EstebanLB: 1J = 1W * sec

Factorio and this wiki are using the following units:

; [J] Joules (Power)
: the unit for work. Please don't mix work with energy! Work is in coal, oil, hot water and must be converted into energy before usage.
: This is most important, because this conversion takes time; it's a big difference if I convert one item of coal in 1 second or in one minute.
: Dependend on this conversion-rate is the resulting/needed power; in Factorio most entities describe their needed ''power per [[Tick]]''.
: The conversion ratio is 1J = 1W per second
: A real-life example: Work for 1 liter gasoline is about 44 megajoules ([http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorenbenzin Motorbenzin]), if you convert that with liquid oxygen into energy, you can drive a rocket with it (Very, very hot! :) ). If you convert that within 1-10 Minutes it is good for driving a car. If you convert that within 1-2 hours it's just enough to warm a house.
: More reasons:
: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20061001142636AADb40G, http://www.differencebetween.net/science/difference-between-work-and-energy/ or just https://www.google.de/search?q=difference+between+energy+and+work

; [chunk] (Area, Lenght)
: a [[Chunk]] is an area of 32x32 tiles, an area of 1024 tiles, or a length of 32 tiles. See also [[Tile]].

; [s] Second ([[Time]])
: a [[Game-second]].

; [tile] (Area, Length)
: a tile is the smallest piece of map. See [[Tile]].

; [W] Watt (Energy)
: the unit for power. If something uses power, it means, that it will do work (see Joules above), as long as it is used.
: ''Work is power multiplied by time.'' For difference between work and energy see also ''Joules'' above.

Radar

2014-02-21T13:54:32Z

EstebanLB: energy consumption unit

The radar is used to continually scan sectors. It is has a high [[Electric network|power]] demand and is a priority target of [[Enemies]]. It keeps a small area (100x100 tiles) updated about all enemy movements.

Radar explores one unexplored [[chunk]] when the sector scanning progress finishes up to distance of 14 chunks. It slowly discovers a large area of the map. In other words: As long as you provide the radar with enough energy, it reveals a [[chunk]] every (???) seconds.

Destroyer capsule

2014-02-12T22:26:16Z

EstebanLB:

[[File:Destroyer-usage.gif|frame|right|Destroyers being spawned and following the player.]]
A very advanced and expensive capsule which, when used, will spawn five powerful Destroyer robots.
The Destroyer robots have infinite laser energy and will follow the player, attacking any enemies that come within range, until they are destroyed or their lifespans elapse.
To use; place the capsule in a quick-bar slot and press the corresponding quick-slot key. The capsule will fly to the position of the cursor and deploy.
{| class="wikitable"

| '''Total raw:''' || {{icon|copper-plate|351.5|Copper plate}} {{icon|iron-plate|233|Iron plate}} {{icon|steel-bar|16|Steel bar}}

|-
| '''Damage:''' || 10 [[Damage|laser]] (upgradable with [[Combat Robot Damage]] research)
|-
| '''Lifespan''' || 120 Seconds
|-
|}

== Strategy ==
Follower robots will only loosely follow the player and are subject to inertia. This allows the player to 'swing' packs of Defender/Destroyer robots into enemy bases to damage enemy structures with less risk to himself. Launching [[Distractor capsule]]s into the enemy base beforehand, as well as using the speed of the [[Car]] or [[Basic exoskeleton equipment]] can further reduce damage to the player.

== Count Limit ==
[[File:Robot-Count.png|225px|thumb|right]]The maximum number of active Destroyer robots is limited by the [[Follower robot count]] research. While using follower robots, the number of robots in-use will be visible on an icon to the right of the quick-bar. Hovering over the icon with the cursor will show the types of robots and the currently researched maximum.

Distractor capsule

2014-02-12T22:20:31Z

EstebanLB:

[[File:Distractor-usage.gif|frame|right|Distractor robots being spawned and holding position.]]
An advanced capsule which, when used, will spawn three Distractor robots at the players cursor.
Distractors have infinite laser energy and will hold their general position, attacking any enemies that come within range, until they are destroyed or their lifespans elapse. To use; place the capsule in a quick-bar slot and press the corresponding quick-slot key. The capsule will fly to the position of the cursor and deploy.

|-
|-
| '''Damage:''' || 5 [[Damage|laser]] (upgradable with [[Combat Robot Damage]] research)
|-
| '''Lifespan''' || 30 Seconds
|-
|}

== Strategy ==
Distractor robots can be useful for providing temporary defense for weak or undefended areas during Biter attacks. They are also very useful for drawing the fire of enemy worms while attacking Biter bases. Simply fire one or more Distractor capsules into the midst of enemy worms and, as long as they have not already targeted the player, the worms will prioritize killing the Distractors.
== Count Limit ==
[[File:Robot-Count.png|225px|thumb|right]]Since the Distractor robot is stationary, it is unaffected by and does not count toward the [[Follower robot count]] limit imposed on other Combat Robots. The number of concurrently spawned Distractors is limited only by their lifespan, number of Defender Capsules carried, and delay in spawning.

Goods which can be used by Player or be placed on planet.
=== Player equipment ===
==== Tools ====
Tools are used to increase the mining speed of your character. Whenever you mine [[items#Resources|resources]] or items the speed is dependent on your current tool. [[Iron_axe|Iron Axes]] are your basic tool, after research of [[Steel_processing|Steel Processing]] the even better [[Steel_axe|Steel Axe]] gets available.

Defender capsule

2014-02-12T22:17:19Z

EstebanLB: first robot do bullet phisical damage, not laser

[[File:Defender-usage.gif|frame|right|Defender being spawned and following the player.]]
A basic capsule which, when used, will spawn a single Defender robot.
The Defender has infinite ammunition and will follow the player, attacking any enemies that come within range, until it is destroyed or its lifespan elapses. To use; place the capsule in a quick-bar slot and press the corresponding quick-slot key. The capsule will fly to the position of the cursor and deploy.

Inserters

2014-01-19T15:45:34Z

EstebanLB: /* Insertion Limits */

{{sublinks|Transport network}}
Inserters are the fundamental structures of a factory. They look and work like a robot-arm and take items from behind and place them in front of it.

Inserters will
* pick up [[Items]] off the [[Ground]], off a [[Transport belts|Transport belt]], or from any object that has [[Storages/Stack|stacks]] (eg. [[Storages/Chests]], [[Furnace]]s, [[Assembling machine]]s)
* place the moved item onto the ground, on a transport belt, or into any object that has stacks.
[[File:inserter.jpg|350px]]

=== Inserter mechanics ===
Inserters will act differently depending on what they are moving items to/into so as not to monopolize all of the items being picked up and allow other machines and inserters on the same transport belt to have items.

=== Insertion Limits ===
Inserters will not insert into certain buildings if they already have, or are above of, a certain amount of items.

For example, if a boiler has 5 pieces of fuel in it, then an inserter will not insert additional fuel until it has 4 or less.

* [[Boiler]]s, [[Burner inserter]]s and [[Furnace]]s will not accept more than 5 x [[Fuel]].
* [[Gun turret]]s will not accept more than 10 x [[Magazine]] (since v0.8.4).
* [[Assembling machine]]s/[[Lab]]s: will not accept more than twice the items needed to make one of the specified item.
* For smelting, [[Furnace]]s have the same limits as assemblers. Example: no more than 10 x [[Iron plate]] is accepted for smelting into [[Steel plate]].

=== Placing ===
*Transport belts: Inserters will always place the item on the further lane.
