Mistake Detected: You haven't built a research table on your Raft yet, or you're like us and a little confused by this thing. Don't worry, in this guide, we present you everything you need:

  • How do you use a research table for blueprints?
  • How do you use the research table to unlock new items?
  • What materials do you need to unlock items on the table?

How to properly use the research table in Raft

How do you build the table? To build a research table, all you need are wooden planks and scrap metal. Here is the recipe:

  • 14x wooden planks
  • 2x scrap

You should place your table in the center of your raft, not on the edge. Simply as a precautionary measure, so that the shark Bruce does not chew it off the edge of your raft.

Personal tip: There is no search function in the crafting menu, the table and many other stations can be found in "Other".

How do you use the research table for recipes? You can't really do much wrong when using the table: You put a raw material -- for example, wooden planks -- into the table and click on "explore". Now, the research table will automatically show you all recipes that contain wood planks. That is all items that require wood planks as a building material. You can also see which resources you still need to research to unlock the crafting recipe. Once you have researched all the resources for the recipe, just click on the item in the list on the right and select "learn".

In this menu you click on "Learn".

How can you research blueprints? Much like tools, weapons, etc., you can also learn blueprints. During the story, you will receive a receiver and an antenna in the form of a blueprint. Just put them in the research table on your raft and click on research. You'll have unlocked these items without any resources.
