The right-most stage in the chart represents the final step in producing the end product. While it is functionally no different than other production stages, all of the listed products must be stored or distributed at this point to avoid clogging the production line. | The right-most stage in the chart represents the final step in producing the end product.

== Tips and Tricks == | |||
=== Scaling === | |||
Charts are generally listed at the lowest denomination which provides full efficiency. To scale up the quantity, a user can simply multiply all quantities of items and buildings by the appropriate integer to get the output they desire. In ''Example 1'', simply multiply by 10, and a factory of 10 Smelters can produce 600 Stone Brick per minute if supplied with 600 Stone per minute. | |||
Scaling down is more difficult, as it will generally lead to inefficiency and sometimes extra items at certain stages that will have to be disposed of to avoid clogging. In ''Example 1'' above, cutting to 10% of the listed production can be done by only supplying 6 stone per minute to produce 6 stone bricks, but the single smelter cannot be reduced, and thus the smelter will spend most of the time not working. | |||
