How will the crafting be in starbound? will it be like a normal crafting table? (Terraria, Minecraft) or will there be a special crafting table for different things. I have a great idea!!!! The Laser Assembly table. In minecraft you just put 3 rocks and 2 sticks together and POOF!!! a pickaxe. NO!!!! That's stupid. but with lasers it will be possible. Maybe there will even be a short animation of a laser and then your item pops out. Or maybe there will be special crafting blocks for everything. like: The weapon maker. The Tailor. The minilab (for acids and gadgets). The Heater (for ore's)
Yeah I really think that they will implement as much crafting stations as possible. Just because it makes things nice, and complicated. And it should take you time to research, craft, smelt, and build. Just because it gives a nice feel to it. Also, there should be a probability that researches will fail, and a random ammount of metal that you gain from ores. As there should be ore rich stones, and stones with less ore in them.
From this thread: Some simple crafting will be done on person, and more complicated creations will require you be on the space station at the manufacturing station. I suspect, however, that a number of other crafting centers will be available on the space station as well.
For some reason, I always loved having multiple crafting stations for multiple purposes in one place in Terraria, so the more, the better. However, I think that for big things like Mechs, factories should be used to make them.
yeah that is better than terraria. You could have different crafting stations for different items like a furnace instead of anvil but ad more variety and make it more realistic at the same time
Different crafting stations is most realistic. A manufacturing station should be able to represent multiple crafting stations as well as mech construction.
I want it to be like you click a crafting station named for example "Garage" (obviously crafting vehicles) and then poof! we see crafting screen and there is a square where you put bottom things (legs for mech, wheels for cars etc.), engine square (various types crafted somewhere else), upper square (I like brackets) and things like that. It could be also used as a weapon crafting.
I think that there should be different crafting stations, as said before, but these will have different animations and formats, such as a furnace could have 1 spot to put your ore, and having another spot to pick up your ingots or bars. Where as a crafting table will have a spot to put all of your materials in, and then choose what you would like to make. I hope for there to be at least 6+ crafting stations, all for different purposes (smelting ores, making big vehicles, making metal tools, having an alchemy bench, maybe an enchanting station for magic weapons and armor, and finally, all of the other common places that you must have to make something, like in Terraria, you need water to fill an empty bottle. Thank You For Your Time...
Different crafting tables, with a better UI than Terrarias. In Terraria if you placed crafting stations next to each other and opened the esc menu, you had to slowly scroll through a bunch of items to make what you wanted.
I didnt say that I wanted a crafting table, I said that I wanted an item that would serve the purpose of a crafting table, it can be whatever those wonderful developers can come up with! When I said "crafting table" and "furnace", I meant whatever cool Gizmo that would have that purpose...
It's been said that the majority of the crafting in the game takes place aboard the space station via the use of 3D printers.
Personally, I would love to have - at least - few crafting tables/stations. Lab table in laboratory. Anvil-like-thing to make armors and weapons in armory etc.
I want a replicator. It's like a 3D printing machine, but 9000% more awesome, because it prints with ANY element or compound, which allows them to make almost anything.
