Dogman15: /* List of Space Age expansion achievements */

{{Languages}}
'''Achievements''' are given to the player when certain events happen or criteria is fulfilled. Some achievements are meant to make the player feel invested in the game. Others are meant to guide the player to use different strategies and optional game mechanics. Achievements are available in both the [http://store.steampowered.com/app/427520/ Steam] and standalone versions. There are 88 achievements available: 59 in the base game, and an additional 29 when using [[Space Age]]{{SA}}.

== Disabling achievements ==
[[File:achievement_list.png|thumb|200px|right|Achievement list in-game.]]Achievements can only be unlocked in the default game mode, called ''Freeplay''. Any scenarios, such as the [[tutorial]] or [[scenario system|custom scenarios]] disable achievements. Furthermore, using script or cheat commands in the [[Console#Scripting_and_cheat_commands|console]] disables achievements, however the user will be warned about this the first time they try to run such a command. Within the freeplay game, changing any enemy or pollution settings to anything lower than default disables the following achievements, and will warn the player of this before they start the game:
* There is no spoon
* No time for chitchat
* Raining bullets
* Steam all the way
* Keeping your hands clean
* It stinks and they don't like it
* It stinks and they do like it{{SA}}
* Get off my lawn{{SA}}
* Work around the clock{{SA}}
* Express delivery{{SA}}

Any other changes to map generation or using the [[debug mode]]s does not disable achievements.

A separate instance of achievements will be used when mods are installed and earned achievements will not register with Steam. In multiplayer, achievements can only be earned if the player has spent more than 50% of the time online on the map where the achievement is being awarded.

Re-enabling achievements again can be achieved by editing the binary data of a save. ([https://forums.factorio.com/58077 reference])

Dogman15: /* List of Space Age expansion achievements */

{{Languages}}
'''Achievements''' are given to the player when certain events happen or criteria is fulfilled. Some achievements are meant to make the player feel invested in the game. Others are meant to guide the player to use different strategies and optional game mechanics. Achievements are available in both the [http://store.steampowered.com/app/427520/ Steam] and standalone versions. There are 88 achievements available: 59 in the base game, and an additional 29 when using [[Space Age]]{{SA}}.

== Disabling achievements ==
[[File:achievement_list.png|thumb|200px|right|Achievement list in-game.]]Achievements can only be unlocked in the default game mode, called ''Freeplay''. Any scenarios, such as the [[tutorial]] or [[scenario system|custom scenarios]] disable achievements. Furthermore, using script or cheat commands in the [[Console#Scripting_and_cheat_commands|console]] disables achievements, however the user will be warned about this the first time they try to run such a command. Within the freeplay game, changing any enemy or pollution settings to anything lower than default disables the following achievements, and will warn the player of this before they start the game:
* There is no spoon
* No time for chitchat
* Raining bullets
* Steam all the way
* Keeping your hands clean
* It stinks and they don't like it
* It stinks and they do like it{{SA}}
* Get off my lawn{{SA}}
* Work around the clock{{SA}}
* Express delivery{{SA}}

Any other changes to map generation or using the [[debug mode]]s does not disable achievements.

A separate instance of achievements will be used when mods are installed and earned achievements will not register with Steam. In multiplayer, achievements can only be earned if the player has spent more than 50% of the time online on the map where the achievement is being awarded.

Re-enabling achievements again can be achieved by editing the binary data of a save. ([https://forums.factorio.com/58077 reference])

| This achievement can no longer be unlocked if the first [[Enemies#Nests|spawner or egg raft]] is destroyed in any way but with artillery. Killing Nauvis worms is allowed.
A possible strategy to neutralize spawners without destroying them is to block enemy spawning by placing structures around spawners.[https://forums.factorio.com/128208]

Asteroids

2025-06-18T03:59:10Z

Dogman15: /* Asteroid types */

{{Languages}}
{{Stub}}
{{About/Space age}}
[[File:asteroids_anim.gif|right]]'''Asteroids''' are floating minerals found in space. There are four types of asteroids in [[Space Age]]: metallic, carbonic, oxide and promethium. Promethium asteroids are only encountered when en route to the [[shattered planet]]. Asteroids appear from all directions around stationary [[space platform]]s. [[Asteroid collector]]s can collect [[Asteroids#Asteroid chunks|asteroid chunks]], which can be fed into a [[crusher]], grinding the chunks into useful resources.

While traveling through space, asteroids will appear in front of the space platform at a much higher rate and damage it on contact. [[Turret]]s placed towards the north edge of the platform can prevent damage by breaking the asteroids into smaller pieces.

The density of asteroids can be seen by going to '''Remote view''' > '''Surfaces''' > '''Space Map''' and clicking on an interplanetary route between two planets, or by searching "route" in Factoriopedia. The graph will show a white vertical line overlay on the asteroid graph corresponding to the ship's position when underway.

== Asteroid chunks ==
'''Asteroid chunks''' are the smallest asteroid type, serving as the sole source of resources in space. Due to their size and low mass, these small chunks will not damage the player's space platform when colliding with it. These chunks come in four distinct varieties, three of which can be processed into raw materials using [[crusher]]s. Researching [[Advanced_asteroid_processing_(research)|advanced asteroid processing]] unlocks alternate recipes which can extract additional materials.

Map generator

2025-03-26T04:01:02Z

Dogman15: /* Advanced */

{{Languages}}
[[File:Default_123456789.png|thumb|right|An example how the world generator might create a new map: Default settings with map seed 123456789]]
World generation is the procedure by which the in game landscape is generated. In short: a number of settings, editable at the start of a new world, define what that world will look like. This can dramatically alter gameplay — a new player is advised to start with the default settings before deciding to change their world.
__TOC__{{Clear}}
== Map generation presets ==
[[File:MapGeneratorOverview.png|thumb|right|400px|Overview of the map generation screen in Space Age]]
A preset may be chosen in the top left dropdown instead of manually configuring the generation. If playing in [[Space Age]]{{SA}}, presets will only change settings on [[Nauvis]].
=== Default ===
Normal settings. The recommended way to play Factorio.

All sliders are set to the center position. Map height and width is unlimited, peaceful mode is disabled.

All other settings are set to their defaults:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Enemy expansion !! Default !! Evolution !! Default
|-
| Enabled || Yes || Enabled || Yes
|-
| Maximum expansion distance || 7 || Time factor || 40
|-
| Minimum group size || 5 || Destroy factor || 200
|-
| Maximum group size || 20 || Pollution factor || 9
|-
| Minimum cooldown (Minutes) || 4
|-
| Maximum cooldown (Minutes) || 60
|-
|}

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Pollution !! Default !! Recipes/Technology !! Default
|-
| Enabled || Yes || Technology price multiplier || 1
|-
| Absorption modifier || 100%
|-
| Attack cost modifier || 100%
|-
| Minimum damage to trees || 60
|-
| Absorbed per damaged tree || 10
|-
| Diffusion ratio || 2%
|-
|}

=== Rich resources ===
Resources patches on Nauvis have a larger richness, so you don't have to expand far.

Difference from default: Resources have 200% richness instead of 100%.

=== Marathon ===
Technologies are more expensive.

Difference from default: Technology price multiplier 4.

=== Death world ===
Biters are more dangerous and evolve faster.

Difference from default: 200% enemy base frequency and 200% enemy base size on Nauvis, 75% starting area size, enemy evolution time factor is set to 200, pollution factor is set to 12. The pollution absorption and attack cost modifiers are set to 50% instead of 100%

=== Death world marathon ===
Technologies are more expensive and biters are dangerous and plentiful. Only select this if you are a Factorio veteran.

Combines "Marathon" and "Death world" with some additional changes: Enemy evolution time factor is set to 150, pollution factor is set to 10. Attack cost modifier is set to 80% instead of 100% (50% for death world).

=== Rail world ===
Resource patches are large and spread far apart, to encourage train systems. Biters won't create any new bases or re-expand into cleared territory.

Difference from default: Resources on Nauvis are set to 33% frequency and 300% size. Nauvis water is set to 200% scale and 150% coverage. The evolution time factor is set to 20 from 40 and enemy expansion is disabled.

=== Ribbon world ===
The map height is limited to only 128 tiles, which introduces a range of challenges and interesting situations.

Difference from default: Map height on all planets is limited to 128. Resources on Nauvis are set to 300% frequency, 50% size and 200% richness. Nauvis water is set to 25% coverage and size. Starting area size is increased to 300%.

=== Lakes ===
Lakes with consistent size and cliffs that tend to follow the coastline. Forest paths are disabled. The same elevation as Factorio 1.1.

Difference from default: Tree coverage is set to 50%. This preset uses the map and cliff generation from version [[version history/1.1.0#1.1.0|1.1]]

=== Island ===
A large island in an endless ocean. Forest paths are disabled.

Difference from default: Tree coverage is set to 50%. Terrain map type is set to island. This preset uses the map and cliff generation from version 1.1.

== Manual configuration ==
It is possible experiment with different settings by opening the map preview, changing the settings and observing their effects. This makes it possible to directly observe what exactly particular settings modify in the world, beyond the textual descriptions provided on this page. If playing in [[Space Age]]{{SA}}, you can preview any planet by using the drop-down menu in the top right. There will also be additional settings for planet-specific settings, and each setting will show an icon telling which planet it affects.

The seed is the starting value for the random number generator that Factorio uses for generating the world based on the generation settings. This means that even with the same generation settings, the world can look very different depending on the seed. If playing in Space Age, a single seed will effect all planets at once.

All resources and terrain features can be disabled by unchecking the checkbox in front of them.

=== Resources ===
Frequency determines the number of resource patches in a given area. It does not affect resource patch size or richness. A setting of 200% frequency that means roughly double the patches can be found in a given area.

The size setting adjusts the size of the resource patches. Setting the slider to 200% means the surface area of the patch is doubled.

Richness defines the yield of every ore tile and every oil field. If richness is set to 200%, each ore tile and oil field contains about double the amount of ore/oil. Outside of this, resource patch richness increases by distance from the starting area.

If playing in Space Age, resource settings can be changed for each planet individually, even if that resource appears on multiple planets. For example, [[coal]] can be configured differently for its appearences on Nauvis and [[Vulcanus]]{{SA}}.

=== Terrain ===
Setting the map type to island generates a single island around the spawn point and endless ocean beyond that. The normal map type generates endless terrain.

Water scale changes how much space there is between lakes. The smaller the scale, the swampier the terrain. Higher scale leads to bigger oceans separated by bigger landmasses. Water coverage influences the overall amount of water. Reducing it generates small lakes, increasing it generates large oceans.

The settings for trees behave in the same way. Higher scale increases the distance between forests while lower scale reduces it. High tree coverage allows to completely cover the world in trees, and low coverage nearly removes them from the world.

Cliff frequency influences how many cliff lines there are in the world. Higher frequency means more cliffs, lower frequency reduces their number. The continuity setting changes how long and unbroken the cliff lines are. Low continuity leads to very short lines, high continuity to long, nearly unbroken lines of cliffs. Cliffs can be set separately for their appearances on [[Fulgora]]{{SA}} and [[Gleba]]{{SA}}.

The moisture settings control the distribution of grass versus desert. Higher bias generates more grass, lower bias generates more desert. Higher scale increases the size of the grass/desert areas, low scale leads to small grass and desert patches.

The terrain type setting controls the distribution of red desert versus sand. Higher bias generates more red desert, lower bias generates more sand. Higher scale increases the size of the red desert/sand areas, low scale leads to small red desert and sand patches.

Vulcanus volcanism determines the distribution of lava compared to the mountains and ashlands on Vulcanus. Higher scale means more lava rivers, lower scale generates more mountains instead. Higher coverage means larger lava pools, smaller coverage means more ashlands.

Gleba water control the distribution of swamps compared to the highlands on [[Gleba]]{{SA}}. Higher scale means more swamplands, lower scale generates more infrequent patches of highland. Higher coverage means larger bodies of deep water, lower coverage means less water and larger highlands.

Gleba plants control the distribution of Gleba's many flora. It behaves similarly to Nauvis trees.

=== Enemy ===
[[File:MapGeneratorEnemy.png|thumb|right|400px|The enemy tab]]
Frequency determines the number of enemy bases in a given area. It does not affect enemy base size. A setting of 200% frequency that means roughly double the enemy bases can be found in a given area.

The size setting adjusts the size of enemy bases. Setting the slider to 200% means the surface area covered by the enemy bases is doubled. Bases can be changed for both Nauvis and Gleba individually.

There are two ways to disable enemies alltogether: "no enemies mode", or "peaceful mode". Selecting either will disable some [[achievements]].

* '''No enemies''': [[Enemies#Nests|Nests]] will still spawn, but no enemies themselves will spawn from them. [[Pollution]] will still effect the nests by increasing their health.
** In Space Age, on Vulcanus, Demolishers will also not spawn, and thus there will be no territories. On Gleba, destroying egg rafts will no longer spawn wrigglers. [[Pentapod egg]]{{SA}} and [[biter egg]]{{SA}} will no longer spawn their creatures upon spoiling, and will instead simply disappear.
* '''Peaceful mode''': Enemies don't begin fights, only responding if the player (or a structure) fires at them. Only the enemies located near the fired shot are aggravated and they do not call other enemies to join them. The aggravated enemies primarily attack the structures and players that initiated the aggression and also the structures that block their paths. After destroying their targets, most of the time the aggravated enemies will return to being peaceful, but some of them continue a nonstop rampage where they target nearby structures (but not faraway ones). Additionally, when a map is in peaceful mode, the enemies will not [[Enemies#Expansions|expand]].
** In Space Age, Demolishers will not attack if you build in their territory, but will still destroy buildings if they are placed in its path.

The starting area is an almost circular radius around the spawn point that does not contain enemy bases or demolisher territory. Increasing its size pushes the bases further out, while decreasing its size generates enemy bases closer to the spawn point. The size setting does not have any other effect.

[[Enemies#Expansions|Enemy expansion]] can be enabled/disabled and further adjusted using the below settings.

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Enemy expansion setting !! Description
|-
| Maximum expansion distance || The maximum distance enemies will look to expand from other enemy bases.
|-
| Minimum group size || The minimum size of an enemy expansion party modified by the current evolution level.
|-
| Maximum group size || The maximum size of an enemy expansion party modified by the current evolution level.
|-
| Minimum cooldown (Minutes) || The minimum time between enemy expansions being sent out.
|-
| Maximum cooldown (Minutes) || The maximum time between enemy expansions being sent out.
|-
|}

[[Enemies#Evolution|Evolution]] can be enabled/disabled and further adjusted using the below settings.

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Evolution setting !! Description
|-
| Time factor || Controls how fast evolution increases over time.
|-
| Destroy factor || Controls how fast evolution increases due to destroying enemy spawners.
|-
| Pollution factor || Controls how fast evolution increases due to producing pollution.
|-
|}

=== Advanced ===

The map width and height allow generating maps with finite resources and area. It is possible to limit generation to only one dimension, like the [[#Ribbon world|ribbon world]]. The technology price multiplier allows one to multiply the [[research|technology cost]].

[[Pollution]] can be enabled/disabled and further adjusted using the below settings.

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Pollution setting !! Description
|-
| Absorption modifier || Modifier of how much pollution is absorbed by trees and tiles.
|-
| Attack cost modifier || Modifier of how much pollution is absorbed by enemy attacks.
|-
| Minimum damage to trees || Trees have 4 different stages of the progression towards being destroyed by pollution. Any pollution above this amount starts the process of moving a tree towards a more damaged stage.
|-
| Absorbed per damaged tree || Trees have 4 different stages of the progression towards being destroyed by pollution. This value specifies how much pollution is absorbed when moving to a more damaged stage.
|-
| Diffusion ratio || The amount of pollution diffused into neighboring chunks per second.
|-

=== Map exchange string ===

A map exchange string generally looks like this:

The map exchange string can be used to share all map generation settings between different players. The player can paste the string (using {{Keybinding|ctrl|V}}) into the map exchange string field and the game will set the generation settings to the settings saved in the string, resulting in a complete copy of the map when generated.

The map exchange string can be retrieved from save files by going into the load game screen, selecting the desired map, clicking the map exchange string button in the upper right corner and copying the string from the window that pops up.

For a technical description of the map exchange string, see [[map exchange string format]].

== Mechanics ==

=== Starting area ===

There is a second internal starting area that is completely separate from the starting area that can be changed in the enemy settings tab. This starting area always has a constant size and affects the spawning of resources, cliffs and water directly at the spawn. The map generation logic makes sure that there is always at least one patch of [[coal]], [[iron ore]], [[copper ore]], and [[stone]] each. Furthermore, there is always a lake in the starting area, even when water is turned off, and there are never any cliffs there. [[Uranium ore]] and [[crude oil]] do not spawn in the starting area. The richness of the ore patches is slightly influenced by the frequency setting.[https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?p=432592#p432592]

=== Chunks ===

A map is endless by default, though its size can be limited by height and width — see above. Because it is technically endless, the whole map is not generated from the start. Instead, a new [[Map_structure#Chunk|chunk]] of the map is generated only when needed, similar to other procedurally generated world games.

==== Invisible chunks (fog of war) ====

Outside of the visible chunk area, an invisible area of about 3 chunks wide is generated as a preloading mechanism. Enemies may be located inside these invisible chunks and can attack the player from there, while [[artillery turret]]s and [[artillery wagon|wagon]]s may automatically shoot enemy bases in these chunks if they are within their automatic range. Invisible chunks are also generated if pollution is generated heavily; the game generates (invisible) chunks as it needs to spread the pollution into the area.

==== Charting (removing fog of war) ====

As long as a chunk is invisible, the part of the players map stays black. This changes when a chunk is [[Radar#Charting|charted]], which means when it is "touched" by a radar. This can be either the player's internal radar, which is always available and continually charts chunks around the player, or the [[radar]] entity. If a far-away and thus ungenerated chunk is charted, it will be generated, together with the above-mentioned invisible 3 chunk radius of map around it.

==== Maximum map size and used memory ====

The map size is limited to 2,000 x 2,000 kilometers; internally, this is a square 2,000,000 tiles on a side, with an area of 4,000,000,000,000 (4 trillion) square tiles (assuming 1 tile = 1 meter on a side yields 2,000 x 2,000 km = 4 million square km). In real-world terms, this is between the sizes of India and Australia (or about 40% the area of the United States, or over 10 times the area of Germany). It would take around 200 [[Time#Seconds|game-minutes]] (ca 3.3 hours real time) to reach that border from the center when riding a [[locomotive|train]] fueled with [[rocket fuel|rocket]] or [[nuclear fuel]]. This makes the world essentially endless for practical purposes. The generated chunks are fully mapped and stored in the player's RAM, which is the practical limiting factor of exploration.

Because chunks are only generated in and close around the area revealed by radar, it is possible to reach that border without overloading your computer, as the size of the map in computer memory is dependent only on chunks actually generated. If only a narrow stripe of land is explored to far away, this remains manageable.

Space platform foundation

Dogman15: /* Notes */

{{Languages}}
{{Stub}}
{{About/Space age}}
{{:Infobox:Space_platform_foundation}}
'''Space platform foundations''' are used to extend the dimensions of a [[space platform]]. Nearly any building can be placed on the foundation to add to the functionality of a space platform. They are also essential components for the [[space platform starter pack]], which creates a space platform when launched with a [[Rocket silo|rocket]]. The starting space platform will not be large enough for other buildings, so more space platform foundations must be sent to the platform to extend its size.

=== Notes ===
* Each platform starter pack comes with 10 space platform foundations in the inventory and 36 space platform foundations placed around the Space platform hub.
* Space platforms cannot be built with holes in them. If the player tries to create the hole, the space platform foundation will not build and will display a warning.
* It takes 5 space platform foundations to increase a ship's weight by one ton (200kg or 0.2 tons per platform). This is different from the rocket launch weight of 20 kg per Space platform foundation (50 tiles / 1000kg = 20kg).
* When building a space platform from a blueprint or remote map view, each tile has a 1-second expansion animation. Each space platform foundation will do the expansion animation on its three exposed faces for 1 tile of length before repeating.
* When a space platform foundation gets destroyed, everything not connected to the [[space platform hub]] will be destroyed.

Captive biter spawner

2025-03-20T08:03:17Z

Dogman15: /* Food consumption */

{{Languages}}
{{:Infobox:Captive biter spawner}}
{{About/Space age}}
A '''captive biter spawner''' is a special production building that is initially unlocked on [[Gleba]]{{SA}} and is used to produce [[biter egg|biter eggs]]. A captive biter spawner has no [[module]] slots, is unaffected by [[beacon]]s, and cannot be connected to either circuit or logistic networks. A captive spawner cannot be removed by the player or [[construction robot]]s, but can be destroyed via weapon fire, at which point it will spawn a small biter.

== Biter egg production ==
These buildings are solely used to produce [[biter egg|biter eggs]], for which they are the only source in the game. Producing biter eggs does not require setting a recipe nor providing any ingredients other than a constant influx of fuel in the form of [[bioflux]]. A captive biter spawner can hold a maximum of 100 biter eggs, which they produce at a rate of 5 eggs every 10 seconds, or 0.5 /s. The production cycle continues when the output slot is full, even though no additional eggs are being produced. Biter eggs held in the output slot will not start to spoil until removed.

== Obtainment ==
They can be obtained in two different ways. They can be "built" by firing a [[capture bot rocket]]{{SA}} at a [[Enemies#Nests|biter spawner]] on [[Nauvis]], which will slowly transform the spawner into a captive one. Alternatively, after reaching [[Aquilo]]{{SA}} and researching the relevant [[Captive biter spawner (research)|technology]], the player can craft captive biter spawners themselves, which can be manually placed. While in the player's inventory or another container, a captive spawner has a spoilage time of 30 minutes, at which point it will turn into a behemoth biter.

== Food consumption ==

A captive spawner will lose health at a rate of 1/second, unless fed with a supply of [[bioflux]]{{SA}}. If a captive spawner's health reaches zero, it will transform back into a normal spawner and will have to be captured again.

Previously captured and then starved [[Enemies#Nests|biter spawners]] cannot be targeted by [[turret]]s, [[personal laser defense]] or [[spidertron]]'s automatic rocket launchers, but it can still consume [[pollution]] and spawn biters which are affected by the [[Enemies#Evolution|evolution factor]].

[[Bioflux]]{{SA}} is used for food. One item of bioflux has an energy value of 6 MJ, and since the captive biter spawner consumes 100 kW of food, each item of bioflux will last for exactly one minute. With one normal quality item of bioflux lasting for two hours before it [[spoilage|spoils]], this means that 120 items of bioflux of the same age may be consumed by a single captive biter spawner before any of them spoil.

== Quality ==
Captive biter spawners with a higher quality level will ''not'' yield higher quality [[biter egg]]s.

In case a captive biter spawner reverts back into a biter spawner for any reason it will retain the quality it had as a captive biter spawner. This resulting spawner will spawn biters of the same quality, which will have the capability of forming expansion groups that will also retain their quality level upon successful expansion - creating more quality biter or [[Enemies#Spitters|spitter]] spawners, and even quality [[Enemies#Worms|worms]]. Failing to contain such reverted spawners can lead to the planet becoming populated by higher quality enemies.

Laser turret

2025-03-19T03:21:28Z

Dogman15:

{{Languages}}
{{:Infobox:Laser turret}}
'''Laser turrets''' are an advanced defense building with longer range than the [[gun turret]], laser damage, and use [[Electric system|electricity]] to operate instead of [[Firearm magazine|ammo]] (and a smaller amount of energy when idle). Each shot costs 800kJ of energy; as the shooting speed increases through upgrades, so does the power required to keep firing.

Using laser turrets to ward off attacks can cause electricity usage spikes, these can be offset by using [[accumulator]]s (or [[Storage_tank#Usage_as_.22Energy-tank.22|steam storage]] and excess [[steam turbine]]s).

On [[space platform]]s{{SA}}, lasers can be effective against small [[asteroids]]{{SA}}, which have only 20% laser resistance and 100 health. Other asteroids have laser resistance of 90% or more, making lasers relatively useless against them. Large groups of high [[quality]]{{SA}} lasers (which have extended range, not damage) can be useful against medium asteroids if they also have enough damage upgrades.

[[Enemies#Wrigglers|Pentapods]]{{SA}} on [[Gleba]]{{SA}} have high laser resistance (50% for wrigglers, strafers, and egg rafts, 80% for stompers) so laser turrets are ineffective against them.

The [[demolisher]]s{{SA}} on [[Vulcanus]]{{SA}} have 100% laser resistance.

Dogman15: /* Abandoned rail base */

{{Languages}}
{{about|Factorio's in-game tutorial|community-created tutorials hosted on this wiki|Tutorials}}[[File:New game gui.png|thumb|right|The menu to enter the tutorial.]]
The '''tutorial''' is Factorio's equivalent of a story mode. The tutorial consists of pre-generated levels where the [[player]] must accomplish some preset tasks, such as obtaining a certain amount of resources or scanning the surroundings with [[radar]]s. Upon level completion, a game finish report is given, similar to freeplay, where kills and completion time are tallied. Completing the tutorial is not necessary to play freeplay.

To start the tutorial, select ''Single player'' from the title screen, ''New game'' and then ''Tutorial'' in the ''Main game'' section.

== Levels ==
=== Crash ===
In the first level, the player is tasked with mining some resources which are needed to craft and place a [[burner mining drill]] and a [[stone furnace]].

=== Mining outpost ===
In the second level, the player is tasked with building some more furnaces and mining drills. They will encounter some [[enemies|small biters]] that they need to fight off. The end goal is to carry 150 [[iron plate]]s, 50 [[copper plate]]s and 75 [[coal]] in the player inventory.

=== Power plant ===
In the third, the player is tasked with completing an existing steam engine and boiler setup by placing an [[offshore pump]], some [[pipe]]s and [[small electric pole]]s. Then, the player is tasked with building 3 [[radar]]s and letting them scan 50 sectors as the final goal. During this, the player may get attacked by biters.

=== Science and automation ===
The fourth level introduces science and research. The player is tasked with building a [[lab]] and researching [[stone wall]]s, and then [[Automobilism (research)|automobilism]]. Then, the player must build and load a [[car]] with materials. There are several nearby biter [[nests]] which the player must attack or defend against.

=== Abandoned rail base ===
In the fifth and last level of the tutorial, the player arrives at a partially destroyed factory with an inoperable railway stop. The player is tasked with repairing the base and setting up automated rail transport to nearby iron and copper ore mines, then loading their car again with supplies, including [[Piercing rounds magazine|piercing rounds]] and [[solar panel]]s. After meeting the objectives, the player can continue to explore this level as long as they want. Some of the things to discover include a distant solar and [[accumulator]] farm, abandoned [[laser turret]]s, and [[uranium ore]] that cannot be mined due to [[sulfuric acid]] not being available (there are no [[crude oil]] patches on the map, and [[research]] is capped).

== Mechanics ==
=== {{NavboxIconLink|Spoilage}} ===
Most biological products on Gleba are "spoilable". A spoilable item has an inherent timer attached to it, which begins at the item's creation. When the timer reaches 0, the item is transformed into [[spoilage]],{{SA}} with a few exceptions. This process is inevitable and cannot be stopped.

The exact time differs per item, ranging anywhere from a few minutes to 2 hours. This means that item throughput is more important than ever on Gleba, and buffering a large stockpile is ineffective, as items can spoil within containers.

When crafting with spoilable items, the final product will inherit the freshness value of the ingredients. The three exceptions are [[Iron Bacteria|iron]] and [[copper bacteria]] cultivation, [[pentapod eggs]] and [[fish]] breeding, whose recipes will always result in a 100% fresh product, regardless of the freshness of the ingredients.

When crafting with two different spoilable items of different freshness values, like in the [[agricultural science pack]]{{SA}} and [[bioflux]]{{SA}} recipes, the final product's freshness is determined by the average of the ingredients' freshness.

The agricultural science pack does spoil, which will gradually decrease its research value, so the player is incentivized to build a fast space platform to bring them back to Nauvis.

Spoilable items are used as ingredients in a few non-spoilable items, such as the [[biochamber]]{{SA}}. In these, the freshness value of the ingredients do not matter in the product being produced.

Electric system

2024-11-06T18:48:09Z

Dogman15: /* Steam tanks as power storage */

{{Languages}}
The '''Electric system''' is used to power a lot of different machines; the game can hardly be played without using electricity. Every machine has its own internal electric capacity. When energy is produced, it is evenly distributed to all machines in the network that need electricity. Electricity is one of two ways machines can be powered, the other being [[burner devices]] running off of [[fuel]].

== Network mechanics ==
=== Generators ===

There are four ways to produce electricity. More details about each method are available on the [[Power production]] page.

# [[Steam engine]]s – Most common, requires [[Boiler|Boilers]] (which consume [[Water]] and fuel).
# [[Solar panel]]s – Free energy, but only works during daylight. Usually used with Accumulators.
# [[Accumulator]]s – Energy storage, see below
# [[Steam turbine]]s – High-power Steam engines. Used to generate power from a [[Nuclear reactor]].

If a network consumes less power than is produced, its Steam Engines and Turbines will slow down so that no power is wasted.

=== Storage ===
[[File:electrical-network-example-2.png|thumb|256px|Accumulator array consisting of 48 accumulators and a substation providing 240 MJ storage capacity.]]

Energy can be stored in:
* [[Fuel]]. It can be burnt to generate power.
* [[Accumulator]]s. Accumulators charge using excess power generated, and discharge when demand exceeds normal production.
* [[Steam]]. It can be created in [[boiler]]s or [[heat exchanger]]s and stored in the [[storage tank]], allowing steam engines or steam turbines to operate on-demand.
* [[Heat pipe]]s. Heat pipes can buffer up to 500MJ of energy across their working range of 500°C to 1000°C, although in practice this will be less depending on distance due to the way heat transfer works.

==== Steam tanks as power storage ====
A storage tank filled with [[heat exchanger]] 500°C steam stores around 2.4GJ; a storage tank filled with [[boiler]] 165°C Steam stores 750MJ.

There are several advantages to storing energy in storage tanks compared with storing it in an accumulator:
* The energy density of a storage tank tile is much higher than it is with accumulators.
** For 165°C steam (produced with [[boiler|boilers]]), a single storage tank stores as much as 150 accumulators: <code>750MJ / 5MJ = 150</code>
** For 500°C steam (produced using [[Heat exchanger|heat exchangers]]), a single storage tank stores as much as 480 accumulators: <code>2400MJ / 5MJ = 480</code>
* A [[nuclear reactor]] always fully burns a fuel cell, releasing 8GJ (or more with the multiple reactor bonus) even if power demand is lower. The excess energy can be stored as steam.
* A single [[accumulator]]'s maximum discharge rate is 300kW. On a very heavy load (e.g. [[laser turret]] firing), a small accumulator array may not discharge fast enough, causing power disruptions. A steam engine can produce 900kW of energy from the stored steam (3 times faster discharge rate), and a turbine can produce 5800kW (6.4 times faster discharge rate). In other words, a number of turbines or steam engines with steam storage can cope with much higher bursts than the same number of accumulators.
* Steam can be transferred via trains and then consumed remotely via turbines or steam engines. This essentially "transports electricity" using trains.

====Energy storage density comparison====

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Storage !! Capacity !! Accumulators !! Size !! Density (MJ/tile)
|-
| Accumulator || 5MJ || 1 || 2x2 || 1.25
|-
| Steam tank (165°C) || 750MJ || 150 || 3x3 || 83.33
|-
| Steam tank (500°C) || 2400MJ || 480 || 3x3 || 266.66
|-
| Heat pipe || 500MJ1 || 100 || 1x1 || 5001
|-
|}

(1) Theoretical maximum, actual capacity depends on distance due to heat transfer mechanics.

=== Distribution ===
[[File:Electric-network-1.png|thumb|256px|Simple example of a small electric network.]]
Power poles are used to transmit energy. There are 4 types of power pole, each having differently configured properties. The properties are coverage area (area in which machines are placed to be affected by the pole) and wire reach (the distance across which a pole can connect with another pole). If two poles of different wire reach are to be connected, the smallest of either applies.

# [[Small electric pole]] – Second smallest coverage area, shortest cable length, available without research.
# [[Medium electric pole]] – Second largest coverage area, average cable length.
# [[Big electric pole]] – Smallest coverage area, longest cable length.
# [[Substation]] – Largest coverage area, second longest cable length, but most expensive to build.

=== Consumption ===
[[File:machines_slow_electricity.gif|thumb|231px|right|Two [[assembling machine]]s running on very low electricity.]]The majority of machines in Factorio consume electricity. There are two aspects to a machine's energy use.

* Energy consumption – The energy consumed by the machine while it is actively carrying out a process (crafting an item, moving an item, etc). If an electric network does not have enough power generation to supply all the machines in it, the electricity will be evenly spread across all machines in the network (based on each machine's demand), and all machines will slow down proportionally to the power available.
** For example: If an [[Assembling machine 3]] (210kW) and an [[Electric mining drill]] (90kW) are on a network (90+210 = 300kW), but the network only has 3 [[Solar panel]]s (3×60kW = 180kW) to power them, the Assembling machine and Mining drill will both run at 60% speed (180/300=0.6).
* Drain – The energy consumed by the machine whether it is active or not. Most machines consume a small amount of power just being connected to a network. This is usually negligible, but can become notable in small factories where power is limited. Drain is cumulative with energy cosumption - for example, an active [[Assembling machine 2]] will consume 155 kW (150kW energy consumption + 5kW drain).

=== Connection ===
[[File:Disconnect power pole.gif|frame|right|An individual connection is removed by redrawing the connection with copper cable.]]
A network is created by placing electrical generators (such as [[Steam engine]]s or [[Solar panel]]s) and electrical consumers, then ensuring a connection between the generator and consumer can be made using Distributors (such as [[Small electric pole]]s) that are connected together. Electric poles cover differently sized areas depending on their type. The area of coverage appears as a blue overlay around the pole. If two poles are placed close enough, the poles connect automatically. A building is connected if one tile of the building is in a covered area. Hovering the cursor over a pole reports the current satisfaction of power demands in that pole's network, and clicking on a pole will provide a detailed GUI about that pole's electric network. (See below)

* Use shift-click on a existing pole to remove all its connections to other poles.
* Unconnected poles can be connected with a single [[copper cable]] dragging from pole to pole (Left click on the ''bottom'' of the pole with the cable in hand.)
* Individual connections can be removed by "connecting" them with copper cable. This will not consume the cable.
* You can use place-key (default left mouse) while running/driving to auto-place poles at their greatest connectible distance while covering all unpowered entities on the way. This allows for complete efficiency when connecting long distances. If connecting over long distances, using [[Big electric pole]]s is recommended.

A newly-placed electric pole will be automatically connected to nearby poles according to the following rules:
# It will be connected to other available poles, starting with the closest one.
# It won't be connected to 2 poles connected to each other (it won't form a 3 pole triangle).
# It will not be connected to more than 5 other poles.

== Electric network info screen ==
[[File:Electric network info screen.png|thumb|400px|The Electric network info GUI]]
[[File:electric_satisfaction_stress.gif|thumb|390px|Slight stress on the electric system's satisfaction.]]

The Electric network info GUI can be accessed by left-clicking any electric pole nearby.

'''You can see only the info from the electric network to which that pole is connected!''' Unlike the production-info (press P) the electric network info is not measured globally, but by network.

# '''Satisfaction''' – The current amount of energy consumed by the network. This bar should be full. If it is not full, it means that the machines connected to the network are consuming more power than is produced, and the bar will change color to yellow (>50%) or red (<50%).
# '''Production''' – The current energy produced by the network. This bar should never be full. If it is full, it means that the machines connected to the network are consuming all available energy. The less full this bar is, the more surplus energy is available.
# '''[[Accumulator|Accumulator]] capacity''' – How much energy is currently held inside of the accumulators connected to your network. Measured in [[Units|joule]]s; 1 Joule = 1 Watt * 1 second (see also [[wikipedia:Joule]]). This bar should be able to fill fully before emptying again.
# '''Timespan''' - Set the [[Time|time]] span for the graphs below. "5s" means over the last 5 seconds.
# '''Consumption Graph''' – Shows the consumption of the different parts of the network over time.
# '''Production Graph''' – Shows the production of the different producers of the network over time.
# '''Detailed Consumption''' – A list of consumers from highest power consumption to lowest. In the picture example, 47 [[radar]]s consume the most power, at 14.1 MW.
# '''Detailed Production''' – A list of producers from highest power production to lowest. In the picture example, 1,300 [[accumulator]]s produce the most electricity in the factory.

Note that the timeframe influences the shown detailed production/consumption: the displayed watts is the total average power production or consumption over the full time. Setting longer timeframes also allows seeing the past production or consumption of machines even if they are not currently connected to the network.

== Network priorities ==

Electricity is provided on a priority basis. The demand for energy is satisfied by generators in following order:

* [[Solar panel]]s – Top priority; they always work at maximum performance available, unless they can cover all demand of the network, in which case they match demand.
* [[Steam engine]]s and [[Steam turbine]]s – They match whatever demand solar panels cannot satisfy; note that Engines and Turbines do have the same priority, leftover demand is equally divided among both.
* [[Accumulator]] – Last resort. They are only discharged when demand cannot be met by other means. They are also only charged when all demand is met, and there is yet more power available.

There may be situations where different behaviour is desired (such as solar panels combined with accumulators for night-and-day delivery), in which case clever use of a [[power switch]] and the [[circuit network]] is in order.

{{:Infobox:Lightning collector}}
{{Stub}}
{{About/Space age}}
The '''Lightning Collector''' is an upgraded version of the [[lightning rod]] from [[Fulgora]]{{SA}} that protects a larger area from getting struck by lightning, as well as converting each strike to more electricity than its counterpart.
 
 
Similarly to the lightning rod, the lightning collector cannot be crafted on any planet other than Fulgora, due to the other planets' lack of a strong magnetic field.

Cargo landing pad

{{:Infobox:Cargo landing pad}}
{{Stub}}

The '''cargo landing pad''' is a large storage item that is part of the [[logistic network]]. It acts as an 8x8 [[passive provider chest]] with a capacity of 80 slots. Only one can be placed on the surface at a time.

When the [[rocket silo]] sends a rocket with a [[satellite]] into space, the cargo landing pad will receive 1,000 [[space science pack]]s. If the landing pad is full, the science will be deposited on the ground and marked for deconstruction. The science will be delivered to the landing pad regardless of its distance from the rocket silo.

The landing pad can be connected to the [[circuit network]] to read its contents like other containers.

== Space Age ==
{{About/Space age}}
In [[Space Age]]{{SA}}, the cargo landing pad further acts as a hub for orbital deliveries. It acts as a [[requester chest]] for orbiting [[space platform]]s{{SA}}. Platforms that are stopped over the current planet may have their cargo dropped down to satisfy the landing pad's requests. The landing pad can only receive one stack of items at a time.

Placing a [[cargo bay]]{{SA}} that is touching the landing pad next to at least one tile will increase the landing pad's inventory size by 20 slots each (increasable with higher [[quality]]{{SA}}) and increase the number of item stacks that can be dropped from the platform at once. If a landing pad's inventory is full, a platform will not drop any cargo until a slot is free.

If the '''trash unrequested''' box is ticked, the landing pad will automatically move all items from its inventory that are not currently requested to its trash slots.

* Removed game.on_save function. There should be no need for it and it was causing too many problems.
* Lua on_load function is not called when saving the game anymore. It is called only on actual load now.
* Lua API calls '''on_load''', '''on_init''', '''on_configuration_changed''', '''on_event''' and '''generate_event_name''' have been moved to a new namespace called '''script''' (so from now use '''script.on_load'''(...)). This will break many mods! The callback registered in '''on_load''' function doesn't have access to the game API. This is to avoid common desyncs. The '''on_init''' and '''on_configuration_changed''' still retain the access to the game API.
* '''on_configuration_changed''' is fired when the map version changes, a mod version changes, a mod is added, or a mod is removed and passes "data": Pushes old_version="x.x.x", new_version="x.x.x" when loading map versions other than the current version When a mod version is changed it appears as a table of mod Changes {["Mod name"] = {old_version="x.x.x", new_version="x.x.x"}, ...} When a mod is added it appears as: ["Mod name"] = {old_version=nil, new_version="x.x.x"} When a mod is removed it appears as: ["Mod name"] = {old_version="x.x.x", new_version=nil}
* Changed LuaGameScript::makefile to LuaGameScript::'''write_file''' and added an optional third parameter bool to append.

=== Modding ===
* Replaced entity type "rail" with types "straight*rail" and "curved*rail". Property "bending_type" is optional for rail entities, but is still mandatory for rail remnants.

* Default mods are always enabled if mod*list.json is lost (even when enable new mods option is disabled).
* LuaSurface can be invalid when read from LuaPlayer and Player entity if the player is disconnected from the game (MP disconnect) * use LuaSurface.valid to check.
Note: LuaSurface currently never switches between valid and not valid so the check only has to be done when it's first read from the LuaPlayer.
* Changed default maximum range of projectiles from 10^308 to 1000.

== 0.12.0 ==

=== Features ===
* The game is now finished by launching the rocket with satellite.
* Added chain signals, they can be used to make more complicated junctions and stations without deadlocks.
* Added personal roboport as modular armor equipment. Once it is active, it uses the materials and robots in the players inventory. It supports all the tasks construction robots can do like building blueprints, repairing structures, deconstruction etc.
* Added logistic trash fields to the character GUI. They supply items into the logistic system in the same way active provider chests do.
* Added combinators (Arithmetic Combinator, Decider Combinator and Constant combinator). These allow more advanced manipulation with the circuit network logic ([https://www.factorio.com/blog/post/fff*88 more])
* The Lamp, Storage Tank, Small Pump and Offshore Pump can be connected to the circuit network.
* Multiplayer latency hiding (gives impression that some common tasks are performed immediately) Applies to character movement, mining buildings, building, fast replacing, opening guis, etc.
* Stone brick can be used to build stone path. (30% walking speed increase).
* Concrete can be created. The concrete can be used to build concrete floors (40% walking speed increase).
* Terrain modifies vehicle friction force (sand: 1.8, grass: 1.6, dirt: 1.4, stone path: 1.1, concrete: 0.8).
* Trees degenerate slowly when there high pollution levels.
* Lab research is now continuous. Science packs have progress bars of usage. This means that 20 labs doing research with 10 units will still be faster than 10 labs and the science packs aren't wasted.
* Assembling machine input slot can contain more than the usual stack size when the recipe requirement demands it (3 X recipe demand). Example: The rocket silo requires 1000 steel, while the stack size is 100, but the input stack can hold enough.
* Added / updated sounds for biters, spitters, worm, spawner, flamethrower, tank, lasers, etc.
* New ambient [[Factorio Soundtrack|soundtrack]] added. Added mechanism that prevents playing track that was played recently. The ambient player alternates between neutral wind/environment sounds and soundtrack songs.
* Mousing over a train will show you its current path and blocks it can't enter.
* Locomotives now show the contents of attached cargo wagons in their tooltip.
* Trees regenerate health slowly.
* Added support for transferring contents/settings when fast*replacing all entity types.
* Added modules to the alt*view for entities that support modules.
* Factorio can run as a dedicated server without Graphics ([http://www.factorioforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Multiplayer#Headless_server more]).
* Basic PvP: New forces can now be created and merged back together; a cease*fire can be agreed upon between forces
* IPv6 support for multiplayer.
* DNS names can be used when connecting to multiplayer game.
* Enabled mining trees/ghosts while holding blueprints to be built.
* Added explosive cannon shells.
* Building blueprints over existing ghosts restores the ghost time to live to full.

=== Changes ===
* Disabled loading of saves before 0.9.0 version (You can use 0.9.8 to load older saves and re*save them).
* Removed rocket defense entity.
* Items on transport belts don't go off the belt at the end, so the transport belt has to go directly in front of the required inserter.
* Reduced number of rendered Roboport connections.
* The trade in the marketplace only happens if the player can accept the trade items.
* Inserters can now extract from Roboports and Beacons.
* Inserters now take items from right behind them, not from the center of the pickup target entity.
* Copy entity settings mechanism now remembers only the last entity copied from. Also mechanism allows copy/paste across different entities of the same type (i.e. assembling machine 1 *> assembling machine 2) and from assembling machines to requester chests (sets filters to 2 x requirements of the assembling machine).
* Trees have generally smaller bounding boxes, so it is easier to walk through forest.
* Power armor modules generate and consume 100 times more power in order to be able to charge construction robots.
* The construction robots don't build gate in the gap between the rolling stock vehicles. They wait for the train to get away.
* Player's logistic filters are now remembered after respawn in multiplayer
* All turrets are now 2x2 (incorrectly stated as 4x4); laser turrets are 4x more expensive and powerful, gun turrets are 2x more expensive
* Roboport tooltip now shows correct numbers of construction and logistic robots separately.
* When a train loses a path and cannot find a new one, it stops immediately. This prevents it from riding into parts of the rail network, from where it can't find a path.
* Improvements to circuit network wire connection. You can connect multiple wires of the same color to the same entity.
* The autosave dialog no longer cancels an active blueprint or deconstruction planner selection if the mouse button is still held after the autosave finishes
* Number of autosave slots is now configurable through config.ini (no GUI).

=== Optimizations ===
* Overall optimization of train + belt heavy factories is roughly 66% compared to 0.11, this means that the game runs 3 times faster.
* Optimised the transport belt movement.
* Optimised the rotated bounding box collisions checks (trains).
* Optimised the smoke update.
* Optimised the solar panel, all the solar panel input is merged, so the count doesn't matter.
* Optimised the accumulators by merging then into groups, where typical factory has 1 group per network.
* Optimised the land mine activation mechanism.
* Smaller multiplayer heartbeat packet size.
* Optimised adding/removing of roboport, robots keep their tasks if they can.
* Path finder will terminate when search is too long. This avoids save explosions (see [https://forums.factorio.com/12580 more]).
* Optimised rendering for large logistic networks.
* Fixed that the Graphics were saved twice in the RAM memory.
=== Graphics ===
* New Graphics of the combat robots.
* New Graphics of the laser/gun turrets, their color is now player/force dependent.

* Fixed that control*clicking entire inventory into a machine installed modules.
* Fixed another instance of the "Trying to make chunk at unreasonable position" bug ([https://forums.factorio.com/13399 more]).
* Requester chests no longer request more than they can store. E.g. if a requester chest only has one free slot and the requester slider is set to request 20000 iron ore, the chest will only request one stack from the network ([https://forums.factorio.com/4604 more])

Programmable speaker

{{:Infobox:Programmable speaker}}

The ''programmable speaker'' is a circuit network entity that is capable of producing alerts in the form of sound, and elements on nearby players' guis. It can be connected to the circuit network to produce an alert when a signal drops below a certain value, for example.

== GUI and configuration ==

[[File:Programmable_speaker_ui.png|330px]]

It can be toggled whether the sound plays globally so that it can be heard anywhere on the map, or locally so it will only be audible in the immediate vicinity of the speaker. As a courtesy, only enable global play on multiplayer when it is important that all players be notified. Only 50 sounds can be heard at once due to a game limitation.

The volume of the programmable speaker can be controlled in the GUI. This determines the audio volume, and the carry distance if global playback is unticked. The range at full volume appears to be 64 tiles.

[[File:speaker_map_alert.gif]] 
As well as playing a sound, it can also be set to send a GUI text alert so the player can see what has caused the alarm. Both text and an icon can be specified, as seen in the check mark image above. In order to show an [[Alerts|alert]] in players' GUIs, "Show alert" must be ticked. Additional options will be shown that allow the player to select an icon and text for the alert.

The "Allow polyphony" check-box determines whether more than one sound may be played at once. Essentially, when hooking up a constant signal to a programmable speaker, with polyphony enabled, sounds will repeat extremely rapidly. (10 per second or so) Without polyphony, this is limited to about 1 per half second. Disabling polyphony is useful to avoid alerts being spammed and causing hearing damage. However, if producing music, polyphony may be needed.

The "Circuit value is pitch" check-box allows dynamically changing the pitch of the sound created by changing the circuit value. This is useful for music production. If the player simply wants a sound to be created whenever the conditional is met, they should disable this check-box.

== Available sounds ==
The sounds a loudspeaker can play include the following instruments:
* Piano
* Bass 
* Lead synth
* Sawtooth synth
* Square synth
* Celesta
* Vibraphone
* Plucked 
* Steel drum
* Reverse cymbal
* Drum kit

The '''Factorio Soundtrack''' was written by Daniel James Taylor. It consists of 26 tracks of music nearly 70 minutes long. It was added in the [[Version history/0.12.0|0.12.0]] version. "BONUS - Factorio Gameplay Trailer" was added in [[Version history/1.1.0|version 1.1.0]], for the game's main menu. How the game picks which track to play is based on information that can be read at [[Prototype/AmbientSound]].

{{:Infobox:Iron axe}}

The Iron axe is a tool used for the manual mining of resources, for cutting trees, and for collecting items deployed on the ground (so they can be placed elsewhere). They can also be used for melee fighting when the player is out of ammo.

They are mostly used in the beginning of the game where the player has no resources to set up drills to automatically mine, and when the better [[Steel axe]] cannot yet be made. It is possible to stack multiple Iron axes in the tool slot.

== Durability ==

Durability of the Iron axe is consumed based on the "mining hardness" of what is being mined, at a rate of

<code>Durability loss = Mining hardness × 60 × Duration (s)</code>

For example, mining one coal that has a hardness of 0.9 and takes 2.08 seconds to mine consumes

<code>Durability loss = 0.9 × 60 × 2.08 = 112.5 durability</code>

== History ==

{{history|0.17.0|
* Removed pickaxes and replaced them with research effects.}}

{{history|0.10.3|
* Update icon}}

{{history|0.2.6|
* Can be used as melee weapon.}}

{{:Infobox:Steam}}
'''Steam''' is a [[fluid system|gas]] created by heating water in a [[boiler]] or [[heat exchanger]]. After being distributed via [[pipe]]s, steam can be used to generate electricity via [[steam engine]]s and [[steam turbine]]s. Steam is also used in [[coal liquefaction]] in [[oil refinery|oil refineries]]. Since steam is a fluid, it can be stored in a [[storage tank]].

== Power generation ==
The amount of energy contained in steam is linearly proportional to its temperature (minus 15°C ambient temperature). The energy storage of steam is exactly ''200 Joule / unit / degree Celsius'', so for every degree increase in temperature of a single unit of fluid requires exactly 200 Joules.

In all cases, steam produced in boilers is 165°C and steam from heat exchangers is 500°C. This higher temperature equates to a higher energy density of the same number of units of steam, meaning: higher temperature, more energy per volume. Steam suffers no thermal losses sitting or flowing through [[pipe]]s or [[storage tank]]s, the energy put into water to create steam is the same amount of energy you get back out from it since both steam engines and turbines are 100% efficient.

For example, a storage tank that holds 25000 units of Steam at 165°C contains...
<pre style="width: 68%;padding-right: 0em;">(200 Joule / unit / Celsius) * 25000 units * (165°C-15°C) = 750 000 000 joules = 750 MJ </pre>

A storage tank holding 25000 units of Steam at 500°C thus contains 2.425 ''giga''joules of energy, a surprisingly large amount equal to 485 fully charged [[accumulator]]s!
(200 Joule / unit / Celsius) * 25000 units * (500°C-15°C) = 2 425 000 000 joules = 2.425 GJ

If the temperature of the steam is lower than the steam engine or turbine can handle, then the power output will be lower than optimal, but no energy will be wasted. However, if the temperature of the steam exceeds the maximum temperature of the steam engine or turbine, then the power output is capped at maximum, and the extra energy in the steam is wasted. Other than this difference, either steam engines or turbines can be used to generate power off of steam from any source.

== Trivia ==
* The fill meter on steam storage tanks fills from the top instead of from the bottom.
* Steam is the only non-liquid fluid in Factorio.
* Steam is the only fluid that cannot be stored in [[barrel]]s.

== History ==

{{history|0.15.10|
* Introduced as separate fluid. Previously it counted as Water, with a >100 temperature.}}
