Hi,

I was just wondering how to make sunburns in a factory. Just so I don't stuff it up when I come to try it.

Do you have to remove the starshines from their crates? If so, wouldn't that make it impossible to craft say 100 sunburn as the input hopper of a factory can't fit the 200 starshines?

Or maybe do you peel 2 starshines off the crate to make the schematic, and then just put the starshine crates into they hopper?

Am I making any sense? thanks in advance.

You have to take the starshines out of the crates. Yes it's a pain in the @ss! That goes for all professions though, not only chef.

And because of the factory bug, all the sunburn made in the factory will come out with only one use per stack.

I make all my sunburns by hand, because a) I can reach an identical inventory efficiency(and once better resources spawn in, I can fit 8/9 per stack, so a much better efficiency). and b) I dont waste the resources on making single use stuff.

I cant wait till factories are fixed... it's my personal no1 concern now, but I understand some people really want better buffs more. Once factories are fixed I'm gonna be rich

what you could always do is make packs sunburn, may be like in one corner of your shop on the floor have a travel pack on the wall and label it "Sunburn 20 Pack-17k" or something and then sell the packs on your vender

I wouldn't make sunburn in a factory (wasted resources), but I make meds in a factory and you don't always have to handpack the crates. I find if you have more than one crate of each component, the factory will usually unpack for you.

I have successfully made 3 crates of meatlump with the soypro in factory crates. The key according to the Architect forums is to place the items in the ingredient hopper in the order they are listed on the schematic. left to right, top to bottom. But making them in a factory is very frustrating since you will have 25 stacks with one charge each. So if you can make Sunburns with more than one use per stack stay away from the factories.

I tell people if they want factory crates it will cost 8x more money for less product they usualy then dont want it in a create
