— In-game description |
The Sulfur Field is a Resource Field where Players can collect Sulfur.
Construction
It cannot be built, it is found in the world. Its location is indicated by an icon on the map.
Resource Field locations are randomly selected by the game at the start of each war and do not change.
Use
Sulfur Collection
A Sulfur Field is composed of a large decorative center piece that can't be mined and smaller Sulfur nodes strewn around it that you mine. Sulfur nodes are mined by hitting them with a Sledge Hammer, or Harvester (hold Left Click
). The Sulfur Field starts with 30 nodes spawned on the ground, and 167 more in its reserve. When a node on the field is harvested, a node from the reserve will spawn in after a few seconds. The amount of nodes left in the field's reserve can be seen by hovering your mouse over a field's icon on the map (only if your faction owns the Region Zone it's in) or by pressing E
on a field's large center piece. The appearance of the large center piece also becomes more depleted the fewer nodes are left in reserve. Once fully depleted, the field replenishes after 6-8 real life hours (depends on player population). If you mine the reserve nodes till around 20, the number shall drop suddenly to zero and then respawn counter starts. If the field is left with nodes (after resetting), they shall add to the spawned number, i.e, you can have fresh Sulfur Fields with more than 167 nodes at start
When mined, a node splits into two smaller pieces which themselves split into even tinier pieces. Fully mining one node yields 154 Sulfur by default, meaning an entire field is worth more than 30,000 Sulfur.
Rarely a Field spawns a High Yield resource node. They are identified by a bright light on top of them and yield a much higher amount of resources for the same mining effort
Stationary Harvester
Up to 3 Stationary Harvester (Sulfur) can be built by player next to a given sulfur field. They automatically retrieve sulfur from the field's node reserve at a slow pace and consume Heavy Oil. Hovering the cursor over the field's icon on the map will show you how much resource is currently stored in the field's Stationary Harvesters.
Resource Transport
Collected Sulfur can be transported by Trucks.
Resource Containers can be brought by Flatbed, Barge, or Freighter then unloaded with a Crane at a resource field to be manually filled with raw resources. The container can hold way more resources than Trucks.
Resistance
Sulfur Fields cannot be destroyed.
