Technical


Advanced components are a late game crafting material used for high-tech crafting and construction, such as building the ship to escape the planet, or making charge rifles and marine armor.

Acquisition

Advanced components can be crafted at a Fabrication bench once the Advanced fabrication research project has been completed. They require Component 1 Component, Steel 20 Steel, Plasteel 10 Plasteel, Gold 3 Gold, 10,000 ticks (2.78 mins) of work, and a Crafting skill of 8.

Advanced components can also be collected by destroying crashed ship parts or by purchasing them from traders. Advanced components can only be bought from orbital traders, outlanders, and the Empire.Content added by the Royalty DLC They can also be found in ancient shrines.

Summary

Damage to an advanced component's HP does not affect their market value.

Usage

Advanced components are used in the following crafting recipes:

  • Product Ingredients Type [Expand]
  • Analysis

    Like with regular components, advanced components are often a bottleneck to a colony. It is highly recommended to keep 2 advanced components for when you can build a fabrication bench, allowing you to make both types of component yourself. You may also want to grab one to make a ground-penetrating scanners or long-range mineral scanner, as both allow you to mine for ore indefintely.

    Advanced components are used for many late game tasks, most notably the construction of the ship. A large amount of time - 10,000 ticks (2.78 mins) work per unit - will be spent creating advanced components. You may want to build multiple fabrication benches to meet the demand for late game applications. Two tool cabnets can be used to speed up bench work speed. Note that you will need both plasteel and gold to create advanced components, so plan ahead accordingly.

    Trivia

    • In code, Advanced Components are called "ComponentSpacer"

    Version history

    • Beta 19 - now requires 10 plasteel instead of 3 uranium to make and is used for a greater variety of crafting recipes instead of only building the ship.
