Diode

Diode is a high-tech laser diode item used as a crafting component. It functions as a material required by recipes that call for laser-grade electronic parts and appears in the game as a specialized component rather than a finished tool or weapon.

The Diode is described consistently across localizations as a precision laser diode intended for manufacturing. It is treated as a component-level resource for creating items that depend on laser or optical electronic systems.

• Primary role: component for crafting laser-capable or electronics-based recipes.
• Item classification: high-tech manufacturing material (component tier).
• Acquisition and use: obtained and consumed through crafting systems whenever recipes list a Diode as a requirement.

Do not confuse the Diode with standalone emitters or tools; it is presented and used in-game strictly as a craftable material rather than an independently functioning device.
