Golden Feather

**Rank II:** | Turns 2 targets into turkeys

**Golden Feather** is one of the Relics available in Gauntlet.

Note that while the Golden Feather does turn random enemies into turkeys it does NOT work on special enemies and bosses. For example, at its maximum rank this relic will turn two enemies into turkeys, but if the only enemies on the screen are a single orc and an orc juggernaut, only the orc will be effected.

## Lore

In ancient times, this relic belonged to the ogre king Gorm the glutton, bestowed as a gift upon him by the Huldra as a token of allegiance.

The feather's macabre ability to transform people into cooked turkeys while still retaining their minds relatively intact is somewhat typical of the dark humour often seen in troll magic.

The Hollow Chapters

**Description:** | It is said that each time one reads from the Hollow Chapters, a portion of one's soul is left behind, forever lost within the faded pages.

**The Hollow Chapters** is one of the Loadouts available in Gauntlet.

It substitutes the Wizard's Lightning skills with three other spells from the Void School.

## Replaced Spells

Thunderburst (Lightning + Fire) is replaced with Vacuum.

-Vacuum takes all of the mobile enemies (ones that aren't spawning towers) in a set area near the Wizard and brings them all into a small area in front of the Wizard. However, the larger enemies on the edge of the radius tend to overshoot, sending them away past the vacuum. The vacuum does no damage at all.

Chain Lightning (Lightning + Ice) is replaced with Dark Torrent.

-Dark Torrent is a flamethrower-like ability which shoots red and black fire in a cone with an extremely high turn rate and insanely low cast speed that slows any enemies in its cone-like spread. Visually, the cone is about 110-120 degrees. It also has an incredibly low rate of damage.

Static Sphere (Lightning + Lightning) is replaced with Invisibility.

-Invisibility instantly de-aggroes all enemies from the Wizard as well as providing the wizard with temporary invisibility. This, however, does not provide the Wizard with any immunity or invulnerability except to Death Incarnate (as does any other form of invisibility).
Heart of Vlad

**Rank II:** | Reduce damage taken by 50% while relic is active

**Heart of Vlad** is one of the unused Relics from Gauntlet.

## Lore

It is said that the heart of a vampire can empower anyone who wields it, but such a power comes at a cost. Luckily that cost is not paid by the heart's owner but rather anyone close by.
Chaos Amulet

**Rank II:** | Increased Radius of Crystal Explosion

**Chaos Amulet** is one of the Relics available in Gauntlet.

## Lore

Drawing on the chaotic energies of the Aether, this amulet creates an unstable crystalline formation, exuding strange magic, luring monsters to attack it.

Many artifacts such as this one can be found within the shadowy covens of the Night Witches.

Deathpunch

**Description:** | A morbid weapon of an unknown origin. There is an inscription on the handle, barely readable: For Emilia, my northern star.

**Deathpunch** is one of the Loadouts available in Gauntlet.

* Note: the name of this item and the 'northern star' in its description are a reference to *Fist of the North Star*, a series of Japanese manga about a wandering hero with deadly punches.

*This **disambiguation** page lists articles associated with the same title. If an internal link referred you here, you may wish to change the link to point directly to the intended article.*

There are currently three types of extractors in *Satisfactory*. They may refer to:

 Water Extractor

We need to go Deeper

**We need to go Deeper** is one of the Masteries in the game Gauntlet.

* Bronze: Survive until Floor 10 in Endless Mode (2,000 gold)
* Silver: Survive until Floor 25 in Endless Mode (4,000 gold)
* Gold: Survive until Floor 50 in Endless Mode (8,000 gold)

## Notes

* Unlike the description suggests, a hero is not required to play through floor 1 to the given floor *sequentially*, but rather a hero must complete any singular floor that is either *greater than or equal* to the given floor. For example, to unlock this mastery with the Warrior, you may portal to floor 55 (assuming those portals have been unlocked with one other character) and complete that floor alone.
Drop-pod

## Ingredients

**1×**  HUB Parts

The **drop-pod** is what pioneers land on planets in. After landing successfully, the pioneer must dismantle the drop-pod and use the obtained  HUB Parts to build the HUB, as instructed in Onboarding. Once dismantled, it cannot be rebuilt. A waypoint on the compass shows where it is, in case the pioneer loses track of it.

The landing location is randomly selected from a set of pre-determined locations in the chosen starting location. While it is possible to walk to any other location in the game, the starting location is where pioneers respawn if the HUB is not constructed.

If Onboarding is skipped, the planetfall sequence is skipped as well. Thus, the drop-pod does not appear in the world at all. HUB Parts will be automatically added to the inventory.

In multiplayer, the planetfall sequence only plays for the host player. Other players joining will simply spawn in the HUB, rather than having their own planetfall sequence. Since dedicated servers don't have a host player, noone will see the planetfall sequence, and HUB Parts will be given to the first player who joins.

## Trivia

* The planetfall sequence and Somersloop/Mercer Sphere messages are voiced by ADA before it is introduced. However, neither have subtitles.
	+ Coffee Stain's localization manager stated the sequence is going be redone, and the final version is going have subtitles.

## Gallery

* The inside of the drop-pod as it appears during planetfall
* Safety sheet seen inside the drop-pod

## History

* Patch 0.5.0.8: Fixed build gun looking weird during the planetfall sequence
* Patch 0.3: The planetfall sequence can now be skipped alongside Onboarding when starting a new game
* Patch Closed Alpha 4: Now yields  HUB Parts instead of the following resources, which would also be used to build the HUB:
	+ 5  Heavy Modular Frames
	+ 1  Radio Control Unit
	+ 1  Quantum Computer
	+ 5  Reinforced Steel Plates

Realms

*This article is about the plot device known as "The Gauntlet" and its locations within. For the game, see Gauntlet.*

**The Gauntlet** is a perilous underground interdimensional labyrinth and is home to the legendary broadsword, Sword of Tyrfing, which has been broken into three shards prior to the events of the game. The Gauntlet pulls together locations from across time and space, otherwise known as realms, to guard each of these shards.

Each realm consists of 7 main story levels as well as 3 optional side levels. Upon entering The Gauntlet the player will immediately enter The Crypts, followed by The Caverns, and finally The Temple. Levels are unlocked sequentially, with the optional side levels branching off from the main story path. To progress through each realm you must complete 3 puzzle levels, 2 run levels, and an arena level, before facing a final guardian of the realm. Defeating the guardian will earn a fragment of Tyrfing and unlock the first level of the next realm to be visited. In short, a total of 18 levels and 3 boss battles must be overcome to beat the game, with 9 more optional side levels that can be unlocked as well.

Beating a main story level unlocks the next one down the tree. The main story is indicated by a gold trail between the levels, while the branching side paths have a silver trail between them. The boss levels are indicated by a demonic skull icon, the randomly generated run levels with a square, the arena levels with a sword and shield, and the puzzle levels with a circle. Each level's icon is encrusted with a gem which cracks when the level is beaten.

Mask of the Wyrm Slayer

**Description:** | Once you have gone through the ordeal of slaying a Wyrm, you would also think it made perfect sense to fashion a mask out of its head.

Khamun The Mummy King

Attack
 Rubble

**Khamun The Mummy King** (also known as "The Sun King") is the boss of Crypts of the Sun King.

He can first be seen from the penultimate room in The Palace of Khamun where he makes a cameo appearance on the floor below. The battle with him, however, happens in The Throne Room.

To defeat him, players must stand on one of the two panels located on either side of the room until the two center plates fully rotate into place and summon his heart to the center of the room. At this point, Khamun will be immobilized and the heart can be attacked for a limited amount of time. This process repeats until Khamun's health is fully depleted.

## Abilities

Khamun has the ability to raise two Summoning Stones from the ground on either side of the room. If players take too long to destroy them, new ones will be raised to take their place, effectively refreshing their health. Periodically, he may also punch the ground to cause rubble to fall from the ceiling. When he is not using either of these abilities, he will roam the floor, targeting players much like Death Incarnate; if any player gets too close to him, he will stomp them resulting in their immediate death.

## Notes

* The Undeath of Khamun is a Mastery that offers a reward for killing Khamun The Mummy King.

Cave

A **cave** is any area in the Satisfactory world that is located underground. Numerous caves are spread across the map, with varying widely in size and scope. Some caves may act as shortcuts between areas, stretching under mountains, whereas others may only have a single entrance and hide a secret or reward, sometimes even acting as an obstacle gauntlet for the player to surmount.

Cave entrances often blend in with the landscape and can be hard to spot. Sometimes, cave entrances can be obscured by waterfalls, hanging vines that must be removed by the player, or breakable rocks that must be blasted away with explosives.

## Environment

Cave interiors usually consist mainly of bare rock with scattered pebbles. Depending on the biome, plant roots may protrude through the ceiling. Almost all caves are filled with stalactites and stalagmites, mainly as a decorative element. Mycelial growths (mushrooms) are also common, making caves a good location to scavenge their resources. Some caves feature a blue, bio-luminescent grass-like plant covering on their ground surface, and some larger caves include large, glowing blue mushrooms, which serve as a player light source.

Some caves function as secret item locations, often blocked by a gauntlet of obstacles for the player. These commonly include (detonatable) large boulders, Stingers, or Poison Gas, but the player will frequently be rewarded with a Power Slug or an alien artifact (Somersloop/Mercer Sphere) for overcoming these.

## List of caves

There are 52 caves mapped in the Online Interactive Map. Many more caves are in the game but yet to be mapped.

Minor caves/ravines
 Blue Slug Cave
 Somersloop Tunnel
 Mercer Sphere Cave
 Fungus Under-cliff
 Waterfall Cave

Major caves
 Desert cave

### Stacked Caves

Different caves can stack on each other on different elevations.

* Uranium Cave and the Purple Power Slug cave at the Grass Fields
* Two Stinger caves at the Blue Crater
* Lizard Doggo cave and the Purple Power Slug cave near East to the Islands
* A Blue Power Slug cave above the cavern located below the spire of Rocky Desert
* Several caves located within the mesa of the Spire Coast, with hard to spot entrances.

Dedicated servers/Automatic updates

* Reason: Could be incorporated into § How do I update the Dedicated Server?
* Please discuss this on the Discussion page.

It has been ***suggested*** that this article or section be **merged with Dedicated servers.**

* Reason: Could be incorporated into § How do I update the Dedicated Server?
* Please discuss this on the Discussion page.

This page describes how to **automate dedicated server updates**.

## Automating Updates

### Windows

#### NSSM

You can use the Non-Sucking Service Manager to automate the update process

##### Batch file

First, you need to make a batch file to update FactoryServer.exe. Open a text editor of your choice, and paste the below code:

For Early Access:

```
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamcmd.exe" +force_install_dir "C:\GameServers\SatisfactoryServer" +login anonymous +app_update 1690800 -beta public validate +quit
"C:\GameServers\nssm.exe" start SatisfactoryServerService

```
For Experimental:

```
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamcmd.exe" +force_install_dir "C:\GameServers\SatisfactoryServer" +login anonymous +app_update 1690800 -beta experimental validate +quit
"C:\GameServers\nssm.exe" start SatisfactoryServerService

```
Where the first path is to SteamCMD, the second path is to the folder with FactoryServer.exe, and the third path is to the folder with nssm.exe.

Now press Ctrl+S, and save the file to the directory with FactoryServer.exe (in our case, C:\GameServers\SatisfactoryServer) as "update.bat"

##### Automating

Once you've downloaded and installed NSSM, navigate to the directory containing nssm.exe and run the below command:

```
nssm.exe install SatisfactoryServerUpdate

```

This will pull up a GUI for configuration. Set the "**Path**" to the location of update.bat. Then, go to "**Details**", change "**Startup Type**" to "**Automatic**", and then click "install". Next, run this command:

```
nssm.exe edit SatisfactoryServerService

```

Now, Go to "**Details**" and change "**Startup Type**" to "**Manual**". When finished, click "Edit Service".

Finally, run this command:

```
nssm.exe start SatisfactoryServerUpdate

```

This will start the update process, and then start the server once finished.

Other useful `nssm` commands:

```
nssm.exe status SatisfactoryServerUpdate # Checks the status of the Service

```
The Spawn of Kerthuul

**Description:** | A mantle crafted from the slain bodies of nightmarish creatures. Historical writing suggest these creatures to be the underlings of the greater demon, Kerthuul.

**The Spawn of Kerthuul** is one of the Loadouts available in Gauntlet.

* Promotional art for this item listed the name as **Kerthull**, but when the game released it had been renamed **Kerthuul**.
* Gauntlet's original planned release date was September 3rd, 2014. When it was delayed for fine tuning until the 23rd, the developers announced they would offer this item to all players who had pre-ordered the game as a reward for their patience.
* Currently, this item is given to players who buy Gauntlet from EB Games in Australia.
Bucket of the Dragon Rider

**Description:** | When the armies of Rendar marched on the dark city of Pren, they were convinced that their enemy was hiding something. After close investigation their search proved fruitless and all they got was this helmet.

**Bucket of the Dragon Rider** is one of the Loadouts available in Gauntlet.
Alpha Hog

## Loot

3×  Hog Remains

The **Alpha Hog** is the larger version of Fluffy-tailed Hog that is also considerably more dangerous, dealing up to 3x the damage. Other than its larger body size, it can be distinguished by the bright edges on the back of its carapace, and its tusks (which regular hogs lack). It also emits a shockwave-like particle effect when it prepares to attack.

The Alpha Hog usually patrols around Crash Sites, Power Slugs or artifacts.

## Behaviour

Aggressive melee creature. It is hostile towards pioneers and will charge at them. It will, however, ignore tractors (even with a player in them).
If the Hog gets attacked while the player is standing on a platform out of reach of the Hog, it will flee. It has two attack patterns: A charge attack which deals 20 damage each hit, and a bite attack that deals 30 damage. Be warned, its charge attack is more difficult to dodge than that of a normal Hog. It is advised to build a temporary Ladder and shoot it with a  Rifle. If it tries to escape, you can trap it with foundations and walls.

## Combat

The strategy applicable for normal hogs is not applicable for the Alpha Hog. The easiest way to kill an Alpha Hog with a melee weapon is:

* Before approaching it, build a  Stackable Conveyor Pole/ Ladder near it.
* Rush to the ladder and climb up. It will come and chase you as you enter its vicinity.
* As it stops nearby, build several  Conveyor Splitters to trap it. Ensure there is no gap left; you can safely overlap the splitters when you make the trap.
	+ This makes use of the fact that splitters don't encroach on each other.
* Jump onto one of the Splitters using either the ladder or Crouch-jump, then use the  Xeno-Zapper or  Xeno-Basher to kill it.

All ranged weapons are also effective, even the  Rebar Gun, which becomes available early on. Simply stand on a Foundation or terrain which the hog cannot reach.

## Gallery

* The old model of the Alpha Hog.
* Left: **Alpha Hog** Model as seen in Patch 0.2.1.1
* Using several Splitters to trap the Alpha Hog.

## History

* Patch 0.6.0.0: The Creature AI system, navigation, and spawning have been overhauled
	+ Creatures now have separate visual and audio perception (and they won’t hear you crouch)
	+ Creatures can now panic and run when certain conditions are met
	+ Added unique loot for all aggressive wildlife (see Alien Remains - Hog Remains)
	+ Added optional HUD indicators for aggressive wildlife (can be turned on in the options menu)
	+ Both Hogs no longer circle around the player
	+ Hogs now have a rear up animation before their standard charge
* Unknown: Changed appearance and sounds (possibly 0.2.1.1)
* Patch 0.1.5: Made the Alpha Hog more aggressive
* Patch 0.1:
	+ Small tweaks to roar reach
	+ Can no longer be staggered while charging
ADA

**ADA** (Artificial Directory and Assistant) is an artificial intelligence built into HudOS, which serves as a narrator in the game. It tells pioneers what essential tasks need to be completed, how to perform certain tasks, and informs them about new research, milestone unlocks or important events.

With the exception of the planetfall sequence, artifact messages and some easter eggs, ADA is fully subtitled. Once a message is received from ADA, it can be freely viewed and replayed in the Codex.

## Trivia

* When a  FICSIT Coupon is sunk into the AWESOME Sink, the Cyber Wagon is unlocked. ADA will then tell the pioneer that the Cyber Wagon is its "first solo project".
* The speech engine used by ADA is the Female gendered "en-US-Wavenet-C" provided by Google Cloud Text-to-Speech with voice effects applied to it, confirmed by Jace and Snutt

Tempest Locket

**Rank II:** | Increased Whirlwind Duration

**Tempest Locket** is one of the Relics available in Gauntlet.

## Lore

These magical lockets were favoured by the Storm Druids of Lach'lan, who would summon a whirlwind that they could then manipulate through force of will.

Unfortunately, anyone else using this artifact has no way of controlling the summoned whirlwind, making it a fickle instrument.
Aluminum Scrap

*Aluminum Scrap is pure aluminum refined from Alumina. Can be smelted down to Aluminum Ingots for industrial usage.*

### Sink value

27

**Aluminum Scrap** is an intermediate item created from Alumina Solution. It is smelted into Aluminum Ingots for further processing.

## Obtaining

### Alternate recipes analysis

The following shows different ways to produce 1 Aluminum Scrap / second, or 60 / min:

* Note that for Electrode - Aluminum Scrap, combination with Sloppy Alumina Solution results in **equal** Bauxite efficiency compared to Instant Scrap.
* Weighted Point is the weighted consumption rate which is calculated by: `(resource consumption rate / maximum extraction rate) * 10,000`. The lower the better.
* Energy per item can be used to measure how much power is consumed for the entire production chain. The lower the better.
* Space refers to building space, excluding belts and pipes. The lower the better.
* Among multiple ways to produce each of the ingredient, the recipe with the lowest WP is chosen. See also:
	+ Alumina Solution#Alternate recipes analysis
* Water byproduct can be recycled back to the previous step, reducing the need of 'fresh' water from Water Extractor.
* Silica byproduct can be used to supplement 1/3 of the Silica usage for the next production step. Thus, resources are not wasted and some of the WP, Energy and space can be recovered.

This section serves as a summary for alternative recipes and when they could be used. It can be a bit subjective, so don't take it too serious.

* Want to get the most out of your Alumina Solution? *Electrode-Aluminum Scrap* is your friend then. At the cost of Crude Oil in the form of Petroleum Coke, you can get up to 11.111% more Aluminum Scrap compared to the standard recipe. Just keep in mind that this recipe is a bit slower.
 *- "*I don't know who Rode is and I don't want to Elect him either!"
* If you like simple production lines, *Instant Scrap* can help you with that. While it does need Sulfuric Acid made from valuable Sulfur, it produces Scrap just as efficiently as *other alternative recipe combinations.* - "*So good I'll Instant Crap my pants!"*

Beryl Nut

*Can be eaten to restore half a health segment.*

A **Beryl Nut** (a.k.a. 'Nut'), is a consumable item that heals 5 HP. It can be equipped in the hand slot and is consumed with . It can be found throughout the World and is the most common out of all edibles. It can be searched with the Object Scanner after researching it in the MAM, and can be used to craft the Medicinal Inhaler.

## Obtaining

Beryl Nuts can be collected from Beryl Nut Bushes found in the world by approaching them and pressing the interact key (default `E`).

Aluminum Casing

*A versatile container cast from Aluminum Ingots.*

### Blueprint path

`/Game/FactoryGame/Resource/Parts/AluminumCasing/Desc_AluminumCasing.Desc_AluminumCasing_C`

## Item

### Sink value

393

**Aluminum Casing** is a late-game component used to craft numerous late-game parts.

## Obtaining

### Alternate recipes analysis

The following shows different ways to produce 1 Aluminum Casing / second, or 60 /min:

* Weighted Point is the weighted consumption rate which is calculated by: `(resource consumption rate / maximum extraction rate) * 10,000`. The lower the better.
* Energy per item can be used to measure how much power is consumed for the entire production chain. The lower the better.

Chainsaw

*Used to clear an area of flora that is too difficult to remove by hand.*

The **Chainsaw** is a tool used to cut down flora in a target area by consuming  Solid Biofuel. It allows the pioneer to harvest things that can't be harvested by hand, such as trees, some shrubs, and small rocks, or to clear an area of these things.

## Usage

### Equipment

With the Chainsaw equipped, approach some flora (valid flora will be highlighted with a white outline) and Use  to cut it. After the animation finishes, all flora within a 5-meter radius is cut (centered on the targeted object).. Some nearby small rocks will also be destroyed and yield Limestone or Silica, although the rocks can't be targeted directly. All items produced by the destroyed flora, including removed stones, will be transferred into the player's inventory. Several types of trees cannot be cut, usually large trees.

While the AoE can not be directly turned off, if there isn't enough space in the player's inventory, only the targeted (highlighted) flora is cut and no items are obtained. This is a known bug and not an intentional feature.

### Damage

The Chainsaw cannot be used as a weapon; it does no damage to any creature.

### Crafting

**Chainsaw** isn't used to craft anything.
### AWESOME Sink

****Chainsaw**** can be sunk into the  AWESOME Sink to yield **2 760 points**.
### Fuel consumption

The Chainsaw currently uses Solid Biofuel as fuel. It consumes 75 MW and Solid Biofuel has 450 MJ of energy, therefore one Solid Biofuel is consumed every six seconds.

The chainsaw does not support multiple fuel types due to UI limitations; there isn't currently a way for the player to specify what fuel it should consume.

## Gallery

* Pioneers with chainsaws as seen in the E3 trailer.
* Chainsaw concept art.

## Trivia

* Despite being powered by a solid form of biomass, the chainsaw still sounds like it is powered by liquid fuel.
* Snutt has prototyped different modes for the Chainsaw.
* Even if Chainsaw is equipped, Pioneer can still opt to pick up small foliages manually. However, as foliage actual pickup hitbox is reduced to its base area while a Chainsaw is held, Holster `H` to allow foliages to be picked up more easily.

## History

* Patch 0.3.4.0: Sound tweaked, reduced sound volume.
* Patch 0.3: Now uses Solid Biofuel instead of Biofuel (which has now become Packaged Liquid Biofuel).
* Unknown patch before Alpha Test Weekend: Chainsaw AoE was added. Previously it only destroyed one object.

Cable

*Used for crafting.
Primarily used to build power lines.*

**Cables** are made from Wires. They are used for building Power Lines, several parts, and many other buildings.

## Obtaining

### Alternate recipes analysis

The following shows different ways to produce 1 Cable / second, or 60 / min:

* Weighted Point is the weighted consumption rate which is calculated by: `(resource consumption rate / maximum extraction rate) * 10,000`. The lower the better.
* Energy per item can be used to measure how much power is consumed for the entire production chain. The lower the better.
* Space refers to building space, excluding belts and pipes. The lower the better.
* Among multiple ways to produce each of the ingredient, the recipe with the lowest WP is chosen. See also:
	+ Wire#Alternate recipes analysis
	+ Rubber#Alternate recipes analysis
	+ Quickwire#Alternate recipes analysis

This section serves as a recap for alternate recipe information and to provide some possible usage cases. It can be rather subjective, so don't take it at face value.

* If you need to increase your Cable production and have some Crude Oil available, *Coated Cable* can be used to build quite a compact production line*.* A single *Coated Cable* Refinery can do the work of about 3.6 Cable Constructors. Be sure that you know how to deal with Refineries and oil byproducts if you want to use this recipe.
 - *"I won't sugar-coat it, it's a c(ap)able recipe."*

* If you have Crude Oil available, but no Heavy Oil Residue to spare because its needed elsewhere, then *Insulated Cable* can be used to build a decently compact and energy-efficient production line. A single *Insulated Cable* Assembler produces as much almost 4.5 Cable Constructors. Be sure you can afford to use Rubber here. (Residual Rubber might be a good choice).
 - "*Not to be confused with Insolent Cable, that stuff is naughty."*

* No Wire available? No problem, *Quickwire Cable* can be used to produce Cable instead. It still needs to be supplied with Rubber from your oil production, though not as much as the other recipes.
 - *"Quickwire Cable can't create Cable quickly. Alliterations are awesome!"*

## Usage

### Research

****Cable**** is used in the **Caterium Research chain, Sulfur Research chain, Power Slugs Research chain and Mycelia Research chain** in the  MAM for additional unlocks.

### AWESOME Sink

****Cable**** can be sunk into the  AWESOME Sink to yield **24 points**.
## Gallery

* Schematic showing two Wire Constructors that can be paired with one **Cable** Constructor.

## History

* Patch 0.4.1.0: Now stack to 200
* Patch 0.3.2.2: Increased the output of Quickwire Cable
* Patch 0.3.2.0: Tweaked cable mesh.
* Patch 0.3: Doubled crafting speed.
* Patch 0.1.5: Added a new Cable mesh and texture
Encased Industrial Beam

*Encased Industrial Beams utilize the compressive strength of concrete and tensile strength of steel simultaneously.
Mostly used as a stable basis for constructing buildings.*

632

**Encased Industrial Beam** is a mid-game component created by embedding Steel in Concrete. It is used for Conveyor Belts Mk.4 (and Lifts), buildings, Heavy Modular Frames, Uranium Fuel Rods and some alternate recipes.

## Obtaining

### Alternate recipes analysis

The following shows different ways to produce 1 Encased Industrial Beam / second, or 60 / min:

* Weighted Point is the weighted consumption rate which is calculated by: `(resource consumption rate / maximum extraction rate) * 10,000`. The lower the better.
* Energy per item can be used to measure how much power is consumed for the entire production chain. The lower the better.
* Space refers to building space, excluding belts and pipes. The lower the better.
* Among multiple ways to produce each of the ingredient, the recipe with the lowest WP is chosen. The exception is mentioned below:
	+ Steel Ingot#Alternate recipes analysis
	+ Concrete#Alternate recipes analysis - Wet Concrete

## Usage

### Research

****Encased Industrial Beam**** is used in the **Sulfur Research chain** in the  MAM for additional unlocks.

### AWESOME Sink

****Encased Industrial Beam**** can be sunk into the  AWESOME Sink to yield **632 points**.
## Trivia

* 43 Encased Industrial Beams are used in Drop Pods.

## Tips

* It is encouraged to automate this item with Alternate: Encased Industrial Pipe once available, as it consumes fewer Steel Ingots.
* Comparison between original recipes and alternate recipes for crafting 1 Encased Industrial Beam:

Using alternate recipes, there is a trade-off between resource efficiency vs. Space and Power usage.

* This requires Pure Iron Ingot, Solid Steel Ingot, Wet Concrete and Encased Industrial Pipe.

## Gallery

* The icon for Reinforced Steel Plate, before it was changed to Encased Industrial Beam.

## History

* Patch 0.1: Changed from Reinforced Steel Plate to Encased Industrial Beam, changed recipe (previously made with Screws instead of Concrete). Its previous icon is now used for the Heat Sink.
Crab Boss

The **Crab Boss** is a placeholder name given to a giant creature seen in the E3 trailer as well as briefly in the Animation Highlight,  and was named "Melk" on the side of a photoshopped carton of milk in the Update 6 initial information video.

In a Q&A video released by Coffee Stain, the creature was referred to as a "Big Angry Crab", and it has been hinted at its implementation in the future, although as of January 2023 it was currently "on ice". It has been later revealed that the reason it's not implemented yet is due to pathfinding issues.

## Speculation

* It could be some kind of boss.
* It is possible that the Flying Crab Hatchers are its eggs. This is especially reasonable speculation considering that the Crab Boss is shown throwing Flying Crabs at the pioneer in the E3 trailer.
* Though it may be the same species as the Flying Crabs, it appears to be standing on the ground rather than flying, which means it could be incapable of flight. It is also seen screaming/roaring, which hints towards a different sound than the Flying Crabs.
* One of the animations featured in a developer highlights video includes what appears to be a lone crab larva riding the back of the Crab Boss, with one arm raised as if to wave the player off to their death as they're attacked by a swarm of its siblings.
