Medicine Rack

Technology Level 24. Simple medicine shelf that sits beside your medical bay. Sick Pals walk over and take what they need when the rack is stocked, so you spend less time hand-feeding cures during a bad SAN swing.

The usual recipe is Ingot ×20, Wooden Board ×3, and Cloth ×5. Same early metal-and-plank band as the base Clinic, which makes the pair a natural mid-camp unlock. Plant the rack next to the clinic so recovery and self-medicate share one quiet corner instead of splitting across the work floor.

Craft bottles on the Medieval Medicine Workbench and later the Advanced Medicine Workbench, then keep a working stack on the shelf at all times. An empty rack doesn't do anything when illness hits mid-shift. When you unlock Ancient Clinic, keep the rack stocked as the active cure pickup while the ancient bay handles the stronger passive suppress layer. Confirm self-medicate behavior and valid medicine types in game before you rebuild after a base move.
