=================== Ores & Ancient Tech =================== .. raw:: html .. role:: red .. role:: blue .. role:: green .. role:: brown .. role:: gold Ores ==== Ores are crucial in this game. Not only do they support your respective company's goal of monetary gain and ruling the technological world, but they also increase your game points! Here are the different ores you can mine. Copium ------ .. |pepe copium| image:: ./_static/images/pepe_copium.png :width: 35 .. image:: ./_static/images/copium.png :width: 90 :align: center A very basic ore that's a commodity for every MOB-BOT. Everyone wants :green:`Copium`. Who doesn't want :green:`Copium`? |pepe copium| Mining this ore will yield :gold:`20 game points`, regardless of company affiliation. Lambdium -------- .. image:: ./_static/images/lambdium.png :width: 90 :align: center :blue:`Lambdium` is the favored ore by :blue:`Church Inc.` :blue:`Lambdium` is what powers their MOB-BOTs and allows them to continue research for investigating something called 'anonymous functions,' whatever those are. If you are affiliated with :blue:`Church Inc.`, any :blue:`Lambdium` you mine will yield :gold:`80 game points`! That's a steal! If you are affiliated with :red:`Turing Co.`, the :blue:`Lambdium` you mine will be worth :gold:`24 game points`. It's still valuable, but it's not what you want. It's (barely) better than :green:`Copium`, though! Turite ------ .. image:: ./_static/images/turite.png :width: 90 :align: center :red:`Turite` is the favored ore by Turing Inc. :red:`Turite` will power Turing Machine-based MOB-BOTs and improve their systems to become more turing complete! Fascinating. :red:`Turing Co.` will yield :gold:`80 game points` for every :red:`Turite` they cash in. If you are affiliated with :blue:`Church Inc.`, :red:`Turite` will yield :gold:`24 game points` for you. That's still worthwhile, but again, it's (barely) better than :green:`Copium`. Ancient Tech ============ .. |doors logo| image:: ./_static/images/doors_logo.png :width: 35 .. image:: ./_static/images/ancient_tech.png :width: 90 :align: center In The Quarry, there is another strange material called :brown:`Ancient Tech`. When refined, its shape is oddly reminiscent of something from the distant past... |doors logo| Regardless, :brown:`Ancient Tech` is unique in that it doesn't yield game points, but science points. :gold:`10 science points` are gained for each Ancient Tech that is cashed in. These points will allow you to upgrade your MOB-BOT. These upgrades include faster movement speed, placing dynamite, placing traps, and a few other things. Upgrades are explained more in :doc:`mobbot`. For more information on Ores and Ancient Tech scoring, visit :doc:`scoring`.
