- Weighted Point is the weighted consumption rate which is calculated by:
(resource consumption rate / maximum extraction rate) * 10,000. The lower the better. - Energy per item can be used to measure how much power is consumed for the entire production chain. The lower the better.
- Space refers to building space, excluding belts and pipes. The lower the better.
- Among multiple ways to produce each of the ingredient, the recipe with the lowest WP is chosen. The exception is mentioned below:
Usage[]
Research[]
Rotor is used in the Alien Organisms Research chain and Mycelia Research chain in the 
MAM for additional unlocks.Crafting[]

Tips[]
- 54 Rotors are used in Drop Pods.
- The Steel Rotor alternate recipe calls for the same ingredients as the default Stator recipe, which can greatly simplify a Motor production line.
