When I was crafting today, I reallized that I now have to option to make a factory schema. I was curious if I can craft things in the factory. So I made a schema for a painting kit and dropped it into my factory. Also the needed resources and turned it on.
It made aready 31 items and is still working. I figured out, that for ship components only upgrades show the option for the factory schema. So it seems that we have a partial factory support. I did not try it with component upgrade, but will make a test run soon.
Maybe this is already old news but I just want to inform you about it.
I don't think that it is a bug or an exploit, I'm using here. Because I use the same way as for any other crafting profession too.

We've always been able to make paint kits and other kits, plus missiles in the factories.

From the earliest point in beta that I was involved, shipwrights have always had factory support for everything except chassis and components. This includes component analysis kits, paint kits, texture kits, all repair kits, and all upgrades.

Yup. There was an outcry both for and against allowing SWsto use factories for all the stuff we can make. The happy medium was to allow us to factory everything but chassis and components. Which is fine with me...but not fine with everyone I guess.

well.. Everytime I heard the loud cry for factory support, I thought we have 100% none. If I had knew that earlier (looks at the blisters on his fingers only from crafting painting and texture kits) *sigh*..

There is still a bug running around, not sure if it hits everytime but some have lost there factory maded paint kits. so,might only want to throw in a small amount of resources to make sure the output hopper doesn't eat them and never give them back.
haven't experienced it, but then again, i am slowly grinding SW so i am not at a point of using factories yet.
