Prototype Workbench Upgrade
The Prototype Workbench Upgrade is a deployable augmentation medium that allows players to directly research any item they want on their applicable workbench without going down the whole tech tree, at the cost of twice the Scrap and a 10% chance to fail, on any Workbench on which it is deployed. It appears on the workbench as one of the old 1986 Macintosh Plus desktop computers and gave this writer instant nostalgia and indigestion.
Modes of Acquisition
- Crafting: Not currently craftable
- Loot Sources: Currently found in the green military loot crate tables.
- Research: Cannot be learned via Research Tables.
- Purchase: Cannot be bought in-game from NPC vendors. May be purchased from applicable player shops.
- Console Access: Spawnable via F1 console on servers with appropriate permissions.
Usage & Functionality
Workbench augmentations are individual, solitary effects that cannot be stacked within the workbench itself, i.e., only one of each at any time. They were added as optional features to improve craft time, increase base comfort, or potentially reduce crafting costs, all while enhancing base appearance and vibe.
