Labs are buildings that perform research by consuming science packs. Use of a lab is required to progress in Factorio.
Production
Labs take two inputs: Electricity and Science pack.
There are seven Science packs:
- Science pack 1
- Science pack 2
- Science pack 3
- Military science pack
- Production science pack
- High tech science pack
- Space science pack
Labs output: Research progress.
Each force can research one science at a time, but can use many labs for faster results. The speed bonus of labs when Lab research speed is researched and modules are present can be calculatd using this formula: research_bonus * module_bonus = speed_bonus; the percentage bonuses have to be converted to decimals (e.g. +140% = 2.4) before the formula is used.
History
- 0.12.6:
- The research speed of a lab is now not dependent on its electricity consumption, and can be scripted.
- 0.12.0:
- Lab research is now continuous; Science packs now have progress bars.
- 0.7.2:
- Changed the recipe of Lab to require 4 transport belts, down from 5.
- 0.6.0:
- New graphics.
- 0.2.7:
- Contents of the Lab is now shown in the entity info.
- 0.1.0:
- Introduced
