Crafting[]

The player can use various Workstations to craft any Craftable Items in the game. Most items require Ores or other Resources to be converted into Crafting Materials before made into the final item.

Crafting recipes can be locked until the player has all of the required materials in its Inventory. There is also an option to unlock all recipes.

Resources (including Ores)[]

Resources are found in the world and cannot be crafted. They are often used as raw ingredients in crafting recipes. Some are found sitting on the ground, such as Eggs, but most must be harvested from Plants, Mined, or taken from Animals. All of the Herbs, Ores, and Hides are resources. For a full list, click here.

Materials[]

Materials are crafted items that are used in crafting recipes themselves. Unlike Tools, these items are used up in the crafting process. Most of the steel items (Steel Plate, Steel Rod, etc.), Copper Wire, Cloth, and Coal are good examples of this. For a full list, click here.

Co-op Mode[]

In Update 1.6: Trading Territories, the Protective Barrier Generator was replaced with a map-wide permissions system called Co-op Mode. In Exploration Mode or Creative Mode, this feature can be used to protect the whole map from other players. The owner of that map is automatically "mayor" and can determine the roles for their friends, clan, and visitors.

Blueprints[]

As mayor, the player can capture Blueprints using the Blueprint Camera. These blueprints can be placed in any type of server (with the correct permissions) to quickly duplicate the original house or ship or other structure.

Demolition Hammer and Demolition Sledgehammer[]

The player can deconstruct blocks to get back the materials used to make that block or the block itself (with some exceptions). The player can use the Demolition Sledgehammer to deconstruct multiple blocks or the Demolition Hammer to destroy one block at a time. As a mayor, the player can deconstruct any blocks and as a citizen, they can only deconstruct their own blocks.

Decoration[]

Many Decorative Items can be Crafted or generated with the Creator Cube. For a full list, click here.

Dyeing[]

Objects can be dyed any color with a Dyeing Stand or Paintgun with Pigments in the player's Inventory (or a Creator Cube in the inventory).

Energy Gates and Switches can be used to make more complex energy links.

Note: The Charging Station can be used to charge Ylandium Power Cells, Small Ylandium Engines or the Mining Drill

Food[]
