Q00P ORIGINAL GAME UTILITY
Moonforge Colony Production Calculator
Read your local Moonforge Colony save or configure a colony manually. The calculator mirrors the production constants used by Moonforge Colony v1.0.0 and separates exact game rates from logistics estimates.

HOW THE CALCULATOR WORKS
Built from Moonforge Colony's production rules
Moonforge Colony does not use one generic “income per minute” number. Mining, storage, vehicle transfer and refining are separate systems. Drill output is determined by every built Mining Drill and the Faster Drilling, Rich Ore Detection and Automation research multipliers. Mine storage is a different limit and Deep Mining increases that capacity without directly increasing drill speed.
Hauler capacity and speed are also separate. Depot level changes cargo capacity and vehicle speed, while Bigger Hauler, Faster Loading and Smart Routing improve different parts of the logistics chain. The game uses a single loading bay and destination queues, so actual convoy throughput depends on travel distance, target position, queue state and how many haulers are active. For that reason, this calculator reports exact loading and unloading ceilings but does not label a simplified travel estimate as an exact game rate.
Refineries use level-based processing cycles. Efficient Processing changes the recipe from 5 Ore per Metal cycle to 4 Ore, Faster Refining raises cycle speed, Metal Multiplication raises metal yield, and Automation applies the colony-wide multiplier. The live Metal figure above assumes the refinery has enough ore to remain continuously fed.
Offline production intentionally uses a different model. Moonforge applies only 42% of drill output, caps offline mining to 75% of warehouse capacity, applies a 32% refinery factor, and limits away time to four hours. This page reproduces that offline formula separately so an online production number is never confused with an away-time estimate.
