The ribosome is one of the basic intracellular structures and the first building needed to automate crafting. Its main purpose is to synthesize proteins from aminoacids.
Craft Recipe
Use
You can set the recipe of the ribosome with the action key ('E' by default) or the context menu
You will need to use
pickers
oriented toward the ribosome to input items and oriented in the opposite direction for the output
Tips
Ribosomes store up to 5 times the quantity of inputs needed as well as 5 times the output product
You can set as many
pickers
you want as inputs or outputs. Note that for output, the ribosome will prioritize them in the order you place them
You can manually input items in the ribosome
Removing the ribosome with the
destroy tool
will scatter stored items around it
Switching recipe will destroy all stored items in the ribosome
Craftable items

Ribosomes are macromolecular machines, found within all cells, that perform biological protein synthesis. They consist of two major components: the small and large ribosomal subunit. Ribosomes uses messenger RNA to know in which order they will link amino acids together to form polypeptide chains. Even if ribosomes from other cells than the eukaryotes ones share similarities, showing a common ancestor, they display some difference in their structure. Thoses differences allows antibiotics to be able to kill bacteria by inhibiting their ribosomes while leaving human ribosomes unaffected.
