Crafting

Crafting is an in-game mechanic that allows players to craft or make Items and Structures. This is done by selecting an item or structure to be crafted in one of the 16 crafting tabs (including DLCs and Wickerbottom's Books tab.). Provided the player has sufficient materials in their inventory and, if necessary, has unlocked the item recipe, they will receive 1 or more of the crafted item. Below are the crafting tables for the different game modes available. The availability of crafting recipes are further affected by game version and options as follows:

• Accomploshrine is only available in the console version of Don't Starve.
• Old Bell, End Table, Scaled Furnace, Bundling Wrap, Blue, Green and Red Funcap, Mushlight and Glowcap, Fashion Goggles and Desert Goggles, Potted Succulent and The Lazy Deserter are only available to craft after acquiring and learning their respective Blueprints.
• Seaworthy is only available when Don't Starve: Shipwrecked DLC is installed and base game or Don't Starve: Reign of Giants saved game is made compatible with Shipwrecked.
• Battle Spear, Battle Helm and Spider Eggs are craftable in Shipwrecked only if Reign of Giants is installed. Otherwise Wigfrid and Webber, the characters that are required to craft these items are inaccessible, making the recipes also inaccessible.

Trivia

• Prior to the Hungry for your Hunger update, the Shadow Manipulator was capable of replacing both the Science Machine and the Alchemy Engine, allowing the player to destroy the lower tier prototyping machines as they upgraded. The new game model created 2 separate avenues of Crafting where the Alchemy Engine can prototype all of the Science Machine recipes, and the Shadow Manipulator can prototype all of the recipes that the Prestihatitator can. Magic and Science are the different routes. The magic crafting devices can no longer prototype any of the science recipes, meaning the player will need to have at least 2 prototyping machines on hand until all the recipes are unlocked.
