Autolathe

An autolathe is a fabricator of tools and materials. It must be filled with a certain amount of metal or glass before being able to create these items, and it can also break down these items into glass and metal if needed.

To feed items into the autolathe, click on it with a printed item.

This is how the Autolathe looks like!

You can construct an autolathe as described in the Guide to Advanced Construction, or find it in cargo, already built!

It's parts can be upgraded to reduce the prices of items by half with every part level.

Explanation:
Science Department can copy some designs to the autolathe with usage of design disks. Only items made out of metal and glass can be copied. To do so, first import design from RnD console to the disk, then insert it into an autolathe.
In addition, Free Golems start with a Golem Creation Disk, that lets them create more of their kind.

Hacking

In order to modify the Autolathe:

1. Use a Screwdriver to expose the wiring.
2. Hack using a Multitool or Wirecutters.
3. Use a Screwdriver to hide the wires again when done.

Wire	Effects	Pulsing	Cutting	Mending	Finding the Wire
Hacked Production (Blue Light)	Enables more items to be built at the autolathe.	Toggles hacked production for up to 5 seconds. Toggles the Blue Light.	Enables hacked production.	Disables hacked production.	Pulse / Cut wires until the Blue light changes.
Shock / Electrify (Green Light)	Delivers an electrical shock to anyone who touches the lathe.	Toggles shock mode for up to 5 seconds. Toggles the Green Light.	Will shock anyone using the lathe until repaired.	Returns normal operation.	Pulse / Cut wires until the Green light changes.
Disable (Red Light)	Disables the Autolathe, preventing anyone from building anything.	Toggles Disabled mode for up to 5 seconds. Toggles the Red Light.	Disables the autolathe until repaired.	Returns the autolathe to normal function.	Pulse / Cut wires until the Red light changes.
Dud Wires	The remaining wires on the board are duds and have no effect.	None	None	None	Any wire that does not change the status lights

Contraband

Unlocked by hacking autolathe production wire.
