https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/pro ... multiplier
the correct value is `Default: 1 / level`
BTW, https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/pro ... multiplier look also wrong, it's probably something like `Default: Value of default_multiplier` but it's unclear cause 388 kW of ASM x 2.5 is not 950 kW...

Re: Beacon quality default is wrong
QualityPrototype::beacon_power_usage_multiplier defaults to 1, there is no mistake with docs.
QualityPrototype::crafting_machine_energy_usage_multiplier also defaults to 1.
QualityPrototype::crafting_machine_energy_usage_multiplier also defaults to 1.

Re: Beacon quality default is wrong
I completely forget my own `quality.crafting_machine_energy_usage_multiplier = 1 + quality.level * 0.3` but wtf 388*2.5 => 950 in factorio and more diddling that simply factoriopedia not clearly show the drain and the energy usage distinction. 375 * 2.5 + 12.5 => 950 kW, guess energy usage doesn't affect drain value.boskid wrote: Wed May 13, 2026 9:51 am QualityPrototype::beacon_power_usage_multiplier defaults to 1, there is no mistake with docs.

but for beacon that very unclear, but digging out that simply because quality mod override the default value... https://github.com/wube/factorio-data/b ... ty.lua#L13 guess that legit haha my bad
