Knowledge

Knowledge is the equivalent of an experience system in Worlds Adrift. Knowledge can be gained by using your Gauntlet's Forge Scanner (Default ) on ancient Databanks which scattered over islands. In addition, you can scan island objects for small bits of knowledge and collect Lore pieces (codices) for 15, 25, 50, or 100 knowledge apiece.

Uses
Knowledge is used in the Knowledge Tree to learn schematics or unlock crafting slots. When the player has enough knowledge to research a new item, the node will turn blue.

Core upgrades
In addition to researching procedural items like Cannons or Engines, as you learn more and more knowledge, new Sky Core upgrades are unlocked. These amounts are cumulative.

Schematic Slots
Increases by 1 the amount of schematics you can have learned in each category, Clothing, Cooking, Ship Parts, Utility, and Crafting Components. The cost starts at 50 and increases by 10 for each slot researched up to a maximum of 100 extra slots.
