=== Electrical furnace ===
----
Electrical furnaces provide 2 module slots which make them more flexible for special purposes. The use of electrical power makes them independent from a direct power source, but the huge heating devices take some extra space, which makes the electrical furnace slightly bigger than the burner furnaces.

Quick summary

Furnaces are used to smelt resources into usable products for further usage. This makes them a key building for development and automation. Starting with very basic stone furnaces the player can advance through research and replace them with more efficient and faster furnaces later in the game.

Furnaces with module slots are affected by beacons. Currently this is only the case for electric furnaces.
