Violet Roman Candle

Fuel is most of the price, so where your fuel comes from sets it. With a refinery running or looted fuel in a box, this candle is mostly frags.

About this craft

Skip the fat-and-cloth line if your base already makes fuel. The calculator unfolds low grade fuel the long way, from animal fat and cloth. A group running a small oil refinery on crude, or holding fuel looted from barrels, already has the costly half of this candle in a box, and what is left is a few metal fragments.

That helps only players who own the candle on Steam. Nobody else ever sees the recipe, and research cannot change it.

Leave enough fuel for lanterns and the small generator before you queue a row. A violet volcano next to the candles swaps fuel for gun powder; the violet boomer wants both.
