Thread: What does Similar Structural Module mean?

/sigh, good, thanks for the quick reply, I was getting a little worried there about wasting that 1K of ore. It's a side crafting character I have for fun and I barely have enough time to run a couple missions and dump the credits into small personal harvesters that keep me going. Picked up Architect so I could build my own factories and houses cause I'll never have enough to buy them.

Yes...the only ones you need to worry about are 'identical'. This means all from the same factory crate, so you'll need to sort out a factory of the appropriate type and run a box or two off of that item. A pain.

I had the same confusion about similar. Wish they would just drop that word from the schematic. It would clear up the confusion. At present it serves no purpose.

You can replace th eword similar with random.


6 random walls made with different stuff will work.


I agree it serves no purpose.

No need to replace it with random though. Just make it 6 wall modules. Instead of 6 similar wall modules.

I have a new semi-architect character on Shadowfire and I am trying to build myself a house. I am pretty low on resources and cash so I set up my surveying macro to get more ore. While waiting I built 5 Structural modules out of some spare ore and metal that I've had for awhile. Then I notice that the crafting schematic says I need 10 SIMILAR structural modules. Does this mean that they have to all be built out of the same extact sets of resources? I hope not cause if so I just wasted like 1000 units of ore on structural modules I won't be able to use. If someone could clear this wording up for me I would appreciate it.

Nope - you are fine.

"Similar" just means "kinda from the same schematic"

You can mix any structural modules you want - hand-made by you, hand-made by someone else, from crates - in any schematic. Same thing for walls.
