Copper cables are very important for manufacturing circuits and electrical connections.
Copper cable can also be used. Select the Copper cable from your inventory, and connect it with a left click to two [[Electric network#Distribution|Electric poles]]. This way, you can manually wire some of the more complex systems, like [[Power_production/Dealing_with_priorities|making steam enginges work only when accumulators are empty.]]

Module

2014-12-09T13:53:19Z

Wolfzoon: /* Productivity Module */ Stacking with speed modules

{{Languages}}
Modules are items used to enhance existing buildings' capabilities. They are expensive, require appropriate research and are produced slowly, but can eventually greatly improve the efficiency of a factory.

:If you want more products per second, use a speed module.
:If you want more products per input resource, use a productivity module.
:If you want more products per watt of energy, use an efficiency module.

In addition to improving the efficiency of the factory, modules are also used in many late- and endgame recipes such as modular armor and its equipment.

=== Speed Module ===

| 1 || +20% || +50%
|-
| 2 || +30% || +60%
|-
| 3 || +50% || +70%
|-
|}

=== Productivity Module ===
Productivity modules add a second "production bar" at item producing buildings and labs. It fills at the speed of (production - 100%). When it reaches 100%, an extra item (or items, in recipes that result in more than one) is produced.

Productivity modules have some '''[[Module/Productivity module limitations|usage limitations]]!

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Level !! Productivity !! [[Electricity]] consumption !! Speed !! [[Pollution]] multiplier
|-
| 1 || +4% || +40% || -15% || +30%
|-
| 2 || +6% || +60% || -15% || +40%
|-
| 3 || +10% || +80% || -15% || +50%
|-
|}

Don't be fooled by the extra energy consumption! The energy consumption is each second, but the decrease in speed makes this worse per product made. Eventually energy is "free" because of solar energy and accumulators, but there is a limit to how much consumption is practical. The energy consumption per product made is bigger than the simple "+consumption" stat would make you think, but in a likewise unintuitive way, adding speed modules by [[Basic Beacon]] is better than expected. While speed modules strictly add energy consumption, their effect on speed counters this.

{| class="wikitable"

|-

|-
|}

While the effects are biggest with the version 3 chips, this stacking effect is also very noticeable with version 2 chips. Or if the final 10% productivity doesn't matter that much, consider putting a speed chip in there too.

== Usage tips ==

More modules of the same type in one device will give diminishing returns. Because of that, it is generally more effective to add '''efficiency modules with speed and/or productivity modules''' to get more bonuses over the crafting cascade (assembly lines), especially when assembling machines are part of logistics network. This applies to situations where resources are plentiful but finite.

This is has been [http://www.factorioforums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=5705 calculated through in this discussion].

Filling the device with '''speed modules''' is useful when a resource is infinite but the amount of resource pools is low. The best example would be '''oil deposits'''. Another good place to use speed modules would be for assembly machines which make products that take a long time to make. Examples would be engine units.

Filling devices with '''productivity modules''' is recommended when resources are scarce. Example would be '''alien artifact''' processing.

Filling devices with '''efficiency modules''' is recommended for electric furnaces as these use a lot of power.

Modules are also able to control [[Pollution]], as '''pollution depends also on [[Energy]] usage'''. So reducing a machines energy usage by 40% with a efficiency module 2 will also reduce its pollution by 40%. Beware as this also works vica versa!

== Examples of usage ==
[[Electric furnace]]s are huge power hogs at 180 kW per furnace. 1 basic efficiency module reduces it by 54 kW (-30%) - almost a [[Solar panel]] worth of power.

[[Electric mining drill]]s create 9 units of [[Pollution]] with no efficiency modules and 1.8 with 2 basic ones.

Same [[Electric mining drill]] with 3 Productivity modules 3 would create 76.5 units of [[Pollution]].

== Limitations on Productivity Module ==

The productivity module has '''[[Module/Productivity module limitations|some limitations]]!

== Efficiency and Effectivity ==

Gun turrets are very basic defensive structures and the easiest way of automatic defense.

* Gun turrets are your first defense weapon.
* They are cheap and ammunition can be refilled by [[Inserters]].
* You can fill the bullets into them by hand. But you should automate that, use a chest, a belt and some inserters to do that job constantly.
* They don't need any power to operate (only the inserters to fill them, but you can use burner inserter for that job), so they are not dependent to electricity.
* With upgrades (gun + turret defence upgrades) and [[Piercing rounds magazine]] gun turrets are a much harder weapon, than laser turrets '''( [http://www.factorioforums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=4363&start=20 see thread])
* Gun turrets are always sized 1x2 even when rotated which makes them somewhat problematic to use with rotated [[Blueprint]]s. It is no problem to mirrow the blueprint, but when rotated by 90° they may 'overwrite' an inserter or let one tile free between them. To workaround this use two blueprints, one for north-south and one for west-east usage.
* The gun turret damage upgrade stacks multiplicatively with the bullet damage upgrade. Fully upgraded this means 2.2*2.2=4.84 times as much damage; 9.68 damage with regular bullets or 24.2 damage with armor-piercing bullets, an armor piercing bullet kills small enemies in one blow, and deals more damage to the heavy biter than a laser shot does.

Laser turret shooting speed 6 has a relatively small effect, consider researching Laser turret damage upgrade 5 and 6 instead.

Turrets deal 5/5.5/6/7/8/9/11 damage, depending on upgrade. As the enemies do not yet have laser resistance, they deal full damage. 
Hits to kill, assuming only laser turrets are used:
