Description

The Fabricator is an advanced machine used to manufacture most of the craftable items in the game. It largely fills the role of the Autolathe, Electronics Printer, Hydraulic Pipe Bender and Tool Manufactory.

Usage

In order to use the fabricator, you will need to set up a Computer with a Motherboard (Manufacturing) and connect it to the fabricator's data port. You can then use the manufacturing interface in order to request manufacturing jobs from the fabricator. You can choose the quantity of each item you want to build and set up a queue of items to be manufactured. If the fabricator is unable to finish an item, it will idle until it is able to continue (materials are added or power is resumed).

Data Network Properties

These are all Data Network properties of this device.

Data Parameters

These are all parameters, that can be written to with a Logic Writer or a Batch Writer. The outputs are listed in the order a Logic Writer's "VAR" setting cycles through them.

Parameter Name	Data Type	Description
Open	Boolean	Opens the Fabricator, when set to 1. Closes it, when set to 0.
Activate	Boolean	Activates the Fabricator, when set to 1. Deactivates it, when set to 0.
Lock	Boolean	Locks the Fabricator, when set to 1. Unlocks it, when set to 0.
On	Boolean	Turns the Fabricator on, when set to 1. Turns it off, when set to 0.

Data Outputs

These are all parameters, that can be read with a Logic Reader. The outputs are listed in the order a Logic Reader's "VAR" setting cycles through them.

Output Name	Data Type	Description
Power	Boolean	Returns whether the Fabricator is turned on and receives power. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
Open	Boolean	Returns whether the Fabricator is open. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
Error	Boolean	Returns whether the Fabricator is flashing an error. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
Activate	Boolean	Returns whether the Fabricator is active. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
Lock	Boolean	Returns whether the Fabricator is locked. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
Reagents	Float	The amount of reagent contents in the Fabricator in grams.
On	Boolean	Returns whether the Fabricator is turned on. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
ImportQuantity	(Unknown)	(Unknown)
ImportSlotOccupant	Boolean	Returns whether there is something in the import slot of the Fabricator. (0 for no, 1 for yes) (Only turns 1 briefly, when something is inserted in the Fabricator)
ExportQuantity	Integer	Returns the amount of items in the export slot of the Fabricator. The export slot also encompasses whatever is currently being fabricated in the Fabricator.
ExportSlotOccupant	Boolean	Returns whether the export slot of the Fabricator holds an item. The export slot also encompasses whatever is currently being fabricated in the Fabricator.
RequiredPower	Integer	The amount of power, currently needed by the Fabricator, in watts.

Bugs

• If the Fabricator is deconstructed while fabricating an item, the complete item will be left behind along with any other reagents in the Fabricator.
• If the Fabricator is opened while fabricating an item (paused and unpaused), it will not drop any reagents it holds.
