Build Metal Extractors early and build them often; they are the only reliable and scalable source of [[Metal]] in the game. Surrounding them with [[Energy|power generators]] will [[Overdrive|increase their yield]]. They can be most efficiently placed using the [[Area Mex Command]].

Placing a [[Solar Collector]] near each Metal Extractor you build is an easy way to start benefiting from Overdrive. Two solar collectors (4 [[File:Energy.png|24x24px|Energy|Energy|link=]]) near a single metal extractor is enough to boost a 2 Metal extractor to 3 Metal. There are diminishing returns on how well energy can overdrive an extractor, requiring 16 Energy to be built to increase that single metal extractor to 4 [[File:Ibeam.png|20x20px|Metal|Metal|link=]].

If you connect multiple extractors and energy structures together, the energy produced in that grid will automatically flow to the extractor that would benefit the most, maximizing metal production.
