Progression
Mid-game duck mission sequence
01

Finish the Harold and Luis mission sequence

Reach the upper dark area, finish Harold's mission, rescue cooked Luis, carry him to the duck cult, and follow Walter's instruction at the Eternal Spinner.

02

Pick up the machine recipe

After Luis returns and speaks, check the floor beside the Eternal Spinner. Pick up the Electronics Press recipe paper before leaving.

03

Build the Electronics Press

Prepare 8 Piles of Screws, 20 Metal Ingots, and 2 Hamsters, then place the press near the Furnace so its inputs stay close.

04

Craft only what the next objective needs

Feed the press 1 Metal Ingot and 4 Electric Wood for each Battery. Keep metal available for other machines instead of filling storage early.

Failure branch

The recipe is visible but cannot be used

A visible Battery recipe does not mean the machine is unlocked. Return to the Eternal Spinner after the Luis sequence and look for the physical recipe paper. If the press cannot be built, recheck screws, ingots, and the two-Hamster requirement.

Completion signal

The Electronics Press produces one Battery

The route is complete when the press accepts 1 Metal Ingot and 4 Electric Wood and places a Battery in the output. Later mission objectives state how many more are needed.
