Crafting
Crafting and recipes
Every recipe makes one item or liquid from ingredients and tools. A recipe asks for exact items, or for any item with a crafting quality such as Cutting or Foliage.
Crafting rules
Where the ingredients come from
Recipes take items from your inventory and from items lying on the ground within 10 blocks of you with a clear line to you, not through solid ground. Favourited items are never used.
INT needed
A recipe shows in the crafting menu once INT is at most 3 below the recipe's INT. At the recipe's INT or above it always works.
1 INT short
50% chance that the result comes out at a random 20 to 90% of its normal condition, or of its amount for a liquid.
2 INT short
50% chance that nothing is made.
3 INT short
50% chance that nothing is made and both hands are hurt: 40 pain, 15 skin damage and 2 to 5 bleeding on each hand.
Ingredients
Ingredients are used up whether the craft works or not.
Tools
An ingredient marked as a tool is kept. It loses condition: the quality the recipe asks for divided by the tool's own quality. A knife with Cutting 8 loses 12.5% for a recipe that needs Cutting 1.
Liquid results
A liquid result goes into a container you carry that already holds only that liquid and has room. Otherwise it comes in a Temporary bottle, which disappears after 5 minutes or as soon as it is empty.
Batteries
A crafted item comes without a battery. An ingredient that is used up drops the battery that was in it.
Containers
A crafted container comes empty, except the Bowl of cereal.
First craft of a recipe
Making a recipe for the first time gives 10 base INT experience and raises mood by 1. Reading a blueprint teaches its recipe and gives 25 base INT experience.

Recipes that ask for a quality take any item that has enough of it.
