Quick summary
Furnaces are used to smelt resources into usable products for further usage.
This makes them a key building for development and automation.
Starting with very basic stone furnaces the player can advance through research and replace them with more efficient and faster furnaces later in the game.
Furnaces with module slots are affected by beacons. Currently this is only the case for electric furnaces.
