Crafting

Overview

The crafting system allows players to use a finite quantity of saga points to make clothing, weapons, armor, and electronics for use in the game. It is also the method of creating the Dominion items to engage in larger scale operations.

First Things First

+items: Lists crafting categories.

+items <category>: Lists the craftable items in that category.

+consider <item>: Lists the details of the specified object, including the cost of saga points, the skills you'll need, the equipment, and the components. You must type the full name of the item.

+einfo <item>: Displays vital statistics of an item, such as a gun's damage output.

Equipment

You can get basic equipment from a shop in the tradeport in Comorro Station, or purchase it from PCs (player characters). Most equipment must be made or purchased from other PCs.

Components

Nodes

Components are gleaned from resource nodes on the grid. Publicly (ICly) known nodes are:

• Textile Potential Node: In the Rural Outskirts area of Aureus on Pyracan.
• Mineral Potential Node: In the volcano on Fortrain. (This also has a Toxic Environment Node, necessary for getting Polydenum.)
• Chemical Potential Node: In the Waste Management chamber of Comorro Station.
• Timber Potential Node: In Triumverate Park on Hekayt Prime.

Making the Item

Once you have all of the equipment and components you need in your inventory or that room, type +craft <item> to create the item. This will expend the components (but not the equipment), and place the item in the room. Use +get <item> to pick it up.

Character Inventory

+inv: This command shows what's in your inventory.

+items: Lists craftable items.

+look (item number): This lets you look at a specific virtual object in the room or in your +inventory.

+get (item): Picks up an item in the room.

+give (item) to (player name): Gives an item to a player.

+show (item) to (player): Shows an item's description to a player.

+drop (item): Drops an item.

+equip (item): Equips an item.
