A number of conveyor belts have been added to help sort junk. Conveyor systems can take items placed on them and transfer them to be sorted, allowing them to be collected and fed into a number of builders. By attaching a terminal with a builder, one can craft other junk items, basic armor, weapons (including energy and heavy weapons), explosives, all kinds of ammunition, processed food items, and firework shells (described below).

— Official description

Contraptions Workshop is the fourth add-on for Fallout 4, developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks.

Release and availability

Contraptions Workshop was released on June 21, 2016 for all platforms, and costs $4.99.

Overview

As the name suggests, Contraptions Workshop adds several gizmos and gadgets to enhance one's settlements or simply make a little fun. There are new structures, including buildings, elevators, and a track kit that creates massive Rube Goldberg style contraptions that can encompass entire settlements. The add-on also features manufacturing machines, conveyor belts, and display cases to help supplement and connect the new structures and contraptions.

Contraptions

The most notable of contraptions is the ball track, which comes with a number of ramps, curves, forks, and mergers. With the proper infrastructure, and coupled with other structures, like elevators and conveyor belts, these tracks can be massive, allowing balls to traverse entire settlements.

Manufacturing

A number of conveyor belts have been added to help sort junk. Conveyor systems can take items placed on them and transfer them to be sorted, allowing them to be collected and fed into a number of builders. By attaching a terminal with a builder, one can craft other junk items, basic armor, weapons (including energy and heavy weapons), explosives, all kinds of ammunition, processed food items, and firework shells (described below).

Structures

There are four new structures for one's settlements: barns and warehouses come with a variety of prefabricated structures, along with floors, walls, roofs, stairs, and doors to customize the structures to the build liking. The other two structures are a number of boxcars (available in blue and orange) and scaffolding, with plenty of types of frames, floors, stairs, and railings. Elevators have also been added, allowing one to be elevated two, three or four stories up their structure once the elevator is powered.

Power

Conduits and logic gates

If one is running low on copper for wiring, several types of conduits allow power to be directed in all sorts of directions to their destination. Logic gates can also be attacked to electrical systems as to allow power to the system only when a specific combination of power inputs are met.

Launchers

Three types of launchers are added: a pitching machine, a junk mortar, and two types of firework mortars. The pitching machine simply launches any small miscellaneous item loaded into it once powered. Likewise, the junk mortar will hurl junk items into the air after loading it up and powering it on. Firework launchers either propel fireworks (now craftable at a chemistry station) straight up into the air or at an angle after being powered up; these allow one to create dazzling firework displays, or even alter the current weather.

Marquee

Bright marquee signs and letter are added as well, including all manners of arrow signs, a marque sign and acrylic lettering, which has A-Z, 0-9, and some punctuation.

Furniture

Several display cases are also added, allowing one to decorate their home with weapon and armor racks, standard display cases, and even display cases for favorite sets of power armor.
