Plano B Terraform – Supply Ratios and Chains Guide for Beginners

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

What’s Inside

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.

No entanto, 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 Ferro – 8 Excavators
• 10 Azoto – 2 Ice Extractors
• 90 Carbon – 7.5 Atmospheric Extractors

Estação de bombeamento :

• 72 Enxofre – 4.8 Excavators
• 72 Ferro – 4.8 Excavators
• 16 Alum Ore – 1.06 Excavators
• 12 carbon – 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
Ferro	15	Excavator
Enxofre	15	Excavator
Aluminum Ore	15	Excavator
Fluorite	15	Excavator
carbon	12	Atmospheric Extractor
O2	12	Atmospheric Extractor
Azoto	5	Ice Extractor
Água	5	Ice Extractor
Água	30	Bomba de água

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.

Product	Produced	Recurso 1	Factorys	Recurso 2	Factorys
Aço	30	90 Ferro	6 Excavator
Concreto	30	90 Enxofre	6 Excavator
Aluminum Bar	30	60 Aluminum Ore	4 Excavator
Peças mecânicas	30	30 Aço	1
Reinforced Concrete	30	30 Concreto	1	30 Aço	1
Polymer	30	90 Carbon	7.5 Atmospheric Extractor
Hightech Parts	90	60 Alumínio	2	30 Polymer	1
Compost	30	60 Carbon	5 Atmospheric Extractor	30 Azoto	6 Ice Extractor
Aço Temperado	90	120 Aço	4	30 Azoto	6 Ice Extractor
Composite	30	30 Aço Temperado	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

Saída 1	Saída 2	Waste	Recurso	Fábrica
60 Aço	30 Alumínio	180 Metal
30 Polymer	60 Plástico
30 Compost	5 Orgânico	30 Azoto	6 Ice Extractor

Estufa – 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

Produced	Recurso 1	Fonte	Recurso 2	Fábrica
60 Comida	120 Água	4 Bomba de água 24 Ice Extractor	30 Compost	1 Fábrica 1 Recycle Plant

Required Compost

Produced	Recurso 1	Factorys	Recurso 2	Factorys
30 Compost	60 Carbon	5 Atmospheric Extractor	30 Azoto	6 Ice Extractors
30 Compost	150 Organic Waste	City Waste	30 Azoto	6 Ice Extractors

Terraformação

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

Product	Recurso 1	Factorys	Recurso 2	Factorys
30 NF3	30 Azoto	6 Ice Extractor	30 Fluorite	2 Excavator
30 SF6	30 Sulfer	2 Excavator	30 Fluorite	2 Excavator

Finalizado

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)

Ainda, 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.

por exemplo:

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

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