Thread: What is my resource used for?
I've got a list that I put together in MS Word. It has the name-specific ingredients needed for all the weapon and armor schematics listed on allakhazam. I've tried repeatedly to paste it into this reply, but it just won't work (some kind of margin errors). If you want a copy emailed to you, just PM meon these boardswith your address or post it here.
I'd also love to make my list more complete. If anyone out there has put together a list of the ingredients needed in other professions (especially medic, architect, and DE), I'd love to get a copy to incorporate into my list.

e-mail address, that is!
To answer your more specific question, I don't think I've ever seen any schematics that call for the "unknown" resource types that pop up.I'm sure it can be used for generic requests (like 8 units of "chemical" or "inorganic" or whatever), but I don't think there are any schematics that specificallyrequirean unknown type of resource.
I could be wrong on that, I admit.
To find out what uses a specific resource, you can use Allakhazam's resource database:
http://swg.allakhazam.com/db/resources.html
For example, if you have a stack of high-quality Link-Steel Aluminum, and want to know what schematics require it, you go down the tree from Mineral to Metal to Non-Ferrous Metal to Aluminum to Link-Steel, click the link, and you'll see that it's required in an Advanced Weapon Stock, Droid Armor Modules 5 and 6, Laser Rifle, Laser Carbine, and an Advanced Chemical Dispersion Mechanism. So gunsmiths and droid engineers would be your best market to sell that to.
Of course, this same resource can be used in schematics requiring Aluminum, Non-Ferrous, Metal, Mineral, and inorganic (you can also check for schematics including those classes), but the less specific the resource requirement, the more options the crafter has, and the less likely they'd be to pay top dollar.
None of the "unknown ..." resources are a specific requirement for any schematics that I've seen. However, anything from the "Solid Petrochemical Fuel" class is used for a vibro blade unit and Ubese helmet. So try hooking up with a swordsmith or armorer.
One thing that I haven't seen (and maybe this is what you were asking for) is a list of all the named resources required in schematics. This would help out with resource speculation, since it would give a list of stuff to look for in my survey tool, rather than taking the survey results and looking up each item on Allakhazam.
I was wondering if there is a list somewhere, either on these boards or on a website, that lists what schematics a given resource is used in?
Mostly this would just be a useful marketing tool for me, since I have a couple 20k+ sets of resources that I don't know who would need or what they are used in.
If no such site or list exists, could someone please tell me what Unknown Petrochem Fuel (solid) can be used to make?
thanks
