Plan B Terraform – Supply Ratios and Chains Guide for Beginners

All the numbers for how it’s made from basic materials to top tech.

Was ist drinnen

Below are tables of production and resource demand to keep 1 production building active at max capacity for 1 game year.

These figures DON’T take into account bottlenecks with Transport or insufficient drones.

I have collected all the numbers right down to how many extractors are needed to run a Composite factory or a Pumping Station.

Jedoch, keeping that all neat and readable means I can only add in Raw material extraction rates for the more basic resources. If you like me to add a section that just lists extraction types and rates for everything I can do that.

Composite basic resource extraction is :

• 120 Eisen – 8 Excavators
• 10 Stickstoff – 2 Ice Extractors
• 90 Kohlenstoff – 7.5 Atmospheric Extractors

Pumpstation :

• 72 Schwefel – 4.8 Excavators
• 72 Eisen – 4.8 Excavators
• 16 Alum Ore – 1.06 Excavators
• 12 Kohlenstoff – 1 Atmospheric Extractor

All info presented was collected by hand from a completed game, on the first early access version and as such is subject to change or error.

I will try to present a lot of numbers and information in the neatest and most readable way I can.

Basic Raw Material Production Rates

Raw Materials are mined with an Excavator on mineral fields or specialist buildings that become unlocked during the game.

Production Rates are given in produced Per game year

Raw Resource	Extraction Rate	Extractor
Eisen	15	Bagger
Schwefel	15	Bagger
Aluminum Ore	15	Bagger
Fluorite	15	Bagger
Kohlenstoff	12	Atmospheric Extractor
O2	12	Atmospheric Extractor
Stickstoff	5	Ice Extractor
Wasser	5	Ice Extractor
Wasser	30	Wasserpumpe

Factory Production

Most game resources are produced in the factory.

Product rate is given in Produced per Game year.

For raw resources, the number of extractors is listed in the Factory’s column.

Produkt	Produziert	Ressource 1	Factorys	Ressource 2	Factorys
Stahl	30	90 Eisen	6 Bagger
Beton	30	90 Schwefel	6 Bagger
Aluminum Bar	30	60 Aluminum Ore	4 Bagger
Mechanische Teile	30	30 Stahl	1
Reinforced Concrete	30	30 Beton	1	30 Stahl	1
Polymer	30	90 Kohlenstoff	7.5 Atmospheric Extractor
Hightech Parts	90	60 Aluminium	2	30 Polymer	1
Compost	30	60 Kohlenstoff	5 Atmospheric Extractor	30 Stickstoff	6 Ice Extractor
Tempered Steel	90	120 Stahl	4	30 Stickstoff	6 Ice Extractor
Composite	30	30 Tempered Steel	0.33	30 Polymer	1

Recycling Production

The amount of recyclable Waste will increase over time as the cities get bigger.

You can see its yearly Waste amount by selecting the Waste Disposal building.

While the Waste Disposal will fill with all types of waste you can process it from different waste disposal buildings so don’t feel pressured into fitting all the outputs into just one area.

Production rates are given in Produced per Game year

Gewächshaus – Keeping People Fed.

Greenhouse has the Sole purpose of making food for the big cities and the main consumer of water. All inputs can be traced to Raw resources.

Table shows everything to be Self Sustaining.

Production rates Given in Production per Game year

Terraforming

This section is for things that make the planet a nicer place to live. Greenhouse gases and pretty green trees.

Fertig

I’m glad that’s over, It took far to long fix spelling errors and formatting. (for some reason I kept marking mechanical parts as 3 steel instead of 1 so that got confusing)

Trotzdem, I hope it helped just a little if so it was worth the time. Remember all Info taken from the First Early Access version so subject to change.

It’s a shame I couldn’t fit all my gathered info into nice neat tables but my notes are not exactly user-friendly.

z.B:

12 pumping stations – 2 reinforced concrete, 1 high tech parts – 24 reinforced concrete(0.8), 12 high tech parts(0.13) – 24 Beton(0.8), 24 Stahl(0.8),8 Alum(0.26) 4 polymer(0.13) – 72 sulfer 4.8 exv, 72 Eisen 4.8 exv, 16 alum ore 1.06 exv, 12 Kohlenstoff 1 atmos

But if you think a total breakdown like this would be useful id certainly consider it.
