Acceptance and scope
By accessing or using scrapmechanic.org, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the site. These terms apply to public pages, search, calculators, navigation, and communications sent to the site address. The privacy policy explains how information may be processed during those interactions.
The Scrap Mechanic Field Guide is an independent fan publication. It is not an Axolot Games service and cannot create obligations, guarantees, support commitments, or official statements on behalf of the developer or a game platform.
Permitted use
You may read and link to public pages and use the information for personal gameplay assistance. You may use the browser tools to estimate your own crafting or raid plans. Limited quotation is permitted when it is accurate, reasonably necessary, and accompanied by clear attribution and a link to the relevant page.
Prohibited use
You may not interfere with site availability or security, attempt unauthorized access, submit malicious code, overwhelm the service with automated requests, bypass technical restrictions, impersonate the site, or use public contact details for abusive or deceptive communication. Substantial automated copying, bulk republication, resale, or presentation of original site material as another publisher's work is not permitted.
Accuracy, versions, and player judgment
Game behavior can differ across patches, Steam branches, multiplayer state, world progression, local configuration, and installed mods. Pages may identify a tested version or review date, but content cannot guarantee the behavior of every save, server, branch, or future release.
Exact values are intended to describe the version boundary stated on the page. Build routes and tactical recommendations also depend on player goals, skill, available materials, and world conditions. Verify important values in your current game before committing rare materials or altering an established creation.
Calculators and browser tools
Planning tools estimate outcomes from the values you enter and the rules implemented on the relevant page. They do not access, upload, or modify game files. Results can be affected by incorrect inputs, rounding, version changes, or assumptions described alongside the tool. You remain responsible for checking the displayed result against your current game state.
Worlds, saves, and modifications
Keep independent backups before changing versions, enabling mods, or testing unfamiliar instructions. You remain responsible for your game installation, saves, creations, Workshop subscriptions, server settings, and decisions based on site information. The site cannot restore a damaged world, resolve a mod conflict, recover an account, or reverse an in-game action.
Third-party services
External websites, downloads, platforms, and services have their own terms, privacy practices, availability, and security controls. A link is provided for navigation or context and does not make this site responsible for third-party content, files, accounts, purchases, moderation, or service interruptions.
Ownership and independent status
Original explanatory writing, custom page organization, interface presentation, and planning materials remain protected by applicable law. Scrap Mechanic, associated trademarks, and game assets belong to Axolot Games and their respective rights holders. The copyright notice explains the distinction and the process for sending a rights request.
Availability and disclaimers
The site and its content are provided on an as-available basis for general informational use. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no warranty is made that every page will remain uninterrupted, error-free, complete, or compatible with every game version, device, browser, mod, or multiplayer configuration.
Responsibility and limitation
You are responsible for how you use the site and for maintaining backups of important saves and creations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the site operator is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential loss arising from reliance on game guidance, tool estimates, external links, mod use, version changes, or unavailable services. Nothing in these terms excludes a responsibility that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Changes and contact
Site features or these terms may change to reflect operation, security, editorial practice, or legal requirements. The published page applies from the time it is made available. Questions about these terms may be sent to [email protected]. Contacting the site does not create an official support relationship with Axolot Games.
