	''Fetch'' will ~~take~~ needed commodities from connected buildings~~'s inventory and store them in~~ the manufacturing process. Tools are ~~not~~ fetched~~, they~~ are ~~first~~ used when the manufacturing process is run.		''Fetch'' will import needed commodities directly from the storage at connected buildings. The commodities are added to the manufacturing process. When a number of commodities is fetched, a test of their quality is made. If any fail, the number of fetched commodities is reduced. Another fetch is then required to get more.

			Tools are used from the building's tool box. If a tool is needed, one is fetched from connected buildings. Tools are used when the manufacturing process is run.

	''Run'' will first attempt to fetch any missing commodities, meaning that using the "Fetch" button is not actually necessary. If all needed commodities are in the manufacturing process, a check is then made for required tools and [[environmental]] factors, on success the process is started.
