Mass Production
Adds upgrades for your Producer Framework Mod machines that allow them to process much greater quantities, change the resulting quality, and more! Automate compatible.
OVERVIEW
Mass Production allows you to modify your machines to handle much greater quantities than before. Any machine that uses Producer Framework Mod
can take an upgrade to multiply it’s throughput. This also has integration with Automate to fulfill all of your factory needs!
WARNING: This mod conflicts with PFMAutomate and the Automate functionality of machines with mass production upgrades will not work with both installed. However using this mod alone will duplicate the functionality of PFMAutomate.
MASS PRODUCTION UPGRADES
Recipes for the upgrades will be sent through the mail once you reach certain milestones. Once crafted, these upgrades can be installed on a suitable machine by right-clicking on the machine with the upgrade kit in hand. The machine will now have the icon of the upgrade on it and will start behaving differently once it is ready for it’s next input.
Currently only machines that take inputs are supported.
The upgrades available are:
Basic: Uses 10x the input for 10x the output without taking any more time. Unlocked once you’ve earned 100,000G total.
High Volume: Uses a whopping 50x the input for 50x the output at only 2x the regular time. Unlocked once you’ve earned 500,000G and the Basic upgrade.
Efficient: Uses 8x the input for 12x the output and takes 20% less time to process. Unlocked once you’ve earned 1,000,000G and the Basic upgrade.
Golden: Uses 10x the input for only 8.5x the output and takes 20% longer to produce, but all output will be gold quality! Unlocked once you’ve earned 2,000,000G and the High Volume upgrade.
Iridium: Uses 10x the input for 7x the output and takes 40% longer to produce, but all output will be tip-top iridium quality! Unlocked after you’ve learned the Golden upgrade and have completed the Community Center or Joja Warehouse.
