Metal Press does not accept Blaze Powder if fed by Hopper/Wopper

[Dutchs]

Issue / Bug

A Hopper connected to the input of a Metal Press (Immersive Engineering) does not output Blaze Powder into the machine. Wopper MK2 also has this issue.

However dropping the 4 Blaze Powder as item entities onto the Conveyor Belt of the machine does work.

Possible Solution

The Metal Press seems to refuse the item if fed 1 at a time, possibly due to the requirement of 4 but only 1 supplied(at a time). As a fix, allow for input even if the supplied item does not fulfill the recipe requirement by itself but is part of the recipe.

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

1. Attach Hopper to input side of Metal Press
2. Input 4 Blaze Powder into Hopper

Had this problem, I just added an extra belt in front then fed that with the hopper. I believe that the belt just in front of the press is special as once an item hits it is "attached" and in the case of something that needs multiple items (blaze rod from 4x blaze powder) it stacks those items. Which is why you can not use it directly.

its a problem with hoppers as the press wants 4 blaze powder but a hopper will only push one at a time, getting an item cable or extending the belt like Shock2k did will fix the problem. its actually a nice way to stop full automation until the next stage.
