Revision as of 21:25, 27 April 2023 by imported>76561198048211871 (→‎Components: Recipe on Casimir Crystal page was correct as requiring 8 optical grating crystals, which matches the ingame recipe in the Replicator. This Optical Grating Crystal page incorrectly said that recipe needed 4. I am just correcting that.)

Player Tips & Tricks

Optical Grating Crystal is extremely valuable in the late game, as it greatly simplifies production of Photon Combiners (necessary for Solar Sails) and Casimir Crystals (necessary for Quantum Chips and, by extension, Small Carrier Rockets).

Small amounts of Optical Grating Crystal can be randomly obtained by breaking rocks on lava planets.
