Processes
The base version of the Sand Quarry generates 2 units of Sand per every two Game ticks. There are 2 extensions that can be built on adjacent tiles to the base building that improve the Sand production.
Some of the buildings can be connected to the electrical network from Era 5 onward, which will increase their production. The amount of electrification production bonus (if applicable) is shown in the brackets at each extension.
