The input hopper is not accessible via the radial menu.


Once you start crafting, check the top left corner of the second crafting screen (where you select the resources and components). You will find a second tab labeled "Input Hopper" or something similar. Switching to this tab will let you select from the input hopper.


I haven't used this feature much but I think you can put components and resources inside the input hopper by draggingand dropping from your inventory.

You must be using a tool that corresponds to the station, such as a weapon droid and general crafting tool with a weapon droid and general crafting station. Then you access the hopper by clicking on your tool (not on the station), and holding the mouse key down until the radial menu comes up on the tool. This should give you an option of opening the hopper on the station. Plus you should be able to see the hopper as you are crafting, as an extra tab while you are choosing resources. Any resources you put into the hopper will count towards your house total, so it isn't free storage.

Don't let the negative AFKophobes get you down. Play the game however you want.

Is the beta testing almost over for this game?

LadyGrey,


I think the hopper that is accessible through the crafting tool's radial menu is the output hopper of the tool itself and is not related to the input hopper of the crafting station. The tool's output hopper is used when a prototype is created while the inventory is at 60/60, leaving no room for the crafted object to be placed.


But, as usual, I am open for corrections...
