The Biochamber is a biological variant of the assembly machine, unlocked on Gleba. Unlike most other production buildings, it does not require electricity, but rather a steady supply of nutrients to operate. It has a built-in 50% productivity bonus.

One nutrients item will power a biochamber for 4 seconds. This can be reduced by Efficiency modules or increased by other modules, in exactly the same way as other machines.

An inactive biochamber uses no energy, but nutrients contained in its fuel slot continue to spoil.
