Factories

A good way to think about how factories work in the Mainframe:

You start with a Blueprint -> Requirements -> Gather & Process -> Build

Ask yourself, "What do I need to make this Blueprint?", then design a factory run by NikNaks to build it!

In NikNak, you can create factories that are run by NikNaks to execute Blueprints.

The way to think about designing your factories are:

  1. Creating processed goods out of raw materials
  2. Moving goods and materials around space

Factories gather, process, and deliver materials to the builder, which is driven by a blueprint.

The blueprint what materials and what quantity must be presented.

Then a Builder NikNak takes the resources and builds the schematic in the blueprint!

A well designed factory should be autonomous!


How Factories affect your NikNaks

Working at factories wears NikNaks out - they get tired.

For every NikNak that works at your factory, you should make sure that they have a Bed and a house for sleeping at night!

NikNaks need to sleep at night to recharge...
