Crafting -- Asset Checkers

beYou contains a wealth of creative crafting opportunities to help enhance your roleplay experience. Because of this, there are several crafting plans for sale in the form of blueprints and/or recipes, depending on what you’re crafting.

To help see what items are needed ahead of time, beYou has released different tools to help with this called asset checkers. The asset checkers will access the list of needed materials and compare them to what is in your assets. Then it will display that list in your nearby chat so you can see not only what you have, but also what you need.

***Disclaimer***: While we do try to keep these pages up to date, there will be times that the requirement pages aren't going to match its corresponding asset checker (be it due to an update, change in information or addition/deletion of items). To ensure you have the most accurate and up-to-date requirements for every piece of equipment, it is always best to purchase an asset checker at the main beYou Sim.

## Restrictions/Requirements

* No beYou hud required.
* No level requirement.
* Anyone can use a rezzed asset checker.

### Specialty Asset Checkers

While these aren't labeled as asset checkers, these also serve the same purpose as the asset checkers above:

* beYou Pharmacy Recipe Checkers - These recipe checkers are only able to be seen and controlled by the owner of these items. They are free at the main beYou Sim.
* beYou Family Recipe Box - anyone can use this and it will only show the owner of the box's assets for each recipe. You can see the requirements for each beYou cooking recipe by visiting the Full Recipe List and clicking on a recipe in the table. It will take you to that recipe's wiki page. This can be purchased from the main beYou Sim in the recipes area.

## Using Asset Checkers

You will see the following menu options when you click your asset checker:

* Find Plans - Rez assets checker for Workbench Plans.
* Close - Exit Menu
* Clear - Delete anything rezzed

To Find Plans, do the following:

1. Click the asset checker.
2. Choose “Find Plans”.  A list of available plans will show in the menu. Choose one.
3. On choosing which plan you are trying to build, you may receive version choices (like color or metal options).  Choose one.
4. Once you’ve selected the plan and the version of the plan that you’d like, it will rezz the blueprint card above the device. At this point you can either take the rezzed plan into your inventory and attach as a HUD then click it. Or you can simply click it and it will display your needed materials in nearby chat.
5. IMPORTANT: Rezzed plans can not be taken by anyone but the owner of the asset checker and they can not be transferred.
6. Once finished, you can either click clear, which will delete any rezzed blueprint cards or you can choose close to exit the menu.

After about a minute, the asset checker will reset and be ready to use.
