Glass

Glass is a crafting material used mainly for building the Salon and the Perfumery, and for making Glass Bottle. Outside of Solar Panel-related production, it is not an item that is consumed in large quantities, so a colony does not necessarily need to produce it locally; it can also be imported from the nearby city of Soldem.

If you do choose to manufacture Glass yourself, the usual chain is to import Sandrock, turn it into sand at a Masonry, and then process that sand at a Furnace. This is not a very efficient workflow overall, since Furnace processing may also require other materials such as Lime Powder and coal. Glass can also be used in place of Crystal when crafting Glass Craft, but it is usually better to reserve Glass for Glass Bottle and use any surplus for that purpose.

• Primary uses: Salon, Perfumery, Glass Bottle
• Alternative use: replaces Crystal in Glass Craft
• Production note: made from Sandrock via Masonry and Furnace, but local production is often less efficient than importing it
