If you caught the BitCraft roadmap yesterday, you already knew that Clockwork Labs was prepping a patch for today – and now it’s here, complete with the promised scrapping bench.

“You can now build a new untiered building: The Scrapping Bench,” the patch notes says. “[H]ere you can deconstruct tools into a new scrap item of their tier. Rarer tools will give more scrap. You can also use scrap here to try to raise the rarity of a tool without upgrading it’s tier. We will be monitoring the balance of this and will add it to the other types of equipment with rarity in the future. We are also working on some improvements to the UI of this building, for now you can use the Craftable filter to make it easier to navigate.”

The patch also promises more hair colors, multiple crafting tier tweaks, and a new pet type.

“Added a new type of pet, the elusive Lusul. This marks the start of our planned direction for pets; we want to make sure that pets are interesting to find and not just something you have to specifically target to get. We expect these to be more rare than the owls and have more pets with interesting ways to obtain coming in the future.”

This is a bit of a smaller patch ahead of next week’s housing release, so stay tuned for that too.
