Rewrite.png
This article is suggested to be rewritten. Reason: It would be very useful to have the reasonable optimum steel returns per tick as well as the average ones so we can see what is best in late game colonies. Not theoretical optimums but reasonable ones for example, is deep drilling with a Intellectual 20 scanner and Mining 20, Dual Drill Arms miner better than a 2-archotech-armed smelter, not a Manipulation 355% smelter with every possible bonus. You can help the RimWorld Wiki by improving it.
Main article: Steel

Calculations for all items in Steel#Acquisition analysis. Assume healthy pawns in full light in Strive to Survive difficulty. All numbers are rounded to 1 decimal point; unrounded numbers used for all calculations.

Mining steel ore[edit]

Relevant stats: Mining Speed, Mining Yield, difficulty.

For 8 Mining skill, healthy pawn :

(1900 ticks / 40 steel) = 47.5 ticks (0.79 secs) per steel.

  • Plus travel time.

Deconstruction[edit]

Relevant stats: Construction Speed, item in question

For 8 Construction skill, healthy pawn, against a wall:

  • 135 ticks (2.25 secs) to deconstruct a steel wall. Construction Speed = 100%.[Verify]
  • 2.5 steel per wall. All items give half their steel.

(135 ticks / 2.5 steel) = 54 ticks (0.9 secs) per steel.

  • Plus travel time.

Smelting[edit]

Relevant stats: General Labor Speed, item smelted

Steel slag chunks[edit]

For a healthy pawn:

(400 ticks / 15 steel) = 26.7 ticks (0.45 secs) per steel

  • Plus travel time.

Weapons and apparel[edit]

For a healthy pawn:

(1600 ticks / 7 steel) = 228.6 ticks (3.81 secs) per steel

Shredding[edit]

Relevant stats: Mechanoid Shredding Efficiency, Mechanoid Shredding Speed, mechanoid type, Missing Body Parts, whenever done on a machining table

For 10 Crafting skill, healthy pawn:

  • 300 ticks (5 secs) to shred a mechanoid. Mechanoid Shredding Speed = 100%. Constant per mechanoid.
  • 15 steel per scyther or lancer. 0% Missing Body Parts.
  • 5 steel per war urchin -> 2.5 steel @ 50% Missing Body parts

(300 ticks / 15 steel) = 20 ticks (0.33 secs) per steel (0% missing lancer)
(300 ticks / 2.5 steel) = 120 ticks (2 secs) per steel (50% missing w. urchin)

Deep Drilling[edit]

Relevant stats: Research Speed, Deep Drilling Speed, Mining Yield

For 8 Intellectual + 8 Mining skill, healthy pawn(s):

  • 180,000 ticks (50 mins) average to find any deposit. Research Speed = 100%.
    • (4/7.5) = 53% to get steel. 337,500 ticks (93.75 mins) average to find a steel deposit. (not rounded in calculations)
  • Average 9000 steel per deposit.
  • (180000 ticks * .53 steel / 9000 ticks) = 37.5 ticks (0.63 secs) per steel scan
  • 14,000 ticks (3.89 mins) per deep drill cycle. Deep Drilling Speed = 100%.
  • 35 steel per deep drill cycle. Mining Yield = 100%.
  • (14000 ticks / 35 steel) = 400 ticks (6.67 secs) per steel spent mining.

437.5 ticks (7.29 secs) per steel (scan + mine).

  • Plus travel time.

Long-range mineral scanner[edit]

Relevant stats: Research Speed, Mining Speed, Mining Yield, difficulty, means of travel

For 8 Intellectual + 8 Mining skill, healthy pawn(s):

  • 240,000 ticks (66.67 mins) average to find deposit. Research Speed = 100%.
  • Average 2250 steel. Mining Yield = 100%.
  • (2400000 ticks / 2250 steel) = 106.7 ticks (1.78 secs) per steel spent scanning.
  • 1,900 ticks (31.67 secs) to mine an ore. Mining Speed = 100%. [Verify]
  • 40 steel per ore. Mining Yield = 100%.
  • (1900 ticks / 40 steel) = 47.5 ticks (0.79 secs) per steel spent mining.

154.2 ticks (2.57 secs) per steel (scan + mine).

  • Plus travel time, plus combat time (multiple days w/o transport pods)

Transport pods[edit]

Other relevant stats: How you get chemfuel

  • 1700 steel per scan.
  • (2400000 ticks / 1700 steel) = 141.2 ticks (2.35 secs) per steel spent scanning.
  • (1900 ticks / 40 steel) = 47.5 ticks (0.79 secs) per steel spent mining.
  • Chemfuel variable work based on how you get it and how far you need to go.
  • 33,095.5 ticks (9.19 mins) total to create 350 chemfuel from corn in a biofuel refinery. Enough for a 10-tile trip. Plant Work Speed & Harvest Yield = 100%
  • 14,400 ticks (4 mins) to build 8 pods + 1 launcher.
  • (14400 ticks / 1700 steel) = 8.5 ticks (0.14 secs) per steel building pods.

216.6 ticks (3.61 secs) per steel (scan + mine + pod + fuel from corn).

  • Plus loading time, plus combat time

Transport pods + Farskip[edit]

Other relvant stats: How you get chemfuel, psyfocus meditation rate. Assuming you send 2 pawns, which may not exactly be safe.

  • 2188 average steel per scan. 1 transport pod (-62 steel) to location.
