Factory

From HBM's Nuclear Tech Wiki
Factory
A factory in a desert super flat

The Factory is a self-explanatory structure that's seen better days. You can enter through the brick archways at the front or use the back door. Inside, it serves as a simple base template and offers some useful starter loot, machines, and resources.

Where to find

Blocks

The factory also includes several resource and decorative blocks that can be collected or recycled:

Most of the deco blocks can be recycled in an anvil for additional materials.

Refurbishing

The factory has definitely seen better days, but it's still a surprisingly comfortable place to settle in. When lit up, it can serve as a solid early-game starter base.

  • Provides a decent shelter right away.
  • Contains plenty of Deco blocks that otherwise require time to craft.
  • Offers a lot of room for expansion.
  • Includes valuable early-game loot, including bullets, ingots, plates, and guns.
