How To Make Craft Guns In Rimworld

Learning to craft guns in Rimworld is a straightforward process that opens up new combat possibilities for your colony. This guide walks you through the essential steps to set up a machining table and begin producing firearms, from revolvers to sniper rifles.

Setting Up Your Machining Table

The first step in gun crafting is to build a machining table. This is the core workstation you’ll need for all firearm production.

When placing your machining table, it’s highly recommended to set up tool cabinets nearby. These cabinets improve efficiency when using the machining table, making your gun production faster and more effective.

Adding Bills to Your Machining Table

Once your machining table is built, click on it to access the Bills menu. From here, click “Add Bill” to start creating firearms.

The Bills menu displays a wide variety of gun options you can craft, including:

Revolver

Auto Pistol

Machine Pistol

Bolt Rifle

Sniper Rifles

And many other firearms

Selecting Your Gun and Setting Production Quantities

Select the gun you want to craft—for example, a Bolt Rifle. Once selected, you can configure how many you want to produce. You have two options:

Set a specific quantity to craft until you reach a target stock amount

Set production to continue indefinitely

The Gun Crafting Process

After you’ve added a bill, your colonists will automatically begin crafting the firearm. The production process takes considerable time, so patience is necessary during manufacturing.

To ensure quality results, assign a colonist with high crafting skill to operate the machining table. You can check your colonists’ skills in the Details panel and select the worker with the best crafting ability—this will directly improve the quality of the guns being produced.

Choosing the Right Worker

Gun crafting requires the Crafting skill, and the quality of your firearms depends heavily on your worker’s skill level. Select a colonist with the highest crafting ability available—for example, a worker like Afineus with superior crafting stats will produce higher-quality guns than someone with lower skill levels.

Always prioritize assigning your best crafter to the machining table to maximize gun quality.

Summary

Now you know how to make guns in Rimworld! The process is simple: build a machining table with tool cabinets, add bills for your desired firearms, assign a high-skilled crafter, and let production begin. With patience and a skilled worker, your colony will be well-armed in no time.
