Crafting Setup

Workorders or Craft?

Training any of the crafts can be achieved with lich through workorders.lic or craft.lic. In most cases craft.lic is more time effective but will cost coin where workorders.lic will receive a small payment for turning in completed workorders to the various society masters. Other crafting scripts exist but they are more for making specific items than everyday training.

To train with craft, you can use ;craft in a before/after or simply omit the train_workorders discipline.

To train with workorders, you need to specify each discipline. Below are the recommended (i.e. easiest and best supported) options. It is also suggested that you do not learn any techniques at early ranks to ensure there are viable workorder recipes to accept. Many items with unwieldy materials are not supported for workorders. For this reason, weaponsmithing, tinkering, and carving in particular are not suggested for training purposes.

Tools

Discipline Book: If you are using craft.lic you only need the appropriate discipline book such as a book of master tailoring instructions or similiar according to your skill, budget, and type of crafting.

Logbook: If you are using workorders you additionally need a logbook such as an engineering work order logbook. There will be one for each skill. Remember to RUB it to make it yours.

Container: You will need to specify where to keep/get your crafting supplies otherwise the system defaults to backpack. Additionally clerics may find it useful to list crafting items in contain due to interference between holy oil and forging oil.

crafting_container: backpack

# list of items to only grab from crafting_container, aka - oil for forging
crafting_items_in_container:
- oil

Crafting Rooms: If you have all the tools required for your chosen skill, it is highly advisable to set crafting rooms to free up public rooms for those less fortunate and potential avoid those of stick-fingered persuasions. The only two exceptions are forging for obvious reasons and enchanting if you don't have your own brazier. (Getting your own brazier is enormously helpful.) It is also possible to use anchors to make it easy to update all the rooms with one edit.

Do not set your safe_room to somewhere with heavy traffic. It is very bad manners to craft spam a room while people are trying to socialize.

safe_room: &safe_room 8250
engineering_room: *safe_room
outfitting_room: *safe_room
alchemy_room: *safe_room
enchanting_room: *safe_room

Outfitting: Outfitting is arguably the easiest to train from 0 to around 450 because it can be done with only knitting needles and yarn. After that you will need the optional tools listed in your -setup.yaml that are commented out below.

outfitting_tools:
- knitting needle
#- sewing needle
#- slickstone
#- yardstick
#- scissor

Engineering: Engineering is both practical and well supported. Shaping is the preferred discipline due to tinkering requiring a long list tools or materials and carving requires heavy stones. If you really must use tinkering or carving, visit base.yaml and search for tinkering_tools or carving_tools for the list additional items required.

shaping_tools:
- carving knife
- shaper
- drawknife
- rasp
- clamps

Forging: Forging is by far the most restrictive of all crafts as it is time consuming and limited to locations with forges and/or crucibles. Blacksmithing is the preferred discipline for workorders because of the simplicity of the items. Weaponsmithing requires more parts and large quantities of metal. Armorsmithing is not supported. These tools are also large and heavy.

forging_tools:
- diagonal-peen hammer    #many weapons are also hammers so be very specific on the adjective
- tong 
- bellow
- shovel

Remedies: Remedies are the blacksheep of the lich crafting family. They are supported but minimally so. Only recipes with ingredients that can be bought will be made. (There are plans to update but it is a complicated project.)

alchemy_tools:
- mortar
- pestle
- bowl
- mixing stick
- sieve

Enchanting: Artificing is the only discipline currently live so it is the only option. Only recipes with ingredients that can be bought will be made. Sigil books or player-supplied base items are not currently an option. Public braziers often have incomplete projects on them and it is highly recommended to get your own enchanted brazier for use in your enchanting_room to avoid hangups and frustration.

For your first time use, be sure to study rod which tells you how much potency it can be set to. Followed by adjust rod to <max number from study> followed by turn rod

>study my rod
This appears to be a tool used with enchanting.  A loose ring fitted around the handle indicates the device's charge level, and allows for adjusting it up or down.
You think the device's charge level may be adjusted by ADJUST ROD TO a number between one and one hundred.
The level must then be locked in by TURNing the rod.  Finally, the enchanter must WAVE the rod at the item being enchanted to cast an imbuement upon it.
This rod has a maximum effective mana adjustment of 57, and is currently set to 1.
>stow right
You put your rod in your pelt backpack.
>adjust rod to 57
You push down on the ring and adjust the rod's potency level to 57.
Roundtime: 16 sec.
R>turn rod
You grab the rod's adjustment ring and slowly latch it into place. The rod is now ready to imbue a target enchantment.
Roundtime: 9 sec.

Set up your yaml. It is much easier to get this going by buying crafted items from another player for the below.

train_workorders:
- Artificing

enchanting_tools:
- small brazier
- augmenting loop
- precise burin
- imbuement rod
#- fount   #not necessary as the scripts will source but you can get higher quality. If it's just for workorders, leave this as is unless you know better.

If your yaml looks like the above, and you have the equipment (replacing with the items in your inventory...) and you have adjusted/turned your rod. You are now ready to run ;workorders artificing I recommend watching it go the first time to catch any errors.

Toolbelts: Toolbelts are also supported. This setup is in addition to the the lists above. These settings let various scripts know how to find and repair the tools, not actually use them.

  name: blacksmithing toolbelt

    - bellows

    - sieve
enchanting_belt:
    name: enchant toolbelt
  items:
    - burin
    - fey-bone rod
    - loop
    #- brazier

Tool Repair: If you are using workorders, tools will be repaired at the end of every order. If you are using craft, you are responsible for your own repairs. The easiest way to accomplish this is to add them to your gear: list with the rest of your armor and weapons to be repaired by the appropriate leather or metal repairman. If using toolbelts, be sure to list the :tie_to: belt.

Training Magic While Crafting: Training magics between crafting activities is possible using high prepare amounts. Do not add cambrinth: charges because using harnesss or cambrinth will cause interference. These spells are used in other scripts where possible, most notably during outdoorsmanship.
