[Guide] Synthetics

Synthetics (Work in progress!)

Tired of bludgeoning cows to death for their meat and leather? Trapped on Mars but can't quite bring yourself to eat your only friend, Frank, the chicken? 🐔

We've got you covered. The Synthetics Module allows you to take harmless tissue samples from animals and grow them into various animal products using the Tissue Bioreactor and Tissue Scaffolder.

1. Make some Syringes. You'll use these to collect tissue samples by right-clicking an animal. Don't worry, they don't seem to mind.

2. Construct a Tissue Bioreactor. This machine requires water and power to function, and will turn your syringe of delicious animal tissue into a Sample

3. Now build a Tissue Scaffolder. The lower slot in this machine requires a Sample, while the upper-left slot takes a Plastic Tissue Scaffold item. This item shapes the sample into something resembling those familiar meats and leather. Leave the Sample to grow for a while and when it's done enjoy some guilt-free protein! Note that 1 Plastic Tissue Scaffold item is used per meat product, though the sample can be reused indefinitely.
