Primitive+ 101s (How To and Uses)
Lately I've been seeing people requesting how to make this or that in the Primitive + TC, so I decided to help Ced out some by going through and putting a list together. If something isn't on the list, feel free to ask about it and I'll update the thread every other day or sooner. Again this list will start small simply because I'm not sure what people are having issues making etc.

------How To-----

Glass - 2 pearls + 5 crystal in the Forge

Brick - (Obsidian Pick needed to harvest stone nodes and metal nodes) Obs Pick v Stone nets you Claystone. Obs Pick v Metal nets you Limestone. 20 claystone and 10 limestone in the handmill gets you a bucket of clay. Next take the clay to the forge and heat it up; bam Bricks!

How to dry Tobacco/Barley/Wheat/Etc - Place the Tobacco(Insert previous) in a Preserving Hut (Might be bugged/missing as I don't see it in my engrams) with sparkpowder. It will dry overtime.

Bees - Honey (1 Queen Bee + 1 Drone Bee + 30 sec = 50 Workers. 5 Workers = 1 Honey(5min)) They need to be placed inside the Apiary. You gather bees by harvesting berries. Dinos can also grab them. (Next update should fix this)

Carbon and Steel - Carbon comes from Obsidian Nodes. (Use the Obsidian Pick on it). To make Steel Ingots, you take 3 Iron and 3 Carbon and place them in a forge!. (next update should fix carbon)

Salt - Crystal in the Handmill.

Sugar Press - To my understanding you just leave the item inside it and will work on its own. (Never messed with it so I can't confirm!)

-----Uses-----

Kibble/Cooking Rec. - While I won't go through the details of cooking kibble, simply because you can look them up via google.. I will mention that the cauldron (primitive+ item) can be used to cook Kibble and the normal Ark Cooking Rec. (More of a tip but it works!)

Fat - Fat is used to make organic oil on the campfire, bonfire, or grill. The oil is currently only used as a fuel source used in lamps. (I can't remember if it was ever changed to work on the Grill.)

----Beacons----

Seeds added through the TC/Mod should be found within beacons. (I think there was an issue with them in the 10/7 update, so waiting to check with Ced on the matter.)

Rice, Lettuce, Cashews, Wheat, Coffee,Tea, Sugar, Barley, Grapes, Tobacco, Latex Tree, Breadfruit Tree all come from different Beacon tiers. Now seems most seeds can also be harvested (Let me know if any on this list haven't been found in game!)

I just suggested that on the bugs forums when i ran across a few in game issues. You can find various recipes going back thru the update notes but im at a loss as to what to do with stuff like cashew milk etc... Rice and cooked chicken=makes chicken in rice in the bakers table, bread and cooked fish=fish fillets or something like that. cooked prime meat and i think its cabbage makes prime salad. Im sure there is more. Oh honey and dough in the oven makes honey loaves.

Malt is made from taking dry barley and mixing it with water in a cauldron. Malt is used explicitly for the creation of alcoholic beverages.
