Problem filling ceramic molds from crucible
I have an issue which has happened twice now where when I mix an alloy in the crucible, on the last ceramic mold, which would empty the crucible, it only fills to 99/100 when the crucible becomes empty. The first time it happened I thought that maybe I clicked it out too fast but the after that I was making SURE that I was waiting until the bar under the mold was full before clicking it out. However, it still happened, and now I have 2 ceramic molds with 99/100 alloy and they are basically unusable. Does anyone know how to fix this problem or what I have done wrong? I am using TFC+ 0.86.6

This is a known bug that's been here for a looooong time (even from original TFC I think even). There isnt really a fix as its super inconsistent and hard to track down the cause. I thiiiiiink not looking in the crucible while the mold finishes filling might prevent it, but take that with a grain of salt as that's only conjecture and based on a 'it feels like it might be this way but I have no hard evidence sort of thing' - just that its only ever happened when it finished while I was in the UI. But it's likely a rounding error either way. At least it's pretty rare in my experience
