The Deconstructor can be crafted at the Advanced Constructor. It can only be placed on a base.
It automatically pulls items from the Input and breaks them down into building components similar to what was required to craft the deconstructed item.
NOTES and TIPS
- WARNING: The resulting components of deconstructing an item is close to what was needed to build the original item. But there are times the deconstruction of an item will not give the proper components. (Example: Deconstructing a Heavy Window resulted in 12x Steel Plate, 15x Glass Plate, 4x Santhium Ingot instead of 10x Steel Plate, 15x Glass Plate, 8x Hardened Steel Plate).
- When deconstructing the queue looks like a crafting queue. If you cancel any of the deconstruction/crafting you lose the resources.
- Some items cannot be deconstructed. (examples: Growing Plots)
- The Deconstructor can be crafted or found as loot in POI's
