11 Graveyard Keeper 2 runs on a single supply chain that feeds the graveyard, automation, combat and Town Restoration from the same pool of gathered and processed goods. No official recipe list had been published as of 23 September 2026, the day after launch. What follows is the material actually named or shown in official sources, kept separate from guesswork.

1313 Items Seen in the Hotbar
1414  
1515 The heads-up display carries a four slot hotbar, and the published screenshots catch a handful of carried items with their stack counts. These are visual identifications from art, not confirmed item names.

2222 The build mode capture shows a smelter part way through a job, with an ingot icon above it and a stack count of two, which confirms smelting and metal ingots as part of the chain. Weapons, armour and fortification components come off the same lines, as described on Combat, and trade goods for the reviving settlement come off it as well.

2424 The Three Point Currencies
2525  
2626 Separate from physical materials, the game tracks three coloured point pools spent on research. They are shown on the heads-up display next to the energy bar and again at the top left of the Technology Tree panel.

29-How each pool is earned has not been described. The screenshots also show a small magenta or pink counter beside the energy bar whose purpose is not stated.
29+How the other pools are earned had not been described by 13 October 2026; patch notes show zombies earning red tech points for winning fights and at the quarry. The screenshots also show a small magenta or pink counter beside the energy bar whose purpose is not stated.

3434 The achievement list is the first official text to name bronze and iron as smelted metals, and it counts brewing potions as an activity; the 18 September combat log had already mentioned combat potions. The Necronomicon, a book the player can find, is also named there.
