Raw resources. Every craftable ingredient is expanded down to base resources — this is the total you need to gather from scratch. Sub-component yields (e.g. Metal Ingots per smelt) are accounted for, and totals are rounded up to whole units.

A Tek Generator burns 1 Element (100 Element Shards) every 18 hours at radius 1.0, plus 0.33 more per extra unit of radius. 100 shards count as 1 Element. Lower the radius to cover less ground for far longer uptime.
