'''Glass''' is a refined [[Resources|resource]] in [[Main Page|Project Rebearth]], produced at the [[Glassworks]] by processing {{Icon|Earth}}. It is consumed by the [[University]] for ongoing research and serves as a construction material for several high-tier buildings. {{Icon|Glass}} production is not available in the [[Arctic Biome|Arctic]] biome, making it a resource that must be imported or obtained through [[Expeditions]] in Arctic settlements.

== Overview ==
The [[Glassworks]] converts {{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=glassworks|data=rate|resource=earth}}}} {{Icon|Earth}}/day into {{BuildingData|name=glassworks|data=rate|resource=glass}} {{Icon|Glass}}/day, consuming {{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=glassworks|data=rate|resource=tools}}}} {{Icon|Tools}}/day in the process. It requires {{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=glassworks|data=balance|resource=population}}}} workers and stores up to {{BuildingData|name=glassworks|data=storage|resource=volume}} {{Icon|Glass}} internally.

The [[University]] consumes {{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=university|data=rate|resource=glass}}}} {{Icon|Glass}}/day alongside {{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=university|data=rate|resource=coin}}}} {{Icon|Coin}}/day to produce {{BuildingData|name=university|data=rate|resource=knowledge}} {{Icon|Knowledge}}/day, requiring {{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=university|data=balance|resource=population}}}} workers. Since the Glassworks produces {{BuildingData|name=glassworks|data=rate|resource=glass}} {{Icon|Glass}}/day and each University consumes {{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=university|data=rate|resource=glass}}}}/day, a single Glassworks can supply one University.

{{Icon|Glass}} is also a construction material for the [[Town Hall]] ({{BuildingData|name=town_hall|data=cost|biome=wood|resource=glass}} {{Icon|Glass}}), [[University]] ({{BuildingData|name=university|data=cost|biome=wood|resource=glass}} {{Icon|Glass}}), and [[Museum]] ({{BuildingData|name=museum|data=cost|biome=wood|resource=glass}} {{Icon|Glass}}). The Glassworks itself is not available in the [[Arctic Biome]], so Arctic settlements must import {{Icon|Glass}} via [[Trade]] or obtain it from [[Expeditions]].

The [[Glassworks]] is the only building that produces {{Icon|Glass}}. It requires a steady supply of {{Icon|Earth}} (typically from a [[Claypit]]) and a small ongoing {{Icon|Tools}} cost.

== Production chains ==
=== Research chain ===
{{Chain|Earth|Glassworks|Glass|University|Knowledge|title=Research Chain}}

The primary chain consuming {{Icon|Glass}}. The [[Glassworks]] converts {{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=glassworks|data=rate|resource=earth}}}} {{Icon|Earth}}/day into {{BuildingData|name=glassworks|data=rate|resource=glass}} {{Icon|Glass}}/day ({{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=glassworks|data=balance|resource=population}}}} workers), and the [[University]] consumes {{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=university|data=rate|resource=glass}}}} {{Icon|Glass}}/day to produce {{BuildingData|name=university|data=rate|resource=knowledge}} {{Icon|Knowledge}}/day ({{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=university|data=balance|resource=population}}}} workers). The University also consumes {{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=university|data=rate|resource=coin}}}} {{Icon|Coin}}/day.

== Consumption ==
<div class="rb-table-frame"><div class="rb-table-inner">
{| class="rb-table"
|-
! Building !! {{Icon|Glass}} Rate !! Output !! Workers !! Notes
|-
| [[University]] || {{BuildingData|name=university|data=rate|resource=glass|color=yes}}/day || {{BuildingData|name=university|data=rate|resource=knowledge|color=yes}} {{Icon|Knowledge}}/day || {{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=university|data=balance|resource=population}}}} || Also consumes {{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=university|data=rate|resource=coin}}}} {{Icon|Coin}}/day
|}
</div></div>

The [[University]] is the only building that consumes {{Icon|Glass}} as an ongoing operational cost. It converts {{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=university|data=rate|resource=glass}}}} {{Icon|Glass}}/day and {{#expr:0-{{BuildingData|name=university|data=rate|resource=coin}}}} {{Icon|Coin}}/day into {{BuildingData|name=university|data=rate|resource=knowledge}} {{Icon|Knowledge}}/day.

== Construction ==
{{Icon|Glass}} is required as a construction material for several high-tier buildings:

<div class="rb-table-frame"><div class="rb-table-inner">
{| class="rb-table"
|-
! Building !! {{Icon|Glass}} Required !! Category
|-
| [[Town Hall]] || {{BuildingData|name=town_hall|data=cost|biome=wood|resource=glass}} || Town
|-
| [[University]] || {{BuildingData|name=university|data=cost|biome=wood|resource=glass}} || Research
|-
| [[Museum]] || {{BuildingData|name=museum|data=cost|biome=wood|resource=glass}} || Research
|}
</div></div>

The [[University]] and [[Museum]] each require {{BuildingData|name=university|data=cost|biome=wood|resource=glass}} {{Icon|Glass}} to construct, making them among the most glass-intensive buildings. The [[Town Hall]] requires a smaller amount of {{BuildingData|name=town_hall|data=cost|biome=wood|resource=glass}} {{Icon|Glass}}.

== Storage ==

|-
| [[Glassworks]] || {{BuildingData|name=glassworks|data=storage|resource=volume}} || {{Icon|Glass}} only
|}
</div></div>

== Other sources ==
{{Icon|Glass}} is one of the resources (alongside {{Icon|Wood}}, {{Icon|Stone}}, and {{Icon|Earth}}) that can be obtained from [[Expeditions]]. Expeditions yield a random basic resource at a rate of 15 per 1,000 hectares of explored area. This makes Expeditions an important supplementary source of {{Icon|Glass}}, particularly for [[Arctic Biome|Arctic]] settlements where the [[Glassworks]] cannot be built.

{{Icon|Glass}} can also be purchased from other players through the [[Market]] (up to {{formatnum:{{BuildingData|name=market|data=marketStorage}}}} capacity) or the [[Port]] (up to {{formatnum:{{BuildingData|name=port|data=marketStorage}}}} capacity).

== Affected by ==
{{Icon|Glass}} production at the [[Glassworks]] is affected only by the all production modifier, which applies to every production building in the settlement. Since the Glassworks is a refined and manufactured category building (not food or resources), it is not affected by food production or goods production modifiers. The goods production effect targets only {{Icon|Wood}}, {{Icon|Stone}}, and {{Icon|Earth}}.
