Before you go
- Diamonds recipe and Particle Accelerator.
- Coal delivered at the intended rate.
- Power capacity for the Accelerator’s variable demand.
Farming steps
- Place a Particle Accelerator and select the Diamonds recipe.
- Connect a Coal supply and clear the output route for Diamonds.
- At 100% clock, supply 600 Coal per minute for 30 Diamonds per minute.
- Check that the power grid can support a 250–750 MW variable draw.
- Route Diamonds to Time Crystal or Dark Matter Crystal production as needed.
- If output falls short, inspect Coal delivery and power before adding capacity.
- The default batch consumes 20 Coal and produces 1 Diamond.
- Alternate Diamond recipes require their unlocks and may use other ingredients.
- Diamonds are manufactured, not gathered from resource nodes.
Repeat, collect and use
Keep Coal and power available, then add Accelerator capacity only if consumer demand calls for it.
Common mistakes
- Do not search for natural Diamond nodes; make Diamonds from Coal in a Particle Accelerator.
- Do not assume the Accelerator has a fixed power draw; its listed range is 250–750 MW.
When to stop or switch
Stop increasing Diamond production when consumers stay supplied and the power grid remains reliable.
