When you build a transmitter you need at least a rack and a crystal cube of each color. (Transmitter parts)
When you mount a transmitter you need at least a rack and crystal containers of all types. (Transmitter parts)


You normally get transmitter parts by transforming [[worker]]s using your [[Base|worker to transmitter parts transformer facility]].

The level (= score) of the transmitter is the lowest value of a crystal cube in a color and then squared. (Example: Cubes of level 2,3,4,3,4 gives you 2 as the lowest and then squared, 2 * 2 = 4.)

:A place to mount the various cubes (containers). The rack can be found in treasures or gained (randomly) when transforming a worker into scorer parts.

:Increases the number of cubes of that type that may be added. The sum of the cube's level counts. Exists in 2 and 3-level variants. [[Treasure]]s is currently the easiest way to get them but you may also receive them when transforming [[worker]]s into transmitter parts.

:Takes the average value of the crystal containers instead of the lowest. Useful when you have big ones in some colors but not in others.
