Repair Bench, Tribe Won;t use it?

[Gisborne]

I put all broken tools in there and set my tribe to use bench but no one will ever go use and repair the tools? what am i missing?

Are the materials in the bench also to repair said weapons? Its not a free repair table you still need the stuff in there to repair them. Really the only difference in that table and just using the weapons bench is you can do mass repairs.

You can set a tribe member to manage the bench, they should take the materials from other places such as chests or tables as needed and then make the repairs.

Do tribe members put broke tools into the repair bench? So you can fully automate the whole system?

Sadly no :(

You don’t need to put materials in the bench but you do need to press space bar for repair. There’s a tooltip at the bottom, easily missed.

This will mark the items for repair (you can see it visually) and they’ll auto do it.

There’s no way to get them to repair their own tools annoyingly
