===Forgot to bring rubber?===

==== What is this tutorial? ====

So, this tutorial was made for the folks who made a ship, went to a [[grass]]-less planet and forgot to bring [[rubber]]

it is also useful if you want to learn how to make a [[Hydroponic]], [[AirSupply]], [[Pump]] or [[Container]] without the need of [[Rubber]]!!!!

Some parts of this tutorial can be skipped; if you ONLY want to know the steps to getting a [[Container]] without the need of rubber, go straight into the Steps section of this tutorial, and go to the first and second step to figure it out.

==== Situation ====

So, you've came to a [[barren]] (or any planet without [[grass]]) and you've completely forgot to bring [[rubber]], you've also forgotten to bring a [[hydroponic]] and you have no [[grass]] with you either, what will you do?

you can't craft a [[hydroponic]] because it needs 2 [[Container|containers]] to be crafted, so unless you brought a pair of containers, that wouldn't be an option

unless...

you see, you can actually craft a [[container]] without the need of [[rubber]], it's just not widely known, so, to be able to get a grass farm in a grassless planet you'll have to follow some steps, but before;

==== Materials needed ====

you'll need to get these materials before being able to get grass in such situation:

- [[Iron]] (to craft a hydroponic, and other iron components)

- [[Copper]] (to craft the necessary wires, coolers and power related components)

- [[Sulfur]] (this material is '''CRUCIAL''' for this method, I'll cover it up later, but also needed to craft a [[battery]] or [[PowerCell]] to power the [[Hydroponic]])

- Specific material cost (for nerds): 23 [[Iron]], 14 [[Copper]], 9 [[Sulfur]]

- Even MORE specific costs here: https://dpaste.org/GqFRe

==== Steps ====

You've now got the materials, nice, time to get to the actual guide;

[[File:MustardGasContainer.png|alt=What happens when you manually craft MustardGas|thumb|324x324px|What happens when you manually craft MustardGas]]

the first step will be to craft a [[Hydroponic]]. To do this, you'll need to craft 14 [[Wire|wires]] and then craft 2 [[Cooler|coolers]] and you'll need 20 [[iron]] (10 wires, 2 coolers, 20 iron); after this, you'll need to get 2 containers, to do this, you need to craft [[MustardGas]] with 3 [[sulfur]], whenever you craft [[MustardGas]] manually, a [[MustardGas]] [[container]] will spawn as you can see in the image on your right.

You then have to craft yet a second mustard gas container, that way, you'll now have 2 [[MustardGas]] [[Container|Containers]], and now you can craft a [[Hydroponic]] (you can use containers with liquids/gasses as crafting components, meanwhile they're '''NOT locked''')

You now have a Hydroponic, nice, now you need to get [[Water]] so you can get [[Grass]] from the hydroponic;

to do this you'll need another container, so, again, craft [[MustardGas]]; you'll now need to use the [[Model Loader]] (the N menu In-game) to load in an empty container you can place [[Water]] inside of.

now, to get water, you can either use a [[melter]] and melt [[ice]] from a [[bin]] supplied by an ice [[extractor]], use a [[pump]] if you're near an ocean or even just use a [[flint]] and ice/[[snow]], however you've gotten water inside your container, you now just need to do the following:

connect your water container to your [[hydroponic]], attach an empty [[bin]] to your hydroponic to store the [[grass]], IMPORTANT: configure your [[hydroponic]] so it harvests [[grass]] since it defaults to harvesting [[wood]] and then power up the hydroponic by using any form of power at your disposal, can be a [[battery]] if you don't have any means of power yet.

Congratulations! You've now gotten grass in a planet devoid of life!!

==== Possible issues ====

If you do not have access to the [[Model Builder]] and by that reason you can't empty the [[MustardGas]] [[Container]], you can load in this link inside the Model Loader I've made myself

https://dpaste.org/rDqbs/raw (it's just an empty container with default size)
