Buildings and machines

Checked 2026-11-05 · Lightyear Frontier 1.0

Find each machine role, historical unlock, and automation connection in this catalog. Water Pump supplies water, Mineral Extractor adds minerals beside a deposit, Connector Pipe links machines, and Furnace processes materials. Barn and Workshop Shed remain entries in the table; Workshop Shed and Storage Shed are different constructs.

Power cells that say none are the published none, not a guess that the building is free of Energy. 1.0 added several tier II and III machines and resource filters. Where the data file records that change, it is in the effect or the version line. Exact Energy numbers were not published, so they are not here. Wiring advice for the extractor is the pipe guide. The pump's place in a river-to-field route is the water guide.

Questions

Are empty cells zero?

No. A dash means the public pages I used did not give a value.

How do I open detailed information?

Select a linked item name for acquisition, uses, and version details. Other items remain readable in the table.

What does the source column mean?

The number of independent publishers linked for the row; multiple pages from one publisher count once.
