workbench on player stations?

Post by Vertigo 7 »

I have an area on my stations where a workbench is on NPC stations, but no workbench. Is there a specific module i need to have it spawn, if it's possible? I have s/m and L equipment docks.

For clarity's sake, I'm talking about the crafting jobbie where you make and install mods for ships

I think it has to do with this:

There are some "ship mod" researches available at the PHQ. I think you gotta complete those research, and then (I guess) undock/redock, and then the workbench will appear.

Haven't tested this myself, since I'm using a mod and now the PHQ is somewhere far away (I havent found it yet but it exists), but this explanation is quite convincing.
The future awaits.

For example:

You need to build a Wharf/Shipyard. The workbench is placed in these stations. I don't remember finding any workbench in equipment docs in my game.
