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

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

-* The small spot above the constructor's [[Indicator Light]] is a valid location for a conveyor pole to be built on. You have to build the conveyor belt from some distance away from the constructor, then aim the ending pole above the indicator light for the belt to be built on it.
