Object description

Space Age expansion exclusive feature.

Low density structure productivity applies an additional productivity bonus to machines when they craft low density structures (but not when using recycler recipes to produce them). Every level gives +10% productivity.

Technology	Cost	Effects
1 Low density structure productivity 1	60 1 1 1 1 1 X 1000 × 1.5(Level) (eg. 1500 for level 1, 2250 for level 2, 3375 for level 3)	10% per level

Note that the 300% productivity limit does apply to this technology. It can be researched past level 30, but it will have no practical effect.

Thresholds

The table below shows the total productivity bonus at key research levels for Low density structure productivity (research), for each machine and module configuration. Applies to the Low density structure recipe (Assembling machine 3) and the Casting low density structure recipe (Foundry). Productivity is capped at 300%; cells shown in bold indicate that the configuration has reached the cap at that level and will not improve further with additional research.
