Hello everyone,

I am new and been playing around in the 'god mode / sandbox' and for the life of me I cant understand why even with all my research unlocked from the start I cannot build all the items. I cant even see the rocket silo in the craft menu. What am I missing or have these purposely been left out?

Thanks in advance

Some things need to be built in an assembling machine, or in a chemical plant.
There is no way you can craft by hand motors, sulfur, petroleum gas, ...

Thanks for the reply

I understand that you need to build some of the components in various buildings of which I am doing, however I am not sure where to even start preparing for building a rocket silo or any other advanced research which are all unlocked.

I have attached screenshots to help

Unlocked silo for example:

Production building section:

Is there something I need to build first before these other buildings unlock etc?

The silo is in the "combat" tab.
