Resource Processing

Resource processing is the act of converting base resources into refined materials.

To process resources, an Architect must:

1. Own the required tool (crafted at any rarity)

2. Equip that tool

3. Use specific resource inputs (mostly including base resources + water or coal)

Tool rarity and efficiency

• Each Tool rarity tier has a range of efficiency

• This defines how many base resources are needed per 1 processed output

• Lower numbers are better, indicating higher efficiency

Example: Processing an Iron Bar with a Kiln
