worktable question

Do you need the basic worktable before you get the advanced one?

reason for asking is the only thing (ATM) I want to craft is an auto doc, but to do so would require something bigger than the combo unit can handle.

this is a small base used mostly for storage, but the autodoc would be a nice addition.

Hiya,
You can get whichever worktable you need at anytime. The more powerful the table, the more Control and Energy you need to run it, and the more prestige it costs to place it in your base. But once you are done using it to craft you can sell it back for full value.

Also, the Auto-Doc requires that you have earned it. And it costs prestige AND it requires continous Control and Energy. Once crafted, it will appear in your Personal Items, not in the base editor. Warning, Personal Items, once placed, can only ever be moved, if you delete the item, you will have to re-craft it. The Invention Salvage it requires to make it will not be returned. Wanted to give you a heads up about that since I learned the hard way.

Happy Crafting,
Red

ok, so to be clear... I craft the auto doc, it goes into personal items to be placed, I resell the worktable and then place the autodoc where I want it (permanently)... if so... perfect!

Right. You place it from 'Place Personal Items'. After that, if you need to move it, you do so from the base editor.

Also, keep in mind what redtornado pointed out: you have to EARN the Auto-Doc. It is linked to the first SG healing badge.
