Recycle Old Tools and Materials for Resources

Build and Operate the Recycling Center

Construct a Recycling Center and assign a Recycling Engineer. This building breaks down worn tools, old equipment, and excess building materials into their base components, preventing waste and recovering valuable resources.

Feed Items Into Recycling

Deposit damaged tools, broken equipment, or surplus blocks into the Recycling Center's inventory. The Recycling Engineer will process these items and output raw materials—wood, stone, metal ingots, or crafting components—that can be reused or sold.

Manage Recycling Output

Monitor the Recycling Center's output storage to prevent overflow. Route recovered materials to your warehouse or directly to workshops that need them. This creates a sustainable cycle where nothing is wasted.

Combine With Other Systems

Recycled materials can be sold for Trade Coins at your Marketplace, exported via Train Stations to other colonies, or used immediately in construction and crafting. This flexibility makes recycling a cornerstone of efficient resource management.
