Instructions

Unlock the recipes: Each processing station becomes available as you progress through the main quests and unlock skill points in the Craftsman skill tree. Check your skill tree to see which stations you can unlock next.
Gather the base materials: Collect the required ingredients listed above. Wood Logs come from chopping trees, Stone from mining rocks, and Clay from digging in clay deposits. Shroud Liquid is obtained by defeating Shroud creatures or harvesting from glowing plants in the Shroud.
Place the station: Open your build menu (default key: B), navigate to the Crafting category, and select the station you want to place. Choose a flat area on your base and confirm the placement.
Interact with the station: Walk up to the station and press E to open its crafting menu. The menu lists all available recipes for that station.
Select a recipe: Click on the item you want to craft. The menu shows the required ingredients and the output quantity. Ensure you have all the materials in your inventory or in nearby storage boxes.
Start crafting: Click the craft button. The station will process the materials, and the finished item will appear in the output slot. You can queue multiple crafts by clicking the craft button multiple times.
Collect your items: Take the crafted items from the output slot. If you queued multiple crafts, the station will continue producing until all are done.

Tips

Storage proximity: Place storage boxes near your processing stations. The crafting menu automatically pulls materials from nearby storage, saving you time and inventory space.
Fuel management: Stations like the Charcoal Kiln and Furnace require fuel (Wood Logs, Coal, or Charcoal). Keep a steady supply in a chest next to the station to avoid interruptions.
Efficiency upgrades: Some stations have upgrade options that increase production speed or reduce material consumption. Prioritize upgrades for stations you use most often, like the Forge and Alchemy Station.
Common mistake: Don’t forget to check the station’s recipe list before gathering materials. Some recipes require processed items (like Charcoal) rather than raw materials.

Serving Suggestions

Use your processed materials to craft essential gear and building components. For example, produce Copper Bars at the Smelter to craft Copper Ingots for weapons and tools. Use Glass from the Glassblower to make windows and decorative items for your base. Combine processed materials at the Workbench to create advanced armor and weapons that help you survive tougher regions.

Variations

While the recipes are fixed, you can vary your production strategy. For instance, you can produce Charcoal from Wood Logs at the Charcoal Kiln, or you can mine Coal directly. Use the Grinding Mill to turn Wheat into Flour, or use the Loom to turn Plant Fiber into Linen. Each station offers multiple recipes, so experiment to find the most efficient use of your resources.

Storage and Reheating

Processed materials don’t spoil, but they do take up inventory space. Store them in labeled chests near your crafting area to keep your inventory organized. For perishable items like Food, store them in a Cooler or Ice Box to extend their shelf life. When you need to use processed materials, simply open the crafting menu and they’ll be pulled from storage automatically.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I unlock the Alchemy Station?
A: The Alchemy Station becomes available after you complete the quest “Alchemist’s Arrival” and unlock the Alchemist NPC. You’ll need to craft it at a Workbench using the ingredients listed above.

Q: Can I move a processing station after placing it?
A: Yes, you can pick up any placed station by using the hammer tool and selecting the “Pick Up” option. The station will return to your inventory, and you can place it elsewhere without losing progress.

Q: Why is my station not producing anything?
A: Check that you have all required ingredients in your inventory or nearby storage. Also, ensure the station has fuel if it requires it. If the station is still not working, try picking it up and placing it again.

Q: What is the best fuel for the Furnace?
A: Coal is the most efficient fuel, providing 8 units of burn time per piece, compared to Wood Logs which provide 2 units. Charcoal is also a good option, providing 4 units of burn time.

Q: Can I automate processing stations?
A: Yes, you can use conveyors and storage boxes to automate the flow of materials. Place a storage box with raw materials, connect it to a station with a conveyor, and the station will automatically pull materials and output finished products to another box.

Q: How do I get Shroud Liquid?
A: Shroud Liquid is dropped by Shroud enemies and can also be harvested from glowing plants found in the Shroud. You’ll need to venture into Shroud areas to collect it, so be prepared with healing items and a good weapon.
