    Version 1.4 fixes many bugs and no longer requires loose files. In addition, the following machines have been improved:
    -The auto-butcher should be largely compatible with mods which alter creature races. It also now works on unconscious or paralyzed creatures.
    -Armor forges use a different method to select pieces, which should have fewer compatibility issues than the previous method.
    -The inventory management brain also consolidates ammo and aid items
    -Component and object extractors now pull components in a random order, making it easier to get manufacturing started. They can also be set to pull items from linked workshops via a terminal, and can be set to output 1-4 items per cycle.

    This will likely be the final version of Manufacturing Extended unless serious bugs are identified. Enjoy!

      Hey there!
      First, thanks for the great mod you've done. I can't help myself but wonder how come Bethesda did not include any of your features in the vanilla version... it seems they add on some good ideas and wait for the community to make them great!
      So... I had a few requests.
      - Add another version of the auto-butcher using the Hopper device. It would make a lot of sense to me to drop huge creatures in this device instead of putting them on a conveyor belt that struggle to convey them. (I have to try the new release, but before 1.4 Far Harbor creatures could not be auto-butchered)
      - Add a snappable conveyor belt border/rim/ledge/edge/orwhateveryoucallit for the Intersection conveyor belt part. Right now I've found myself using conductors to prevent items to fall off.
      - Add a reversed Lift - i.e. a lift that goes downward. (if you can add a command via terminals to choose conveyors directions, it would be even more awesome)
      - Add a reversed Y section. Right now, it is 1 in / 2 out, but it can be useful to be able to build 2 in / 1 out version.
      - Add a (T) Store all junk function to the Recycler.

      Thanks again for all your hard work.
      Cyril.

      Linked Objekt Extractor works great with everything except with Junk, is it just me?

      EDIT: It seems that the Linked Extractor cant handle more then 2-3 Items.

      So there's no chance for a version that works around the workshop category bugs? Because right now I cannot use this as the items just flat out don't appear in my workshop thanks to that lovely bug that makes some categories not show up. Contraptions DLC in general doesn't do this, but there's a mod that works around that by injecting the contraptions items into existing categories. Said mod only works for the DLC itself, though.

      is 1.4 uploaded yet cause when i install it NMM claims its version 1.3

      EDIT: solved i downloaded the file a whole 2 minutes before the 1.4 file was uploaded.

      if you dont mind could you set version number on your files, it would make it alot easier to see which is which.

      Hey Kentington.

      I've been playing this mod for a while now, and I can't imagine my playthrough without it. You've done a great job so far, and I hope to see more from you. That said, I was playing around with this mod using the auto-butcher to "dispose of" some dead raiders. I normally take their loot, but leave things like the meat, and clothes as they are. After awhile, these leftover items stack up, and can be a bit of a nuisance. I bring this to you because you may be able to help other people with a similar problem. I was wondering if maybe you could make a machine that destroys items that pass through it. Maybe some type of Incinerator Machine? If you would at least consider this request, I would be most appreciative. Once more, Thank you for this amazing mod, and I hope you'll consider my request.

      Yours Sincerely,

      Hikingglint.

      You know you might want to consider making the brain a separate mod given how insanely useful it is. I use that basement living mod by fadingsignal and it got really slow with the loading screens coming and going there. With the brain, it's now as short as it should be. The brain is so useful, i think people would just want it and nothing else potentially! Just consider it.

      I'm having a similar issue, playing the X-Box One version of the game. Not sure if that's relevant or not, but it really ruins one of the main reasons I picked this mod up. (Ammo Plant being another.)

      @ KennyMcCormick315

      A way around the bug might be to add everything in this mod to its own menu and have a script inject it into its own category at the end of the main workshop menu when your game loads. It do not know how to do it but it might work. But this could cause issues as well and it is odd you are having issues when he appears to be using vanilla categories.

      The bug itself is often caused by mods that conflict and edit the FORMID lists. Mainly they edit the vanilla FORMID lists to add their categories without a script.

      PC Users:
      A way to fix it on your end if you are on PC is to grab FO4EDIT from the nexus, grab the FNVEdit Training Manual, and using them to resolve the conflict. The manual is very detailed on how to solve conflicts and search for conflicts. The last version of a FORMID List loaded is the version the game reads and it overwrites all the other versions added by mods. Usually resolving a conflict in FORMID lists is as simple as going to the top of the FORMID list, right clicking the blank space at the top of the list, selecting add to create a new "NULL - Null Reference [00000000]", dragging and dropping the missing references from the previous versions of the FORMID list to the last version. Each reference you will be adding to the last version of the list should go into a "NULL - Null Reference [00000000]" spot you created. You can also right click the FORMID list in the left column and select "copy as an override into" and select a <new file> in the box that pops up to save your changes to your custom patch. When closing FO4Edit only save your custom patch, do not save the other files if all your final changes are in your custom patch.

      TES5Edit is FNVEdit and FO4EDIT. It is just renamed so it knows which game it will edit.

      The mod that works around that by injecting the contraptions items into existing categories does not fix the issue.

      Hi great job, your Mod made the whole DLC worthwhile!

      A question about linked Extractors: My problem is that when I toggle the link on it keeps taking from the local workshop mostly and thus I barely get something from the other workshops. Am I overlooking something? If no then an additional toggle to exclusively use linked workshops would be great.

      Thank you

      As some have mentioned , the object extractor is very slow if used on junk items , was hoping for some improvements here to have it pull items faster. Also mentioned is the exclusion of the local workshop and just pull from the linked ones. This would make it possible to extract the base junk as well , as now it would pull them from the local as well and certain things are in the tens of thousands

      Ofc the last one doesnt really matter if object extractr is pulling it this slow from the workshops anways.

      For the rest VERY GREAT MOD , i love it so big thnx.

      can someone please tell me why my auto butcher wont show the items coming out? I have tried everything. It worked for a while but then quit. Please any help. It is just one of those things that gets under my skin. I have 250 plugins and 305 mods and tis is the only thing that does not work. The items are there but don't move down the conveyor to the collector. I even downloaded the mod that adds to this mod with the chems and new body part graphic and nothing. I uninstalled and reinstalled. Scrapped the old unit and made a new one. I will try any thing. Please help!!


      Thanks for the wonderful mod.

      Also I mod my friends game for him , he is just not bright enough to do it him self. Point is his butcher works and we HAVE NEARLY THE SAME LOAD OUT!


      If I broke it is there some console command to reactivate it to work again?

      While I'm pretty sure you've left it for abandoned, people seem to be reporting quite a few bugs with it.

      One I've noticed is that the component extractor needs to have the components in its inventory also excluded, because otherwise it'll just cycle the same 4 components over and over again. For example, if you have a component extractor set up to extract only steel with a workshop storage at the end (very basic setup) and you place 15 shipment of steels into your workshop, it'll extract the first one, but then won't touch the others because it'll keep "extracting" that pile of steel over and over again instead of extracting the other 14 shipments.

      May I suggest you separate the energy ammuniaction production into a new product machine similar as separated gunpowder and energy weapon forge? I think it is easier to manage component input source.

      If this is an abandoned mod, is there someone that you can give control to? It's too useful to NOT be there, but there are several badly broken things (power armor, lack of power cells, etc.) that it seems like someone should be working on it.

      Hey,
      Love the mod just had an issue and was wondering if I had to do something extra to get it to work or if it's just a bug because of how it loaded, the power armor forge wont let me create anything but the chest piece and I was just trying to see if I wasnt doing something right like I have four machines hooked up to one terminal, is that the problem? Should it be individually connected because I tried that and it didnt really help, any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

      Thanks.

      Having some issues with the terminals once it is hooked up to a very extensive factory. The framerate of the game seems to skip in my settlement (which is beyond the build limit). The frame stuttering is synched with the interval switch timer that is set in the terminal. The only fix is to remove the terminal from the circuit that all the machines are running on, otherwise when the factory is running the game framerate skips each time the interval switch goes off.

    Since it's been frequently requested:

    It is not currently possible to recycle weapons and armor through script commands - believe me, I've tried. The necessary functionality just isn't exposed to Papyrus. Should a future version of Fallout 4 Script Extender add the required functions, I will add this feature.

      is there anyway to add food option? (make EVER food in game and have it spawn in WS or something.. (always trying to find ways to make settlers more happy... )

      is there anyway to copy a said item even if its a mod and or fully modded? (i only ask so all my settlers can have shotguns they seem to work best with them but finding the right gun is painful...

      a new add on so to speek to gather MORE water then the base game can give us. i would love to see realish looking tubs and pumps like you would thing to collet water.... and filter it ect..

      Couldn't you just fake recycling? Like just destroy the item and output a pre-determined selection of items like the corpse butcher does? I mean, you'd have to hard code the list of items for every weapon and armor.

      Honestly, it sounds so simple that I wouldn't be surprised if you've already tried it or I'm speaking of an entirely different topic

      Damn, I was just coming to check if this was possible. Anyone figured out a way after 5 years or is it still not doable?

    Conveyor Workshop Storage doesn't store any objects - They just clog up the entrance and no going to workshop.

    They just get stuck inside the machine.

    Hiya, I really enjoy your mod. The issue is that the Power Armor Forge only makes torso armor. The other options default to a torso. I was wondering if that could be fixed, or if you could tell me how to fix it myself in the creation kit.

      Yeah, same problem here.

      Also can't seem to choose the armor made in the armor forge.  I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong but not sure what.

      In game mods i found "Manufacturing Extended - fix" mod which is this exact mod but taking away the armor forge from it, so just use vanilla.

    Is there a certain level you need to be in order to manufacture energy weapon ammo? It's not showing up on my terminal.

    Is there a Automatron patch for this mod?  I can't seem to be able to scrap the eyebots from that DLC.

    Can the Power Armor Forge potentially produce T-60 power armor, and if so, what are the requirements?

    Before I download this mod, how much ammo does it give you each time you craft?
