Production Amplification uses Somersloops in selected production machines to increase output. Since an artifact is committed to each amplified machine, choose a line whose extra production is worth that limited resource.

Research Production Amplification, select a valuable bottlenecked recipe, and install a Somersloop in the eligible machine. Track the resulting output and input demand so the amplification does not simply move the bottleneck upstream.
Filter a resource, then select a marker or location below for its purity, elevation and coordinates. The map is hosted here.

How to farm
Use an eligible production machine in a factory where a chosen recipe is limiting useful output. Somersloops are found as fixed collectibles, so consider artifact availability before committing them.
Before you go
A Somersloop collected from the world.
MAM research that unlocks Production Amplification.
An eligible machine and a recipe with enough input supply and downstream capacity.
Complete the relevant MAM research and verify that Production Amplification is available.
Identify a recipe whose output is valuable and currently limits the factory.
Check that the chosen machine is eligible and can be supplied with its required inputs.
Install a Somersloop in the machine using the available amplification interface.
Connect the machine to the existing input and output routes, leaving room for increased flow.
Run the line and inspect whether inputs remain supplied and downstream machines can use the output.
Keep the artifact assigned only if the extra production solves a real bottleneck; otherwise reassess the machine choice.
Farming tips
Prioritize a high-value recipe that is genuinely limiting output rather than amplifying a line with excess stock.
Check both input consumption and downstream capacity after enabling amplification.
Repeat, collect and use
Amplifying a selected machine consumes a Somersloop and is a limited allocation, not a renewable farming loop. Production continues while the machine is supplied and powered; further amplification requires additional collected artifacts.
Common mistakes
Using an artifact on a non-bottleneck line can waste its value; compare factory demand before committing.
Ignoring increased input needs can starve the amplified machine; strengthen upstream supply if required.
Failing to expand downstream capacity can back up output and erase the practical benefit; verify the full chain.
When to stop or switch
Stop assigning artifacts when the factory’s limiting recipes have adequate output or when the next amplification would not improve the production goal. Collect another artifact only if its use justifies the exploration cost.
