Crafting plays a pivotal role in your journey through the post-apocalyptic world of *Atomfall*. Whether you're looking to craft weapons for self-defense or recovery items to stay alive, you'll need to secure the relevant crafting recipes first. This guide will walk you through all the crafting recipe locations in the game, ensuring you're equipped to survive and thrive in the quarantined zone.
As you navigate the hazardous landscapes of *Atomfall*, crafting becomes essential for your survival. You'll frequently find yourself in need of items that aren't readily available, particularly in the more perilous regions. In *Atomfall*, crafting isn't just about having the right materials; it's about acquiring the necessary crafting recipes.
For example, before you can craft Bandages, you must first obtain the Bandage crafting recipe. Once you have it, navigate to your inventory, select the recipe, and unlock it permanently. Each recipe details the resources you need to gather or barter. With sufficient space in your inventory and the right resources, you can craft as many items as you need. Should your backpack be full, consider selling, consuming, or dropping items to free up space. Additionally, Pneumatic Tubes offer a convenient way to store extra items for later retrieval at any Pneumatic Tube location.
Below is a detailed list of all the crafting recipes available in *Atomfall*. Some recipes can be found in multiple locations or obtained through different methods. For instance, a trader might offer a recipe, while you might stumble upon it on a random corpse later. Recipes with multiple confirmed locations are noted below.
