H2O Water is a fluid resource essential for power generation and some late-game products. It can also be used to improve the conversion rate of various ores to ingots in Refineries, once their respective alternate recipe is unlocked.

It is the first fluid the pioneer has access to, being obtained using Water Extractors built on water bodies. Extraction from Resource Wells can be unlocked in Tier 8.

Obtaining[]

Resource acquisition[]

Water is extracted from water bodies using Water Extractors. Water bodies aren't considered to be resource nodes, therefore they don't have a purity and it's not possible to scan for them with the Resource Scanner.

Water can also be extracted from Resource Wells using Resource Well Extractors which spread over 8 clusters. The default extraction rates are as follows:

Node purity	m3/min at 100%	m3/min at 250%
Impure	30	75
Normal	60	150
Pure	120	300

This means the following amount of Water is available by extracting from Resource Wells:

Nodepurity	Numberof nodes	Mining rate	Mining rateat 250 %
Impure	7	210	525
Normal	12	720	1,800
Pure	36	4,320	10,800
Total	55	5,250	13,125

The maximum extraction rate of Water is virtually infinite as they can be extracted from large water bodies such as sea or ponds.

Extraction energy[]

It takes exactly 10 MJ to extract 1 m3 of water, assuming it is extracted from water bodies and not from Resource Wells (as the latter method is not power-efficient). Further reading: Extraction energy

Usage[]

Power[]

Water is required for Coal Generators and Nuclear Power Plants, alongside their respective physical requirements, to produce power.

• At 100% clock speed, Coal Generators consume water at a rate of 45 m3/min, regardless of the type of fuel provided.
• At 100% clock speed, Nuclear Power Plants consume water at a rate of 240 m3/min.

Tips[]

• Diluting Heavy Oil Residue with Water is a good way to boost petrochemical production.
• Sinking excess water with Wet Concrete is a simple way to prevent fluids backing up

Gallery[]

• Build Water Extractors on the blue areas of the map to extract Water. Pale blue refers the shallow water which cannot be used.

  • Water is now more light bluish in various buildings' UI
• Patch 0.3 Introduced
