Engineering Lab

The **Engineering Lab** is a gameplay mechanic in Evochron Legacy.

## Summary

As part of the secondary economic system, pilots can engage in the manufacturing of higher tier or rare products to sell to factions or other pilots for profit. These **Engineering Labs** can be found on planetary settlements or space stations by entering the station itself through the HUD.

## Procedure

Inside the lab the manufacturing process is split into a power source, an interface and a function. Each of these can be filled with up to 20 of any material in one or all of their four compartments to make a production template. To achieve this on limited inventory, a pilot can access a stations item storage for a fee.

Not all of these combinations are actual recipes. In fact it is easier to inquire new schematics from NPC or to find abandoned schematics during exploration. They offer a much better return in value than basic trading and several of the earlier missions.

Once a template has been supplied with material or a recipe guessed correctly, it can be manufactured at the station for a small fee. This fee is less - including the storage cost for items - if the station was build by the pilot or a license was bought. As such it is proposed to have a personal manufacturing hub to increase the profit margins.

## Known Recipes

All these recipes work as proposed and can be manually copied to the ingame template or gotten from their location for automatic addition to the recipe template.
