Thread: schematics
That is a semi complete listing of the cureent schematics in the game with the resources and skill levels needed to build each item. The Architect is 100% done I believe and we are looking for more schematics from other professions.
ok... I made one, now how the hell do I use it and do I still get exp for using it?

Factories use schematics.
Schematics are useless until you have a factory.
Onceyou make your first factory (which only architects can do) you will give it like a CDEF Pistol schematic or something, a large amount of resources, and tell it to go.
It will produce pistols and use the resources. I don't have any so I don't know about the XP but it seems you should get XP for it or it would be kind of useless after a while. You definitely get XP for making the deed.
How exactly do they work, i tried to create one at a station, but nothing happens
Could someone explain to me how this works.
I'm not particularly experienced with this, but here's what I know:
When you create the schematic, it goes into your datapad. You then go to a factory and insert that schematic from the operating menu. After that, put the necessary resources for however many items (up to 100) you want from the factory, and tell it to start. Then it e-mails you when it's done and you go pick up a factory crate of that item.
I certainly hope we get more schematics as drops. Q3PO has stated that with the first "Major Monthly Update" the top priority is a more interesting loot system.
So there is hope!
