Maintenance
Consumed continuously to keep the facility running. Starve it and it degrades.
SuppliedConveyor belts feed materials to automated assembly stations. Quality scanners verify each output in real-time.
StarvedThat's the plan, at least. Conveyor belts jam regularly, quality control runs on manual inspection, and reject rates are climbing.
Upgrade Chain (4 tiers)

Each tier is built by upgrading the one below it. Cost, build time and power draw climb with the tier; the recipe it runs stays the same.
