wow really you need a assemble machine to craft circuit boards but you cant even craft a assemble machine when your first starting out there for you cant craft a lab or a pump to get power going you need to rethink about what your doing and test it out before adding or changing things

You can craft the starter circuit boards by hand you only need wood and copper

No you cant i tryed im in sandbox mode and is telling me ( This item can not be hand crafted )

ok now i tried it in a normal game with a avatar and it works fine but you cant do it in Sandbox mode this needs to be fixed

Didn't know you could program a mod to do things differently in normal game vs sandbox game.

that is a known issue that currently can't be fixed. Well, technocally it can, but it means the new electronics assembling machine won't work.
So my choice was either, allow sandbox mode to work, or have the electronics assembling machine.

Hopefully 0.13 will add the abillity to fix this issue.
