Reloading benches look very much like real-life reloading benches with a multi-stage press, a box of dies, and a bunch of other goodies.

Survival does not affect the crafting of ammunition at reloading benches. Repair affects the crafting of ammunition at reloading benches. Survival affects the crafting of things made from animal parts and plants: typically prepared food items, hides, poisons, and primitive chems (like Healing Powder).

First I'd like to note that when you, specifically, say "Fallout logic" it can be inferred to mean from context "no one has explained this" not "this cannot be explained".

It is not a random grab-bag of goofy stuff.

Yes, knowing what plants to combine to make a poison is covered by the same skill that determines if you know how to properly tan a gecko hide. This is in the same system where the same skill that allows you to repair a handgun allows you to repair a Tesla cannon and the same skill that allows you to use stimpaks effectively also covers basically every piece of human medical knowledge. SPECIAL skills are broad and abstracted.

Sounds positively yummy!

Perhaps too much to ask at this point, but will the Crafting support modders in our desire to add 8734018937410384 new items for crafting? I can just imagine how much stuff we could add..

Yes. The recipe/recipe type editors in GECK are extremely easy to use. You can create an enormous number of recipes very quickly. Additionally, launching the crafting interface is done with a parameterized (for recipe type, e.g. Campfire, Reloading Bench, Wacky Science Lab) scripting command, so you can make any activator or trigger launch the interface. You can also do it through conversation scripting, which is how Veronica's Scribe Assistant perk works.

So, is the "Wacky Science Lab" an actual game object?

Could mean that we can make chems? Rather than just generating them, does science govern a little something extra?

Good to contemplate.

Each individual recipe can have one skill requirement (e.g. Explosives 20), from one to six different item requirements of different quantities (no substitutions), and one or more item outputs of different quantities. You can also have display conditionals that must be met before the recipe appears at all (for example a special perk or a note added to the player).

No, "Wacky Science Lab" is a fictitious example. You could make a new recipe type called "Kiebler's Flippin' Sweet Science Station Supreme!!!" and then associate a bunch of recipes with it. When you launch a crafting interface that specifies "Kiebler's Flippin' Sweet Science Station Supreme!!!" it will only display recipes that are associated with that type. Any scripting interface can launch the crafting interface, so you could associate that type with a new activator, a line of dialogue, or a trigger of some sort.

Awesome, looks like CRAFT and CRAFT Helper are 2 more mods made obsolete But no conditionals.. are you saying a recipe can't be like "ANY alcoholic drink, plus scrap metal".. it would have to explicitly be like Vodka + Scrap metal?
