Milling Upgrade

Efficiency Modules

Basic Upgrade that greatly increases efficiency when crafting Milling recipes.

Notes

The Milling Upgrade is a Basic Upgrade module that fits into any crafting station's module slot to reduce resource cost and craft time for milling recipes, such as those processing grains or wood. Because it is a Basic Upgrade (the lowest tier), it works in any room regardless of tier, making it accessible early on. If you specialize in milling-related professions, installing this upgrade on your station will make large batch crafts more efficient.
