Component Mine

The Component Mine is a world structure that produces Components when fueled.

Refueling
A mine can be refueled by hand (by equipping a fuel can, then holding ) or by using a Fuel Tanker, it is much quicker to use a fuel tanker. Whilst fueled, it dispenses Components into the inventory at a constant cycle. Fuel type does not change the speed of a cycle, only the amount produced. A mine can holds up to 1,000 liters (or 10 cans) of each type of Fuel.

Mining function
A component mine is capable of storing 1000 units of each type of fuel, each fuel can stores 100 units of fuel meaning a maximum of both 10 Diesel and Petrol cans are able to be stored in a component mine. For every cycle 1 unit of fuel is used so 1 fuel can will run for 100 cycles and will run for 400 seconds.

Components mines are the only source of components during the beginning of the war and thus producing Refined Materials available at the beginning before Sledge Hammers have been unlocked.


 * When Diesel is used, 2 components are made every 4 seconds and is considered to be 'Low Efficiency'.
 * When Petrol is used, 6 components are produced every 4 seconds and is considered 'High Efficiency'.

Each cycle outputs either 2 or 6 components dependent on which type of fuel is being used. Each cycle takes 4 seconds.

It consumes an entire can of a fuel type in 400 seconds or 6 minutes 40 seconds.

Tips

 * Check a mine's inventory and fuel status from the map by hovering your mouse pointer over the mine's icon.
 * The Component Mine creates Components and is the only way to create Flatbed Trucks during the early stages of a war until the Sledge Hammer is unlocked.
