Factory · Production operations
Find what you can produce, see the ingredients and workstation required, compare manufacturing with importing, and diagnose why production has stopped.

This quick comparison uses current base wholesale ingredient values. It does not include payroll, rent, factory overhead, downtime or distribution.
Factory Worker output uses raw skill. Satisfaction does not multiply this recovered recipe-output formula.
View Factory Worker skill →Recipe output follows round(base output × (0.5 + skill / 200)). The current scenario uses Skill 60.

Production checks run in operational order. The first failed condition is the most useful place to investigate.
A healthy factory can still leave stores empty when storage, destinations or delivery routes become the bottleneck.

Recipes define ingredients and output. Every current factory recipe connects one or more input items to a fixed base output. The Recipe Finder uses the current production data in both directions, so an output finds its recipe and an ingredient can find the products that consume it.
Each recipe belongs to a compatible workstation. Food, consumer goods, bottled goods, clothing, garden, electronics and jewelry production use different assembly and production-machine families. A valid recipe still needs its matching equipment to operate.
Factory Worker skill changes actual recipe output. The recovered production path scales base output from 50% at Skill 0 to 100% at Skill 100. This path uses raw Factory Worker skill; employee satisfaction is not an additional multiplier in that output formula.
Production also depends on storage and distribution. An open factory with workers and ingredients can stop when output space is full or a Produce Up To limit is reached. After production, warehouse stock, Logistics Manager destination capacity, vehicles and delivery routes determine whether finished goods reach a selling business.
