Crafting Bench

The Crafting Bench is a manual crafting station, allowing to craft all unlocked components, except for:

The HUB has a Crafting Bench built into it, while additional Crafting Benches can be constructed elsewhere in the world using the build menu. Only one player can use a Crafting Bench in multiplayer, so building multiple is advised.

Usage

To craft a part, it has to be selected (or searched for) in the left side of the UI. If there are enough ingredients in the inventory, the Craft button turns yellow. The button can be pressed either by clicking on it Left, or held down automatically by tapping Space, which is useful for crafting a large amount of items.

After continuously crafting for a while, the hammer button will start glowing red, and boiling sounds can be heard. This has no effect on the game (any more[1]).

Recipes are unlocked by completing HUB Milestones and MAM Researches.

Early game crafting speed comparison

Recipes in a Crafting Bench are marked with hammer icon, which indicates how much time is required to produce one batch of items. A single hammer is equal to approximately 0.25 seconds (250 milliseconds).

Let's consider an example. The  Iron Ingot recipe has size of a batch that equals to 1. This means that 1 Iron Ingot is produced per recipe execution. Iron Ingot recipe has a cost of 3 hammers - that is, one Iron Ingot takes approximately 0.75 seconds (750 milliseconds) to be crafted. This results in production rate of 1.33 Iron Ingots per second.

Below is the comparison of manual crafting speed vs machine crafting speed. This should give you some idea about which items should be prioritized for automation. Items with low manual crafting speed should be automated first. 'Machine' refers to either the Constructor or the Smelter, which both operate at 4 MW.

Item Manual crafting
speed (item/min)

Manual speed multiplier
 Iron Ingot 80 30 2.66
 Iron Rod 240 15 16
 Iron Plate 160 20 8
 Copper Ingot 80 30 2.66
 Wire 240 30 8
 Cable 240 30 8
 Screw 320 40 8
 Concrete 120 15 8
 Biomass (leaves) 1200 60 20
 Biomass (wood) 2400 300* 8
 Solid Biofuel 96 60 1.6
 Copper Sheet 80 10 8

*Note that while a single Mk.1 Conveyor Belt can supply the  Wood required by a single  Constructor, the output of 300/min is too high for early-game belts, so multiple Constructors should be used if you wish to automate wood  Biomass production.

Trivia

  • The clanging sounds that play while using a Crafting Bench do not time up with the speed at which the progress bar ticks down - the ratio is about 11 sounds to 10 steps.

History

  • Patch 1.0.0.0: Moved to Special tab in the build menu
  • Patch 0.5.0.6: Fixed SFX missing for crafting on the Crafting Bench and in the Equipment Workshop.
  • Patch 0.4.0.4: Can now be rotated 45 degrees when placing instead of only 90 degrees
  • Patch 0.4.0.0:
    • Keys other than RMB and space no longer work for pressing the Craft button
    • Pressing space now holds down the Craft button until it is pressed again
  • Patch 0.3:
    • Crafting is now 33% slower (the time to do three steps previously now only does two steps).
    • Tweaked the amount of crafting steps of many items.
    • Clicking the metal area surrounding the Craft button now produces a cosmetic "hammer hit" effect.
  • Patch 0.2.1.19: Model updated

Early game development

Prior to the Closed Alpha, there was an equivalent to the Crafting Bench called a Workbench.
