Crystal Crafting Items

Players can use Crystal items as crafting materials for items that can use crystals as an ingredient. You can set this item to be required with another item to unlock requirements for devices like the Conditional Button.

Crystal items are:

• Quartz Crystal

• Rainbow Crystal

• Shadowshard Crystal

• Sunbeam Crystal

Use the devices like Conditional Button and Item Spawner to create the system of crafting.

You could pair Crystal items with Blast Powder items as materials needed to craft weapons or another item like the Boogie Bomb.

To do so, you will need to set the Conditional Button's setting Key Items Required to 2 and pair the device with an Item Granter to grant the usable item.

You can also blend items with props of similar themes from the Galleries and Prefabs tab.

This Galleries prop can be found in the Volcanic Rock Gallery.

For example, you can blend crystal items with rocks from the Galleries tab to fully immerse players onto your island.

To create the process of crafting, you will need to either spawn items onto your map with the Item Spawner or grant them to players with Item Granter.

Players can collect these items to exchange for usable items through devices like Conditional Button, which consumes equipped items. They can also use these items to craft other items that will build up to a larger item.

Finding and Placing Items

1. From Build mode, press the Tab key, then click CREATIVE on the top navigation bar to select the CREATIVE inventory screen if not already displayed.

2. Click the CONSUMABLES tab.

3. Scroll to find and select the item, use the Search box to look up the item by name, or check the list of relevant Categories specific to the item you're looking for to filter the view.

4. Click the item, then click either EQUIP or ADD TO CHEST.

Clicking EQUIP will add the item to your Equipment bar. (When you're back in Create mode, you can view any items you've equipped by pressing the F key.)

From the CHEST tab, you can select either CREATE CHEST or CREATE LLAMA to store the items in a Chest or a Llama for use in-game.

Clicking EQUIP will add the item to your Resources bar. (When you're back in Create mode, you can view items in your Resources bar by pressing the Tab key and selecting Play)

You may want to offer an item bundle to players through a chest or llama. Selecting Add To Chest will add the item to the Chest tab. Each time you click it, the item count will increase by one, shown in a yellow box on the Chest tab.

From the Chest tab, you can select either Create Chest or Create Llama to store the items in a Chest or a Llama for use in-game.

You can add up to fifteen items to the Chest tab. When it’s full, the Add To Chest tab will disappear. To add more items, you first have to remove items from the Chest tab.

Managing Items

You can manage these items when you are in Play inventory. To access the Play inventory screen, press Tab and click Play in the top navigation bar. In the PLAY inventory, you can create or split item stacks, or remove them entirely from your Equipment bar.

Instead of dropping these items on the ground, it's best to grant them to players by using item-granting devices like the Item Spawner.

You cannot reposition or copy items with the phone tool. To delete an item from your inventory in Create mode, you will have to select either Respawn or Back To Hub from the Menu. When you do this, your inventory clears.

Registering Crafting Items to a Device

Click image to enlarge.

You can drop items directly onto devices that can either hold or grant items. Above shows the Conditional Button, which holds two crafting items and an Item Granter that holds one usable item.

This pair of devices can be set up for players to exchange Blast Powder and Rainbow Crystals for a Boogie Bomb. To do so, these items must first be registered to the devices that will hold the information.

To register items to a device, you must stand directly on or immediately beside the device.

To register an item for this kind of device, follow the steps below. (You can also watch a video tutorial that shows you how to register items, for crafting or other in-game use.)

1. In the CREATIVE inventory, find the equipment and items you want to register with a device and equip them.

2. In Create mode, stand directly beside the device that will register the item.

3. Press the Tab key to open the PLAY inventory screen.

4. Click the item, then press either Z or X to split or drop the item. You can also drag the item to the side until a backpack icon appears.

The compatible device will automatically register the dropped item.

Compatible devices that can hold items are:

• Vending Machine

• Team Settings & Inventory

• Class Designer

• Capture Item Spawner

• Item Granter

• Item Spawner

• Conditional Button

• Elimination Manager

• Item Remover

Use these devices to set up your own system for granting and spawning items onto your island.
