The wire thing is so annoying. It's not actually anything you craft, which I found out after looking for it in my menu for about 15 minutes and finding a wiki.

Dude...I was about to go crazy over a damn wire. Had I not accidentally done it I have no idea how much longer it would have taken without looking it up.

It does seem fairly "tacked on."

I was able to move some turrets last night because I accidentally faced them the wrong way.

What do you mean? I am playing on ps4 but when I select an item to place I have free movement with the item out (except I can't fly obviously)

So it just saves it as the item itself or the raw materials? I transferred all of my junk in my inventory to the workshop and wasn't sure what happened with it after that. Do I go to the workshop inventory and scrap it from there?


I'm pretty sure it stores it as the item itself. For example, if you build too much of something on accident, you can just store it for later use.

Right, but like I said earlier, I need copper and a lot of the phones I find aren't in areas where I can "scrap" it. So that's why I'm wondering if I can scrap it once it's transferred over. I've stored a generator for later use. I'm curious about the looted items I pick up.

Once you have the item you can transfer it to your workshop and the components will become available to use....I think.


That sounds ideal, but I want to say the transferred items still show up in the workshop inventory, which leads me to believe you still have to do the extra step to get the materials.

i think it breaks down the materials you need automatically.

I think Guns and armor, you need to scrap if you want the materials.

Junk is scrapped as needed by the workbench. You just need to transfer all junk to workbench and as you need certain things, the bench will scrap.

This is what I thought.

I collected a bunch of items with circuitry and copper because I had zero. I eventually transferred everything into a workshop and then had like 30 of each. I did no manual scrapping whatsoever.

Probably because your whiny arse tried too hard to re-map your keys and now you can't do crap.

I'm thinking this may have something to do with it, but it would be poor design now my whiny arse.

So you're saying once you have an item out, you can't move around?

For every item? Because I've put down a generator, water pump, and some carrots and walked around with them until I found the right spot to put them.

I only noticed it building the shack and beds, but I din't think I tried to move while placing food, water pumps, turrets, etc.

I was able to move around with beds as well. Maybe it's a setting? Weird.
