Look like can't do that anymore:
Need 40 Science pack 1 which need 1 gear + 1 cooper plate (2 per each) = 80 slot
Lab: 75 slot (just tried to build it in a new game)
Well... can't do that anymore...

You can do it with normal recipe and tech costs, it works out to an absolute minimum of 106 crafts iirc. With expensive recipes or tech costs, you're SoL.

First you should get automation (1), which gives you access to the first assembly machine. This is only 10 science packs, so either you're doing it wrong or you bumped up costs, in which case it is impossible. If you want you can post in ideas and suggestions that the amount of crafts allowed should scale with recipe difficulty and normal/expensive modes.

If you're playing normal, and not expensive recipes, you can do it.

It is more than previous versions....

0.12-0.14 it was a min of 100 crafts... now 106... so 3 less pickaxes (which makes startup really really slow)

and yes I did dig back through reddit to see how far back it was 100 items min.


I would suggest increasing the minimum to 117. Or decreasing it to 106

I have completed the achievement on 0.15 in 106 crafts, so I can confirm it is definitely possible on normal recipes! Katherine of Sky started a new YouTube play through on getting this achievement recently, so if you want a few pointers, check it out.

[Koub] Merged into the 0.15 lazy bastard topic.
BTW : we're now on 0.17, and this is still achievable.
