The Constructor can be overclocked using Power Shards. Overclocking increases the input/output speed of the Constructor at the cost of greatly increased power demand proportional to output.

Overclocking

Main article: Clock speed

The Constructor can be overclocked using Power Shards. Overclocking increases the input/output speed of the Constructor at the cost of exponentially increased power demand.

Clock speed	25%	50%	75%	100%	150%	200%	250%
Consumption (MW)	0.64	1.6	2.73	4	6.84	10	13.43

A manifold of Constructors producing Concrete.

Trivia

The serial numbers on the model translate to "Constructor" and "I stamp" in leet speak.

History

Patch 0.3.4.6: Power Shards production times changed to work better with Constructor sounds
Patch 0.3:
- Manufacturing UIs (Constructor, Assembler, Manufacturer, etc.) now display all recipes in categories similar to the Craft Bench
- Clearance tweaks for Foundry, Constructor & Smelter
Patch 0.2.1.6: Added some measures to prevent a rare “Floor is too steep” error when building the Constructor
Patch 0.1.9: Adjusted alignments of I/O:s on Constructors
