CRAFTING & INGREDIENTS

Snowball acquisition

Use the Snowball recipe in a Constructor and feed it FICSMAS Actual Snow. At 100% clock, the Constructor consumes 15 snow per minute and produces 5 Snowballs per minute.

Snowballs are projectiles made from FICSMAS Actual Snow in a Constructor. Each batch uses 3 Actual Snow and produces 1 Snowball. To supply the Constructor, collect FICSMAS Gifts from falling event gifts or unlocked Gift Trees, then process them into snow: 5 Gifts produce 2 FICSMAS Actual Snow in a Constructor. Check that the Snowball recipe is available before setting up production.

GET STARTED

How to craft

Before you craft

Snowball recipe available and unlocked.
Constructor and FICSMAS Actual Snow supply; 3 snow per batch.

Collect FICSMAS Gifts from falling event gifts or from Gift Trees you have unlocked.
Use a Constructor to turn 5 Gifts into 2 FICSMAS Actual Snow.
Build and power another Constructor, then select the Snowball recipe.
Connect the Actual Snow supply and confirm it reaches the input.
Collect or route the Snowballs from the output.
Load the projectiles for use and replenish your stock as needed.

Crafting tips

Each Snowball batch uses 3 Actual Snow, so plan your snow supply around your ammunition target.
At full rate, the Snowball Constructor needs 15 snow per minute.

Repeat, collect and use

Keep producing while you have Actual Snow available and want additional ammunition.

Common mistakes

Treating FICSMAS Actual Snow as a standard mineral deposit.
Looking for a Snowball deposit instead of converting Actual Snow in a Constructor.

When to stop or switch

Stop when your ammunition reserve is sufficient or your Actual Snow is better used elsewhere.
