Objectives

  • Iron Ingot >= 20.0/min
  • All inputs connected

Briefing from ATA

Welcome to FICSIT, Pioneer. This is your very first training exercise.

We've set up a basic smelting operation for you, but the supply line is disconnected. Your task is simple: connect the Iron Ore resource to the Smelter.

Click the smelter's input, find the resource node, and create the link. Even the last trainee managed this. Eventually.

Mission constraints

  • Iron Ore: 60/min available
  • Available recipes: Iron Ingot.
  • Available buildings: Smelter.
  • Par time: 0:30 · a guide, not a deadline
  • No Somersloops.
  • Output targets count surplus available after your factory's own consumption.

Hint 1

Look at the smelter's input — it shows Iron Ore is needed but not connected.

Hint 2

Click on the smelter group to expand it, then click the link icon next to Iron Ore.

Hint 3

Select the Iron Ore resource node as the source.
