Handbook

The Handbook, like the Workshop, is a crucial part of My Time at Portia. The player character will receive this book from Presley after the short intro, alongside a letter from "Pa". This book contains practically everything important to beginning work in the Workshop.

Diagrams
The Handbook contains designs (known in Portia as diagrams) for various complex objects. At the start of the game, there are only a handful of diagrams, but the player character can collect many more as time goes on. Items with diagrams are always created using the Assembly Station.

Handbook Tabs
The Handbook can be viewed in the menu {select "Handbook" at the top of the screen), by pressing "G" on the keyboard, or by approaching the podium near the Assembly Station.

There are three tabs on the left side of the Handbook:


 * "Workshop Handbook": The Handbook includes basic assembly instructions and the crafting details of items that can be assembled.
 * "Items Catalog": The Items Catalog is a list of non-assembled items that can be crafted in the game.
 * "Assembly Index": The Assembly Index is a list of the items that can be assembled with the Assembly Station and at what level that station must be to assemble the item. The "Check" button serves as a helpful way to quickly navigate to a specific crafting recipe in the Handbook.
