Master the art of industrial automation in Endfield. This planner helps you visualize complex production chains before committing resources in-game. Efficient factory design is crucial for late-game progression.
⚡ Power Management 101
Every machine consumes MW (Megawatts). Miners are low draw (10MW), but Assemblers (60MW) can quickly overload your grid. Always plan your AIC (Artificial Industrial Complex) with a 20% power buffer to accommodate spikes.
🏭 Maximizing Throughput
Bottlenecks are the enemy. If a Smelter produces 30 iron ingots/min but your Belt only moves 20/min, you are losing efficiency. Use this calculator to match input rates with output capacity. Ratio calculation is key: 1 Miner (30 ore/min) perfectly feeds 1 Smelter (30 ingot/min).
Pro Tips for AIC Commanders
- Manifold vs Load Balance: For Endfield, manifold (straight line) input is often more space-efficient than complex splitters.
- Delete Mode: Toggle delete mode to quickly remodel sections without clearing the whole grid.
- Save Your Work: This tool saves locally. Screenshot your best layouts to share with the community.
