Hello.

I need to answer these questions for one purpose (like quest).


Task: to produce 100 iron plates per second (360k per hour).

Questions:

1. How many ovens do you need for this?
2. How much is needed for this drill and for what? (Electricity costs and manipulators can be disregarded)?
3. Is it possible to put 100 iron plates per second in boxes and what do you need to do this?

If the answer to question 3 is yes - then please provide blueprint (it is the same drawing that can be created in the game)

Thanks a lot!

Sorry, I’m a beginner, this is a task I need to solve for my studies (such a task I was given, in a playful form) - could you describe it in more detail?
I also know that this task must be completed in 3-4 hours including learning the game. So i need something like text instructions what to do...

Thanks for your answer!

It sounds like you're expecting random strangers on the internet to complete your homework for you? Doesn't that defeat the point of learning how to do these calculations yourself?

You don't need to actually play the game to figure this out. There's a sandbox mode where you have access to every item. This might help you do your experiments, and you won't get attacked by aliens while you do.

Provided you turn them off, of course.

I am going to sandbox to solve this.
Thanks to everyone!
