- This article is about Multi-Tool microchips. For the item used to unlock blueprints, see Blueprint microchip.
Microchips are equipable items that provide additional capabilities to the player.
Creation of Microchips is done at T1 Craft Station and/or
T2 Craft Station, although the T1 may only craft the simplest chips.
Each Microchip takes an additional equipment slot, and can improve (de)construction, navigation, mining speed, and/or grant the ability to toggle a torch. Use of an Exoskeletons is required to increase equipment capacity.
