Production
| Recipe | Inputs → output | Cycle |
|---|---|---|
| Flour | 4 Wheat → 2 Flour | ≈ 1 h |
| Millstones of the forebears blueprint | 3 Wheat → 2 Flour | ≈ 1 h |
The cycle is at skill 5; skill, tool, module, building level and mood make it faster. The default target is 20: the worker rests when there is that much of the good in storage or more.
Recipes marked “blueprint” are unlocked by blueprints from ruins and expeditions.
Chains: how to get “Flour”.
Upgrade
In the building window — ⬆: II — “New millstones”, III — “Mill drive” (+25% speed per level). The price is one and a half times the building cost, for level III — three times plus shard dust.
An upgraded building is visible from afar. II — a stone base, carved window frames and a weathervane. III — a tiled roof with an attic, a lantern by the door and a sign. Inside is richer too: from level II — a runner from the door and curtains, from III — painted walls and a picture.
IV — “Electric drive” (chapter 5): only when the building has power (electricity) and the colony has an architect. The price is three times the building cost, 10 copper and an arcane core. Outside — a copper gutter and ridge, and lamps instead of candles in the windows.
