### Hints
Archipelago's hint system is available within Satisfactory via the `/hint` command.
Most multiworld item names have a prefix to distinguish recipes from bundles.
For example, to hint for the Assembler, run `/hint Building: Assembler`.
Satisfactory's hint system has special behavior for Satisfactory crafting items.
If you hint the unprefixed name of an item with multiple recipes, the system will hint the recipe you are expected to find first in randomizer logic.
For example, hinting `Smart Plating` will return the logically first Smart Plating recipe,
but hinting `Recipe: Smart Plating` or `Recipe: Plastic Smart Plating` will hint that specific recipe for Smart Plating,
which may or may not be in logic.
Exact Archipelago Item names (for hints/starting inventory/etc.) can be found
[on the mod's github](https://github.com/Jarno458/Archipelago/blob/Satisfactory/worlds/satisfactory/Items.py).
