Category:Modules

Modules are individual machines, workbenches, or furniture with a specific function, built inside workshops. Modules allow colonists to complete workshop assignments or perform specific functions inside a particular workshop; a Carpentry Workbench is needed to process Logs into Planks inside a Carpentry Workshop, for example, and cots are furniture necessary to allow sleep.

Most modules will only function inside their intended Workshops, although they may be attached to any building, and require one colonist to operate - modules constructed in inappropriate buildings will never be used. Thus, a Carpentry Workshop must have two Carpentry Workbenches to produces two units of Planks, simultaneously. Modules can be placed either during Workshop blueprinting, or attached after that building has been erected. Modules may be rotated to face four different orientations. A green circle indicates the location a colonist must stand to operate the module - this space must be unobstructed, or it will not be possible to use the module.
