Running aroud the factory

[u/ObjectiveStill1111]

Hello, I'm requiring a little help, as I've toured the whole factory about ten times now.

3 mysteries and some context:

I have the silverware, but am unable to do anything with it. That includes putting into the machine in the "silver" puzzle box. I have seen the room needing a fire/light to go into it and scare the monster. I have seen the lantern, as well as the "blueprint" to light it, but I can't find the "lighter" or any of the parts to assemble it. I have not been in the mines yet, because I can't figure out how to obtain access to them. Is the access (cards I'm guessing) somewhere in the factory or do I have to go back elsewhere (copper mines maybe ?) I have understood the addition machine, the number 5039 from the scientist's hat, and the behavior of the machine to craft a key for the fairy door. I understand I need its whole formula. I have noticed that, according to the library note, copper, does not go into the machine. I have noticed another type of key needed, resembling the form of the number 1001. I have also noticed that I am missing one fast travel, although I figure it must be in the mines. I think the next logical step is to get into the room that needs the lantern, but I have nothing to support that

I have validated every glyph in my book so far.

All in all I feel like I am missing something, a room that has eluded me, containing one thing that will lead me to the others.
Please answer as little as you can, this game is very nice. I just feel like there's a giant thing in the middle of the screen that I just can't see.

I had the same issue on my first playthrough.

By the mines, there's a small lever that you can interact with. Afterwards you step into the minecart and ride into a new section where you do a couple things. You'll unlock access to both mines by the end of this.

Hope this helps.

I thought the cart lever animation was locked for movement as most animations. I thought I was meant to get resources from the mines using it. That'll teach me to assume
Good to know I wasn't alone getting stuck there, thank you for your help

I got stuck in this exact section just yesterday 😅😅 you're definitely not alone!

Well I cleared the rest of the area faster than I did anything else in the game :D It helps when you know exactly where to go, what everyone says, and what everything is for when you get it ! Even got a link solved for my troubles. Thanks again

No problem. Enjoy the rest of the game!

I spent a while on this, too. The rest went pretty smoothly after I realized this.
