. The vanilla loot stays exactly as it was. The idea is to meet the mod through finds: raw tin and sulfur before your first vein, kok-sagyz seeds to start a rubber farm, now and then a copper coil or an electronic circuit.
Mini-example: a mineshaft minecart holds 4 raw tin next to the rails and bread; a dungeon chest has 3 kok-sagyz seeds and a canned ration; the toolsmith keeps 2 bronze ingots.

Energy
Not applicable: this is not a machine, and the pool holds no energy items.
Processing
Not applicable. The loot is picked once, when the chest is first opened (or broken), as with any vanilla chest that has a loot table.
Inventory
A vanilla chest (27 slots) or a chest minecart; the size does not change.
Interface
The vanilla chest screen.
Block Properties
The chests are vanilla; only their loot tables change.
Recipes
Not applicable. The pool holds items the mod already has (see Balance).
Progression
Early game only: tin and bronze ores, ingots and plates, rubber, seeds, food, a coil and a circuit. There is no uranium in any form, palladium, netherite, drill template (it lives in bastions), energy crystals, overclockers, mutation chips, RTP chip, soul vessel, electric tools or town plans: a find introduces the mod but never skips a tier.
