Tools
Craftsmen have a variety of high-tech tools to aid their tasks at their disposal.
General tools
Flashlight
Used to illuminate dark places. Some weapons can sacrifice a slot for a mounted flashlight, but it's viewed as a great waste. To use Flashlight, put it in your Quickbelt then equip it with an associated number key. Not used very often, but can be useful at times if you like to play on low screen brightness.

High-capacity variants can be provided by your Faction Supply Managers.
