	~~A game-tick (or just "tick") is 1/60 of a [[Game-second]].~~

	~~Everything in Factorio is calculated with that base. For example the speed of anything is internally calculated in [[Tile]]/tick.~~

	The real-world duration of a game-tick depends on the speed of your computer, and is at least 1/60th of a second (0.01667 seconds). A tick can last longer when the game stops (say, to autosave) or if the framerate drops below 60FPS.

	~~=== What is done during one tick? ===~~

	~~[https://www.factorio.com/blog/post/fff-70 This FFF-article] explains what the game engine calculates on every tick.~~
