Dark Matter

Dark Matter
(blank description)
Unlocked at	Tier 8
Item
Stack size	50

Dark Matter was a crafting component created in the Hadron Collider. Guessing from the power requirement of the Hadron Collider, it might've been created only using power.

It probably was an early version of the  Nuclear Pasta introduced in Patch 0.4.0.0.

Heat Resistant Suit

Heat Resistant Suit
Used to avoid heat damage.
Category	Body equipment

The Heat Resistant Suit would have been used to prevent the engineer from taking any heat damage. It is unknown where it would get used, as currently there is no heat damage (unlike Radiation and its suit for example). It didn't change the engineer's appearance.

Crafting

Heat Resistant Suit can't be crafted.

Rebar Scatter Gun

The Rebar Scatter Gun was a ranged weapon that could be unlocked in Patch 0.1.5 and was removed in Patch 0.1.6. It couldn't be reloaded with  Spiked Rebar, rendering it unusable.

Its functionality has been reintroduced in Patch 0.6.0.0 with the  Shatter Rebar alternative ammo for the  Rebar Gun.

Mk.2 variants of buildings

The Assembler, Constructor, Foundry, Manufacturer and Smelter had a Mk.2 variant that would operate either 25% or 50% faster (listed in the infoboxes below).

These buildings weren't introduced because Coffee Stain felt they would need unique designs, which takes a lot of work just for them to be the same but faster, especially with overclocking available.

Assembler Mk.2

The Hadron Collider was a building used to produce Dark Matter. Due to not being implemented correctly, the recipe could not be selected and the building was never operational.

The Hadron Collider was eventually implemented in Patch 0.4.0.0, renamed as the Particle Accelerator, with different functionality.

It had unusually high power usage, which didn't fluctuate. Additionally, it reportedly wasn't animated, simply lighting up while producing.

Industrial Lighting

Industrial Lighting

5× Iron Rod

Industrial Lighting was a Power Pole-like with two power connections. Despite its name and appearance, it did not emit any light, even while powered, rendering it useless. It consumed 1 MW to "operate".

It was eventually implemented in Patch 0.4.0.0 as the Street Light.

Powered Wall

Powered Wall
When connected to a Power Grid it makes the Floor it stands on and any Floors connected to it propagate power. No More Power Poles or Power Lines on floors!

The Powered Wall was a building that allowed power to propagate through foundations underneath it, removing the need for Power Lines.

It was not implemented due to being unintuitive. The intended experience was introduced using Wall Outlets.

Quantum Encoder

The Remote Storage was a building that could be used to access items stored within the storage unit from anywhere, accessible from the inventory. It only had one input and no outputs.

It can be briefly seen in the E3 trailer.

The Mk.6 Conveyor Belt and Mk.6 Conveyor Lift would have been the highest conveyor mark.

The belt could be accessed and datamined, with its description stating a capacity of 900 parts/min. After its removal from public builds, the capacity was increased to 1200 parts/min, as confirmed by translation strings. They also confirm the existence of a matching Mk.6 lift, which never appeared in a public build.

It can be assumed the increase happened at the same time the capacity of Mk.4 and Mk.5 conveyors was increased in Patch 0.1.15.

The Mk.6 belt is showcased in the Conveyor Belt Speeds teaser alongside all other Conveyor Belt marks and has been subsequently mentioned in several dev streams.

Trivia

• One of Jace's first tasks at Coffee Stain was to prototype the Remote Storage.
  • One of Snutt's first tasks at Coffee Stain involved removing the Remote Storage.
