Frequently Asked Questions

How do you determine the item cost? Does this come from the game?

No, the item cost does not come directly from the game. It is calculated based on the recipes for that item. If there are multiple recipes to produce an item, the cheapest one is used. It's calculated by summing the cost of the components and the heat cost (if any)

How is the heat cost calculated?

The heat cost is calculated by determining the length of time the recipe uses and the device used to get a total heat amount, then that amount is divided by the approximate cost per heat produced, which is about 20 heat per copper for most fuels. Note that, while this is fairly accurate in the early game, it would be less accurate as the player progresses due to increased fuel efficiency and reduced building time. This means that the heat cost will be over-estimated later in the game. Luckily the heat cost is relatively minor compared to the component cost for most items, so this difference should be fairly negligible.

Are you 100% sure all values are correct?

No. I make my best effort to have accurate data, but it's possible there are mistakes. If you find something that you think is incorrect, please email me at contact@alchemy-factory-codex.com

Are you associated with D5 Copperhead or Gamirror Games?

No, I'm just a fan of the game and made this website for fun
