About this converter
Dyson Sphere direct costs run 1 to 6 parts in this table. Ingots, magnets, coils and gears each cost 1 direct item. Circuit boards, magnetic coils and microcrystalline each cost 3. Electric motors and processors cost 4. Super rings cost 5 and turbines cost 6 and top the table. Every figure is direct ingredients per craft in base game normal mode with no proliferator and no alternate rebalancing mods. Proliferator sprays stay out and are noted per row. Belts and sorters drive logistics but do not change recipe costs.
How to use it
Pick two recipes and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 Turbine against 1 Iron Ingot to see the 6 to 1 gap. All rows use Items, so the unit stays fixed. Click any table row to load it as Entry A with amount 1.
Values pin direct parts only per wiki infobox. Coil pins 1 ingot to 2 coils. Gear pins 1 ingot to 1 gear. Board pins 2 iron plus 1 copper for 3 direct. Motor pins 2 gears plus 2 coils for 4 direct. Turbine pins 2 motors plus 2 coils for 6 direct. Ring pins 2 turbines plus 3 magnets for 5 direct. Proliferator stays out because base recipes are the topic.
