This low-key one of the best posts in a while. That foundry!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

That foundry is next level fast. I seriously can't wait to build crazy stuff with this.

260 cogs per second :o

I read some place else that it was 480/s, but I haven't done the math myself

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I re-checked. With 1 wheel per crafting, 4.33 crafts per tick, and 60 ticks per second, I get 4.33 x 60 = 260. I may have missed something, but not sure what.

I just went back to FFF #387 and looked

Perhaps the biggest advantage is that the Foundry has a built-in 50% productivity bonus, which can be further boosted with the machine's 4 module slots.

So 4.33 * 60 * 1.5 = 480

I see! That checks out.

I read the last image caption "A legendary foundry crafting at a swift +2500% speed, completing 4.33 crafts per tick." with the assumption that all bonuses were taken into account.
