Tinkerer's Workshop not working, at all

[IronCroshu]

Wife and I just started playing the game. (first time for her) Some reason on this playthrough we found the goblin, I immediately purchased the workshop and so far it's not working at all for neither of us. We both have items we should be able to make but nothing appears craftable. Anyone else having this issue lately?

Do you have them equipped? If do, take them off.

[IronCroshu]

Nope, I know to not have them equipped. I don't understand it at all.

[Knightbunny]

are you sure you have everything?

[IronCroshu]

Yes, just trying to make us both specter boots, won't let the items be combined, I've played the game to post moon lord in the past, I know how to do practically everything in the game (what items for what accs and such), just recently stumbled across this bug. But the most awkward thing is it's doing it for my wife and I both.

[Concernedgrape]

Drop the items on the ground and pick them up again.
I believe I've isolated this crafting bug as follows:
1. Items bought from shops aren't considered to be "discovered" by you, so dropping them and retrieving fixes that.
2. Items crafted while at full inventory do the same thing, again drop and retrieve.


Hope this helps.

Yeah, already tried. It's a major bummer. Wanted to come back and re-enjoy the game but eventually you really need to mix accessories and without being able to do so kinda just stinks having to switch accs mid combat constantly

Can you screenshot what you're seeing on your screen and send it here?

I'm just as confused as you are. If you have all the items necessary to craft the accessory, and neither of them are equipped, then there's really no reason that I can think of for you to not be able to craft it. Perhaps, try going on one of your old worlds with an old character and seeing if the workshop still works there, since I'm assuming you didn't have this problem in the past.

Figured it out; you have to actually find the goblin tinkerer who sells it to you in the world your playing in. It won’t work if you take the tinkerer’s workshop from one world to another (unless that world also has that unlocked)

Can confirm this is not the case. Bought a tinker's workshop in my main world and brought a titan glove and feral claws to make a power glove. I was still able to make a power glove in a brand new world after placing the tinker's workshop down.

Make sure you're standing next to the Workshop, not on top of it or something. If that does not help, verify your game files - corruptions there can bring the oddest results.

Yea I can also confirm that with 1.4, I have taken the Tinkerer's Workshop to a world where I did not find the Goblin yet, and it still works to combine things.

but I'm glad you got it working for you!
