Chemical Supplies Cannot Be Unpacked in Demo

Last checked: · UPDATE 049

Direct answer

Chemical-supply unpacking was intentionally removed from the Demo, according to the developer's September 14 reply. The feature is planned to return for 1.0. Buying another packet or retrying an old Playtest interaction does not establish a supported Demo chemistry recipe.

Why an older guide may disagree

The current developer answer takes priority over community references that still describe unpacking. Chemical Supplies can appear as an item record without every earlier use being enabled. Item availability and the ability to unpack it are separate facts.

What to do with the limitation

Treat any planned chemistry investment as pending until the released game and its recipe behavior are verified. Keep existing supplies only if you have a reason supported by current item text or another verified use. This page does not invent extraction yields, replacements or a workaround that bypasses the Demo boundary.
