The Golden Factory Cart™ is a vehicle you craft by hand in the Equipment Workshop. One cart requires 15 Caterium Ingots, 4 Iron Rods, and 2 Rotors. Gather the full batch before starting, since all three ingredients are needed. Plan for it as a personal vehicle and keep the ingredients available for other production in mind when deciding how many carts to make.

Crafting tips

  • Set aside the full ingredient batch before opening the Workshop so you can see whether another cart fits your budget.
  • Caterium Ingots are an ingredient; the finished cart is not a world pickup.

Repeat, collect and use

Craft each additional cart in the Equipment Workshop using 15 Caterium Ingots, 4 Iron Rods, and 2 Rotors.

Common mistakes

  • Searching for a cart deposit or collectible instead of using the Equipment Workshop recipe.
  • Trying to route the ingredients into an Assembler when the recipe lists no automated machine.

When to stop or switch

Stop when you have the number of carts you intend to use or when the ingredients are needed for other production.
