RimWorld: All info about steel - how to get the material

Steel is one of the most important materials in RimWorld. It is needed for many purposes, so you should always have it in stock or know how to get it. Our guide will help.

Heart of steel: the material is vital for almost all applications.

Without steel, many important items cannot be built, from firearms to engineering devices and defenses.

RimWorld: Steel is available almost always and everywhere

You can get steel in the following ways:

• First and foremost, you collect steel by mining compressed steel. You can find this on all maps in rock formations, often even extremely numerous.
• In addition, you are often strengthened by supply capsules with steel.
• An important source is also metal scrap. This lies around distributed on the map and can be converted into steel by melting. For this you need an electric melting furnace, which costs 170 steel and 2 components and requires 700 watts of electricity.
• Last but not least, you can buy steel from many NPCs via trade.

You should thus never lack steel. Es ist ratsam, eine eigene Lagerzone für Stahl anzulegen und dort immer ein gewisses Kontingent zu sammeln, damit Sie das Material schnell zur Hand haben, sobald es benötigt wird.
