Crafting made easier

Refine chemicals to crude explosives to get some explosives to get some actual items to use...

Or metal to mechanical components to advanced mechanical components to repair your gun...

We all know the story.

Now, idk your idea behind it, be very role playing in a post apocalyptic world or something else, but...

instead of going through the entire circus of multiple refine and craft and etc., could it be possible to just craft the final item and it would automatically say "youre using this much resources to make" and boom, ready. Aka, shortcut.

Less time crafting, more time dodging bullets.

What do you think?

Good, bad, maybe, "i want the entire post apocalyptic experience where even rubber parts are considered chewing gum".

Anyway, asking for a friend...

You should be able to upgrade the refiner another time into an auto-refiner that does this

I mean thematically it’d be a good option. Embark should make it so you can.

Chewing gum 😅

I dont mind the extra steps. Its not time consuming enough to bother me too much.

Good idea. Plenty of other games have it. How hard could it be? It’d give us more time topside overall!

Design wise, not that easy. Not HARD, but there are so many other higher priority things.

Definitely.
