Intro
The credit goes to the user who posted these conversions, which he data-mined, on Pacific Drive's General Discussions.

In the same discussion, the developer mentioned that he did not data-mine all of the Pacemaker recipes, so some remain a mystery!
All I have done is rewrite the resource names from their item map names to their actual in-game names. Additionally, I have organized them into their respective in-game categories according to the items given to the Pacemaker.
Updates
3rd Update(Early/Mid-October 2024)
- Fixed grammar and rewrote some parts of the guide, so it is easier to read
- Other changes and fixes

2nd Update(Late-May 2024):
- Last of the original recipes (from the Steam Discussion) confirmed to work by me
- Completely restructured the Guide for better readability and ease of use!
- A fully tested category of items will be now underlined (thus there is no need to test items for yourself) and thus the check marks for said categories have been removed
- Other changes and fixes

1st Update(Mid-May 2024):
- More recipes confirmed to work either by me or by the lovely people from the comment section
- Reorganized the recipes into categories by the respective item that is given to the Pacemaker
- New recipes:
-> Side Battery makes Plasma
-> Large Fuel Can makes Rubber
- Other changes and fixes

Thank you for reading!

Some Additions:

- 1x Goldshell (Combustible) => 9x Olympium Fragment
- 1x 3x3 Dumpster Pearl (Oxidized) => 1x Resource Radar (Peculiar)
- 1x Goldshell (Dehydrated) => 2x 3x3 Dumpster Pearl (1x is definitely random type, the other is either always Unreliable, or the RNG simply doesn't love me)
- 1x 2x2 or 2x3 Dumpster Pearl (Any Type) => Same size Dumpster Pearl (Wet)
- 1x 3x3 Dumpster Pearl (Wet) => Hydro Generator (Peculiar) and Paddle Tire (Peculiar)

Someone on Reddit has also posted a pretty comprehensive Google Docs spreadsheet with their findings; several of the recipes I listed were ones I happened to remember from there. Would never have known to try this in the first place without their post, so they deserve all credit in my mind.

Some corrections:

- 1x CarbonFiberGlass => 1x Olympium Fragment, not 9V battery

I put in two stacks of 10, and only ended up with 18 Olympium Fragments, but the Pacemaker was on a hill, so I behind believe I simply lost two that rolled away further than I could find. This is pretty huge, since it let me get Olympium Fragments before reaching the Deep Zone.

- 1x Anchor Radar => 2x Side Storage (Peculiar), not 1x regular

The effects seem to be random, I only had 1 Anchor Radar to test with, but the two Side Storage units I got had +45% Shock Resistance, and +30% Impact and Explosion Resistance, respectively.

1x Crude Flashlight => 3x Explosives, not 1x

Again, another way to get a material normally only found in the Deep Zone much earlier, although Explosives are significantly less useful than Olympium Fragments, as they are used in far fewer recipes.

Corrodible Goldshell = Olympium Torch. Dehydrated Goldshell = 2x Dumpster Pearl (much bigger and perfectly rounder than the regular ones you loot). Only tested once so these results could be random.

Coductive goldshell gave me 13 chemicals
afaik durability won't make a difference
Scorch 19 Apr @ 8:13pm 
When I put in 1 Anchor Radar(almost full durability) I got 2 Side Storage containers. For some of these recipes is there variability in the output quantity? Also thanks, very helpful guide.
all of them looked to have randomized hp but most were above 80% i think.
i accidentally inserted 2 stacks of olympium into one of these and gave me 40 peculiar headlights :v

I just put a dehydrated goldshell into the pacemaker and it gave me 2 massive dumpster pearls, biggest I have seen, they were perfectly round and I had to chase them

I think 1 MRE gets 5 pieces of plastic.
