Electromagnetic Shield Tower

The Electromagnetic Shield Tower protects nearby structures from interference caused by magnetic storm radiation. Upgrade the tower using Resistance Crystals to significantly raise its Resistance rating and extend protection to adjacent buildings.

Key points

  • Primary function: reduce damage/interference from magnetic storms for nearby structures.
  • Upgrades: consume Resistance Crystals to raise the tower's Resistance stat.
  • Placement tip: position the tower centrally among critical infrastructure to maximize its protective radius.

Ore Refinery

The Ore Refinery converts Magnetite Ore into Resistance Crystals, the resource required to upgrade Electromagnetic Shield Towers. Keep a steady supply of Magnetite Ore flowing into your refinery to maintain continuous upgrades.

Setup tips

  • Ensure consistent Magnetite Ore logistics (mines, conveyors, storage) to avoid upgrade bottlenecks.
  • Consider co-locating refineries near your towers to reduce transport time and vulnerability during storms.
