The extractor is one of the most important parts when it comes to creating factories. It is essential to constructing bases and factories, as it automates the harvesting of resources, generating one resource per second when directly attached to it. For example, if the extractor is attached to an Iron deposit and set to Iron, it will extract Iron from the deposit and place it in an attached bin or spew it out.
what do you need inorder to set it up?
to set up a functional extractor you will need following items
- output bin
- extractor (duh)
- power storage like a power cell or a battery
- power source to fill the power storage
how to set it up?
to set up and extractor you will need to follow these steps.
- connect the Extractor to resource deposit.
- configure the Extractor using hammer to resource's name (the Extractor is cap sensitive so for example "iron" wouldnt work but "Iron" would work).
- connect an output bin to the Extractor
- connect it to a power source
notes
Extractors wont work if they are'nt at least 40 studs away from eachother or if they are on a same resource deposit (with the exeptions being sand, grass and stone deposits)
