The Shard inhibitor is a shard of archotechnology being utilized to increase the containment strength of your Holding platforms.
Acquisition[edit]
Shard inhibitors can be constructed once the Entity containment research project has been completed. Note that this research requires dark study to unlock. Each requires 15 Steel, 1 Shard and 1,000 ticks (16.67 secs) of work modified by the construction speed of the builder.
Summary[edit]

This section is a stub. You can help RimWorld Wiki by expanding it. Reason: general summary info. |
Increases containment by +20 for all holding spots and holding platforms within a 5 tile radius - the middle cell of the holding spot/platform needs to be within the radius. Works through walls, a well placed shard beacon can cover multiple holding platforms in multiple cells.
Analysis[edit]
Since a security door and stone walls are usually sufficient for containment needs, and a shard inhibitor uses a valuable shard, they are not a very big priority to build. Still, they can be used in the early game before security doors are available, or when containment is especially needed (such as against metalhorrors).
Gallery[edit]
The sterile tile radius denotes all. Note that that center tile of the holding platform must be on a sterile tile
The maximum number of affected platforms is 14
Efficient shard inhibitor and holding platform layout allowing for the maximum number of holding platforms to be covered by its area of effect.
