Overview

The Matter Fabricator is an industrial building of the The Beyond that drives production: it turns raw materials and effort into the goods, materials, and wealth that the rest of the city is built on.

As a Industrial structure, the Matter Fabricator belongs to the industrial side of the city. Introduced in The Beyond, the era of arcologies and the orbital dawn.

Gameplay

Build cost. Raising the Matter Fabricator costs 3 Gold and 40 Energy. Plan the spend against your current stockpiles before you commit the plot.

Footprint. It occupies a 2x2 plot, so leave room on the map before you place it.

Height. The Matter Fabricator can rise to 3 floors, so its value is not only the footprint on the street but the vertical capacity you can stack above it.

Output. Once built it produces 40 Stone and 200 Gold each turn, feeding Gold and Stone into your economy.

Inputs. Each turn it consumes 6 Wood (Wood), so keep a supplier in range or its production stalls when the input runs dry.

Upkeep. It draws 20 Energy in upkeep every turn whether or not it is producing, so weigh the running cost against the benefit.
