Schrabidium Transmutation Device (LEGACY)

A schrabidium transmutation device.

The schrabidium transmutation device was a machine that created schraranium ingots from uranium ingots.

It required 5 MHE of power per ingot produced.

Operation

To synthesize schraranium, the device needed to have 5 MHE stored, have a redcoil capacitor in the top slot, and have at least one natural/unenriched uranium ingot on the left of the arrow. What could be described as a charge-up sound would then be heard.

After several seconds, thunder would be heard coming from the device, and the uranium would have transmuted into a schraranium ingot on the output slot. This schraranium ingot could then be processed to extract schrabidium nuggets and have its uranium recycled.

Crafting

The Device

The schrabidium transmutation device was made in the assembly machine with the following materials:

Note that at least one schrabidium nugget was needed to produce the required magnetized tungsten.

Capacitor

A redcoil capacitor was made with the following recipe:

The capacitor was also able to be upgraded as such:

Notes

  • It took a while to charge up, 5 MHE was quite a lot for early-game measurements.
  • Power could be supplied either externally or internally through the battery slot.
  • It took the full 5 MHE to transmute one ingot.
  • Every time an ingot was transmuted, the redcoil capacitor's durability went down. It could be used 10 times before having to be recharged.
    • Recharging required the player to right-click a block to negate the built-up positive charge. It was recommended to do it around decently strong blocks like concrete or asphalt as it created a small explosion.
    • The capacitor could also be upgraded in the assembly machine with euphemium in order to have it negate the positive charge without any need of taking it out, or in layman's terms: giving it infinite durability.

Trivia

  • This was an old machine, back when nuclear reactors could barely produce in the KHE/tick. Now they can easily get up to the MHE/tick, making schrabidium production via this method much easier. Schraranium was added to balance it.
