About the brick machine
- With a Brick Machine, you can make Bricks, Wet Firebricks or Wet Clay Bricks.
- It makes the bricks in batches of 6. Bricks can be removed and raw materials may be added while the Brick Machine is running
- It may be tuned to run faster using the Mechanics skill.
Standard version (non-upgraded)
- Capacity: You can load it up with mats for up to 300 bricks at a time.
- Speed: It makes bricks at a rate of 300 bricks per ~40 minutes.
Upgraded version
- Capacity: You can load it up with mats for up to 900 bricks at a time.
- Speed: same as non-upgraded? Thus 900 bricks in ~2 hours? (not confirmed yet)
- I measured my upgraded brick machine as doing 6 bricks every 45 teppyseconds, which is consistent with this. --Inkoaten 22:44, 6 May 2009 (EST)
Note: The skill Structure Reinforcement is needed in order to upgrade a brick machine.
