…e network The book said the Crafting Interface "will track changes in the storage network" and completes a job "once the expected outputs are present in the storage network". That reads as though any route into an attached storage counts, but completion is only detected for outputs that pass through the network's ingredient channel. Results that a pipe or hopper writes straight into an attached chest or drawer are therefore never detected, even though a terminal shows them, which is a confusing state to debug from the book's description.

Problem
info_book.integratedcrafting.crafting_interface.crafting.text3currently says:That reads as "any route into an attached storage counts". It does not: since
a11738dcompletion is detected solely through the network's ingredient channel insert pre-consumer, so only an Integrated Tunnels importer or the machine outputting into the Crafting Interface will do it.The paragraph does go on to name those two mechanisms, but the sentence before them promises something broader, and that is the reading people take away. It is also the sentence that section explicitly exists to support — "This information is essential to get the most out of this mod, and to debug any issues you may encounter."
I reproduced the resulting state in a game test: a vanilla hopper moving a furnace result into a network-attached chest leaves the ingot sitting in storage, visible to the network, while the crafting job waits forever. The importer variant of the same setup completes normally. That is exactly what #213 reported, and it took eight rounds to resolve there.
Change
Replaces the misleading sentence with one that says outputs must be inserted into the network, keeps the two supported mechanisms where they were, and adds an explicit note about the failure mode and how it presents:
English only; the translations come through Crowdin.
Note
I deliberately did not mention the blocked-output-buffer case here, even though it belongs to the same debugging topic, because the status it refers to only exists once #233 lands. Happy to add a sentence about it in a follow-up if you want the book to cover both stall causes.
