The Foundry building converts Coal() and Iron Ore(). Both resources are produced by coal mines and iron ore mines which both need transporting to a foundry in order for them to be converted into Iron(). It is used by only to produce Iron Tokens() and to complete challenges, it used by two buildings: a Toolworks and the Ruined Church.
Processes
The base unit of the Foundry consumes 5 Coal() and 3 Ore() and produces 2 Iron() and 2 Coal() Tokens every Game tick. There are two extensions that can be added to the foundry. The sheet metal mill provides a more balanced process, requiring equal amounts Coal() and Iron Ore(), however, the process is considerably slower than the other process of the foundry. Meanwhile the Blast furnace provides a large increase to production output of the foundry. Overall, a Foundry with both extensions will consume 10 Coal() and 7 Ore() while producing 4.5 Iron() and 2 Coal Tokens() every Tick.
The base production process for the Foundry is shown below:
Extensions
Image | Extension | Consumes | Produces | No. of Ticks to Complete | Building Tile Size |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
2 Coal() & 2 Iron Ore() | 1 Iron() | 2 Ticks | 1x1 | ||
4 Coal() & 3 Iron Ore() | 2 Iron() | 1 Tick | 1x1 |
