Lol. That's the first time Ive ever done that.

Anyway, I'm new to Architect and the question is about harvesting. How much resource does a single harvester actually harvest in an hour? In a day? What's the difference between medium and heavy harvesters by numbers?

Any help here is really appreciated.

To calculate the rate of ore that you pull, take the Rate (Number on the left), multiply it by the concentration, then multiply that by 60 and then by 24. That gives you what you can expect in 24 hrs.

Small's max rate is 4, and cost 30c/hr to maintain + use 25 power/hour.

Mediums max rate is 10, cost is 60/hr and 50/hr resp.

Heavy's max rate is 13, cost is 90/hr and 75/hr resp.

All power generators cost 60/hr to maintain, no power requirements.

Wind generators max at 9. Solar right now at 8, and Fusion Generators at 14.

So take a BER 10 medium on a 75% resource. that equates to 7.5 units per min, 450/hour, 10,800 per day.

Great info! That helps a lot. One last question: Do harvesters continue to harvest if you aren't online? Or does your character actually need to be in the world for them to gather?

Thanks again for the help.

Harvesters will continue to work even when you are offline. They will keep on extracting and the maintenance and power will continue to be used up.

Cool. Thanks!
