Overview

Raeli ovens are semi-automated structures used to manufacture Raeli Tiles. They can also be upgraded to automatically dig for clay. They cannot be built within 50 coordinates (800 feet) of another Raeli oven.

Raeli ovens are built on patches of clay (from which the tiles are produced).

Note: According the Pluribus the current version of the Raeli Oven is the "Flimsy Brickrack" version of Raeli.

Source

Raeli ovens become available after learning the Raeli Pottery technology from the University of Art & Music.

Construction Costs

Initial Construction

• 3000 Clay Bricks
• 500 Concrete
• 100 Copper Wire
• 25 Sun Steel Sheeting
• 20 Clay Steeped Wool Cloth
• 10 Bearings
• 21 Small Gears of Metal A (Metal determined by Region)
• 7 Medium Gears of Metal B (Metal determined by Region)
• 3 Metal Bars of Metal C (Metal determined by Region)
• 2 6000+ Quality Carpentry Blade
• 999 Resin A (Resin determined by choice of Resins available at UArts you have visited)
• 488 Resin B (Resin determined by a random personal assignment, which never changes)
• 1 random 3-output gearbox (Gearbox determined by location)

• Built: outside, in a Small Construction Site placed on the correct terrain (clay).

Usage Costs

Each time you wish to burn the tiles into colours, you will need:

• 25 Charcoal

Upgrade: Clay Dredge

Raeli ovens can be upgraded to dredge clay instead of tiles. The option "Upgrade Oven with Clay Dredge" appears on the main oven menu provided you know Raeli Pottery and the oven isn't dredging or burning tiles.

To collect clay instead of tiles, requires:

• 1 Iron Pot
• 10 Bolt
• 10 Washer
• 1 Deckle

Note - When dredging clay the oven will not gather tiles, you can dredge tiles or clay, not both! After the upgrade you can choose which you would like the oven to do. Clay appears to be gathered at roughly the same rate that tiles would be.

Strengthen the Mechanism

When the Raeli oven is not in operation the user has the option to Strengthen the Mechanism. This will upgrade the Raeli Oven to work faster. How much faster is currently unknown. The oven will only allow you upgrade if you have learned Structural Reinforcement.

It can be upgraded up to 7 times. To build Level 3, you must have already have built Level 1 and Level 2. Level 6 would first need levels 1, then 2, then 3, then 4, then 5 before you can do level 6. Therefore the total actual costs to reach each level is

Operation

Raeli ovens continually dredge clay from the ground, accumulating it as unbaked Raeli Tiles. At any time the owner may start baking the accumulated tiles; this costs 25 Charcoal and halts the dredging process. All tiles must be baked together -- it is not possible to bake some tiles and leave the others unbaked. It is not possible to remove unbaked tiles from an oven.

As the Raeli tiles bake, they gradually change color. All tiles begin as White and slowly cycle through a progressively darkening series of colors in 128 decrements that each vary from 10-120 seconds, ending up as Black after 6 hours of game time, or a bit more than 2 hours. The exact colors that tiles pass through on their transition from White to Black depends on where the Raeli oven was built.

The owner of the Raeli oven may interrupt the baking process at any time to stop the tiles at a particular color. Once tiles have stopped baking, they cannot be re-baked later to change their color. After halting the baking process, the Raeli oven can be restarted to dredge new tiles.

The rate of dredging is redetermined each time dredging is started. The hidden¹ Raeli Operation skill appears to affect dredging speed. Halting the baking process appears to contribute to increases in your Raeli Operation skill.

¹ Raeli Operation skill was hidden prior to T4.

Pollution

In previous tellings, Raeli Ovens produced soot when fired, which could prevent such things as growing Flax, harvesting Fresh Leaves, and others. So far, no pollution has been reported in T7.
