Backpack Crafting 101

Description
I'm pretty sure there may be other mods out there that add backpack crafting but none of them had quite what I was looking for and I wanted the modding practice anyway.

I tried my best to integrate backpack crafting without making it stick our like a sore thumb in the world of Kenshi. In order to craft the backpacks you will need to research the appropriate tech which is done as usual. The bags unlock in tiers and are tied to different levels of the research bench. In order to craft the bags you will need to then build the bag crafting bench and buy blueprints from the appropriate traders.

Any trader that you can commonly buy backpacks from should also now sell their blueprints as well with two exceptions. If you want thieves backpacks you will need to talk to the special equipment vendor in the thieves guild buildings. If you would like to craft medium and large trader's backpacks you will need to research a final tech at the level 5 research bench.

Mainly made this mod for my own enjoyment but if you find and and it like it that that's great! I am open to any feedback/suggestions or if you have any issues let me know!

how do you get backpack parts, can someone tell me?

This mod is a relief to anyone's sanity (looking for backpacks for sale at vendors is tedious).
But why a workbench for each tier ? Wouldn't it be enough to simply unlock blueprints ?
And where are the produced backpacks stored ? I cannot find any dedicated storage...

FYI, Genesis mod is compatible with like 0 mods. Just assume if you install Genesis you are not installing any other mods with it.

I'm using this mod with Genesis mod.
I have the tech and the blueprints, but they don't show up on the benches as craftable.
Is it possible for me to change this?

The name of the mod will be this on your steam kenshi mod library 2909495250 once you downloaded, go there and overwrite the fcs with this. Make sure you have a backup of the original fcs. I testing it and currently seems okay, not crashed the editor, need to test in game aswell.
To thank the mod creator go and find this mod above. His/her work is well needed for modding.

Well it seems i found a solution for this, there is a mod that allows you (expands your fcs capabilities) to add missing values to items so you can finally achieve the craft time for bags and the items needs to craft it.
The name of the mod is this : Customized fcs def (This is not a mod)
The creator of the mod made a route what you need to do, basically just make a backup of the fcs.def under kenshi, and replace the def in the mod with the original fcs.def.
Then start up the fcs editor and you can now use more options on the editor. on the .... button add missing files on the secelted items and you will see the extra options.

Updated with a fix for the Backpack Parts Storage; it should now properly unlock once you research Backpack Crafting Basics; let me know if you have any issues!

@ Cirilla almost 4 years later, but could you show me (us) how to get the storage box to show?

Thanks! I also cannot find the backpack parts storage at first but looking at FCS I think its not added so I tweaked it a bit and added it to the "enabled buildings" on the research

Cannot fight the storage for backpack parts, I've unlocked all the backpack research stages.
