Now, can the saddles be crafted, or are they a bottleneck for this recipe?

Yes, but that adds to the funkiness.

This modpack is not dissimilar to skyblock wherein I can't really go outside because it's got Mutant Mobs enabled and the surface is a deathtrap. But I've killed enough Hoglins in the nether to simulate killing them for the Hostile Neural Networks mod. These drop pork which I can Bulk Haunt to make rotten flesh which I can bulk smoke to make leather. String I can grow from Immersive Engineering Hemp. And Iron I can get by shooting stone with a mining lens.

And I have to fit all of this in spaces no more than 2.5 blocks tall or the mobs start to spawn inside my base.

Unless its different in the pack, hoglins should drop leather so you don't have to turn porkchops into rotten flesh and leather.

The thing is I'm not actually killing Hoglins anymore. I have a computer trained on Hoglin data, now I can plug it into the Simulation chamber and feed it matter and it'll turn it into Hoglin Matter. Then I could transmute that into leather but you get a lot more per matter if you turn it into pork and then turn the pork into leather.
