Recycling transformer

Information

At the Recycling transformer a very complex and smelly process transforms available Scrap into resources. In the process, the transformer, literally, digests the Scrap. The part that, usually, is supposed to be waste is actually the useful resource. It may not be pretty, but it works.

Each Planet can have one Recycling transformer. Upgrading the Transformer increases its effectiveness and speed. Each level adds one more place in the queue for recycling.

Recycling is affected by the income percentage, which depends on the level of the Recycling transformer. This percentage determines how much resources will be recycled from a unit of Scrap. It is important to note that there also is a random factor of ±5%, this means that if the Recycling transformer is at level 1 (75% income) the actual percentage of resources received from recycling will be between 70% and 80%of the Scrap invested. For Example: if you start recycling 1000 units of scrap you will receive from 700 to 800 units of resources.

After the Scrap is recycled into resource, the ready process can remain in the building for not more than 48 hrs. After that the ready resource is been dropped (added) to the planet where the building is located.

Note that if your queue is full you cannot add more places until you get your ready resources.

Max level: level 10
