Overclocking
Main article: Clock speed
The Manufacturer can be overclocked using Power Shards. Overclocking increases the input/output speed of the Manufacturer at the cost of exponentially increased power demand.
| Clock speed | 25% | 50% | 75% | 100% | 150% | 200% | 250% |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Consumption (MW) | 8.8 | 22 | 37.6 | 55 | 94 | 137.5 | 184.68 |
Achievements
Trivia
- The Manufacturer appears to be constructing a Supercomputer, regardless of the actual recipe it is processing. It is, therefore, the only building where an actual in-game item appears to be constructed (both the Constructor and Assembler appear to construct non-existent parts seemingly out of iron).
- Unlike the Constructor and Assembler, the Manufacturer's crafting animation always plays at the same speed, rather than going faster or slower to keep pace with actual production.
- If a Manufacturer is repainted, the Supercomputers it appears to be manufacturing will share its new color scheme.
- Despite the new model being about 13 meters tall, its construction hitbox is only eight meters tall.
- The Manufacturer is the only production machine which has the inputs on the front. All other machines have the input on the back.
- In Patch 0.2.1.19, when the Manufacturer's model got updated, the back and front ends were swapped. This resulted in all existing Manufacturers in an updated save being reversed.

History
- Patch 1.0.0.4: Fixed sounds for the Oil Refinery, Assembler, Converter and Manufacturer sometimes stacking and playing multiple times
- Patch 1.0:
- Changed Motor cost from 5 to 10
- Changed 10 Heavy Modular Frame cost to 20 Modular Frame
- Patch 0.3: Updated sounds and build cost
- Patch 0.2.1.19: Model,
soundsand animations updated, its hitbox however remained the same despite the new model being taller - Patch 0.1.11:
- Changed build cost from 2 Heavy Modular Frame, 2 Motor, and 3 Computer to 5 Heavy Modular Frame, 5 Motor, and 5 Computer
- Changed length and width from 20 x 22 m to 18 x 19 m
Early game development
Prior to Closed Alpha, not much is know about the development of the manufacturer but there was a building called Complex Constructor that functioned like a manufacturer.
