Basic Packaging Machine

Description

"The Xigo Cannifier requires Empty Can and cooked food to create long-lasting, easily stored sustenance. Note that the Cannifier must be bolted to a Powered Bench for power, and only accepts cooked food and tin cans." — Stationpedia

It has two item slots. The top is the input slot. The central one is the output slot. Must be attached to a Powered Bench by using a Wrench.

Usage

You should not put anything on the output slot. Because Empty can and food items are considered input, both go into the top slot.

If the machine's content corresponds to a recipe, looking at the input slot will display the resulting product's name. The machine should then be closed with the handle and activated in any order (the switch must be green). It will then produce a can of food after a few seconds.

Changes

  1. Cans are no longer needed but using a can will result in one steel being placed into the packer
  2. Cooked food no longer used all ingredients are now raw
  3. The recipe requests Oil and thus may be able to use an oil other than Soy Oil at some point ?
