Progression
Steam Age
Build a compact bronze steam line before scaling. Steam machines are slow, but they teach the loops you will automate later.
Steel Age
Coke Oven and Steam Blast Furnace unlock steel. Steel unlocks durable steam machines, the first Quarry, and the Packer/Unpacker loop.
Electric Age
The Assembler and LV machines move MI from hand-fed stations to renewable component production.
Aluminum And Oil
The Electric Blast Furnace opens aluminum. Oil then becomes the long chemical bridge toward plastics, rubber, diesel, and higher circuits.
Reference Entry Points

Frequently Needed Machines
Cutting Machine
The efficient rod/sawing machine; important for motors, small parts, silicon wafers, sticks, and wood cuts.
Compressor
Compresses ingots into plates, plates into curved plates, rods into rings, and dusts into dense resources.
Assembler
Condenses complex component recipes and becomes the default way to craft machines and circuits.
Quarry
Consumes drill heads to make ores and raw resources renewable through MI infrastructure.
Distillation Tower
Processes oil streams into the useful fractions needed for fuels, plastics, and petrochemicals.
Processing Array
Runs many inserted electric crafting machines in parallel.
Farmer
Steam and electric farm automation with configurable footprint sizes.
