Confirm content access before troubleshooting the workstation
The official DLC announcement says Better Save Soul adds a book describing global craft control of Zombie Workstations and says the player can manage those stations directly from the map. That feature description is DLC-scoped; it should not be treated as a base-game menu that every player has unlocked.
- Check the storefront/library for Better Save Soul ownership and whether the DLC is enabled for the active game installation.
- Open the current quest/inventory/progression UI and confirm the relevant DLC introduction or book has been reached; do not infer unlock from owning the DLC alone.
- Verify that at least one Zombie Workstation is built and assigned before expecting a map-level station entry.
- If the station works locally but is absent from Global Craft Control, record DLC status, platform/build, quest progress and station type before changing the production chain.
- Check the current official announcement and the installed UI; older posts may refer to different DLC rollout or progression states.
- If the DLC is not owned, use the game's base workstation controls rather than searching for a hidden Global Craft Control hotkey.
| What you have | What the source supports | Next check |
|---|---|---|
| Base game only | Zombie automation exists in the game history | Use local station controls; don't expect DLC map menu |
| Better Save Soul installed | DLC advertises Global Craft Control | Verify DLC intro/progression and built station |
| Station works but not listed globally | Could be progression, station, or installation state | Record exact UI/build before rebuilding |
| Different platform/edition | Steam announcement may not match rollout | Check platform's DLC status and version |

Track the station before changing the chain
This local note is a preflight, not a live inventory or DLC entitlement check. Use it to separate what is installed from what is unlocked.
- Enter platform, build, owned DLC and visible quest state.
- Name the workstation and record whether it appears in local or map controls.
- Compare the game's actual UI before modifying recipes or moving zombies.

Before you play
- I checked Better Save Soul installation separately from base-game access.
- I confirmed DLC progression and a built Zombie Workstation.
- I did not rebuild the production chain before checking the UI.
Frequently asked questions
Is Global Craft Control part of the base game?
The official announcement describes it as a Better Save Soul DLC feature. Verify the installed edition and progression.
Does owning the DLC instantly expose every station?
The source describes the feature but not a universal unlock-at-start rule; check the DLC introduction and in-game UI.
Can this checker see my DLC or workstation?
No. It only records information you enter; it cannot inspect Steam or your save.
