How to Craft a Fishing Rod

To kickstart your fishing adventures in Once Human, you'll first need to craft a Fishing Rod at the Supplies Workbench. Here's what you'll need to gather:

  • 20 Logs: Obtained by chopping down trees.
  • 10 Copper Ingots: Created by smelting Copper Ore and Charcoal in a furnace.

Make sure you've unlocked the Essential Tools under the Crafting section in your Memetics menu to access the Supplies Workbench. Once you're ready, press 'F' to add the fishing rod to your crafting queue. You can monitor the crafting time on the lower left side of your menu. Don't forget to collect your completed Fishing Rod from the workstation!
