Steel is a plentiful building and crafting material which is crucial throughout the game. It is a requirement in the production of almost all production tables and defensive structures, and can be used to produce effective weapons and armor.
Although steel is common on most maps, it is still a limited resource, and should not be used carelessly. For example, steel walls may be superior to wooden ones, but are far inferior to stone walls, being more fragile and flammable.
Obtaining
Tiles of "compacted steel" can be found on any map, but must be mined before they can be used. Steel can also be purchased from bulk goods traders, or extracted from certain metal objects at an electric smelter. It may also be dropped by defeated mechanoids and (less often) raiders.
Ore
Compacted steel tiles have 1500 HP each, making them one of the faster ores to mine. They can be found in large veins, ranging from 20 to 40 tiles in size. Every tile of ore drops 35 steel when mined, although miners with less than 8 skill in mining will produce significantly less.
