Crafting is one of the four foundation pillars of No Man's Sky.
Summary
Player can craft technology upgrades for their exosuit, starships, Multi-tool, Exocrafts, and Freighter using blueprints found throughout the universe, purchased in space stations or awarded by NPCs.
Player can also craft products, which are often more valuable materials than pure elements. Products can be used in:
- components for more complex items and blueprints
- fuel technologies at ease (compare to fuel elements directly)
- commodity profit while trading
- base construction parts
Dismantling upgrades
Certain products and upgrades can be dismantled (i.e. broken down into basic elements with a 25-50% recovery rate). Crafting items might allow a player to save space by filling one slot with a crafted object instead of having to use three slots for the resources involved. It will also allow a player to recycle components while building upgrades, rather than simply discarding or selling the older components. When an upgrade is dismantled, the raw materials returned are roughly half the totals used to originally craft the item.
Additional Information
- As of Atlas Rises update v1.35 it is now possible to craft multiples of the same product at once, as well as craft the same product on top of an existing stack.
