There are four main types of infrastructure: Lifeforce Collector (harvests your plants and lets you craft), Disperser (uses Condensed Lifeforce to grow advanced plants), Storage Tank (holds more Condensed Lifeforce for later use) and Pylon (used to connect pieces of your infrastructure). Oshabi will give you some infrastructure freely, but you can craft more later on.
Pylon creates Lifeforce Conduits between Collectors, Storage Tanks, and Dispersers.
Pylons must be placed between each infrastructure element you wish to connect, and can be used to extend the distance at which each infrastructure element will function.
The first Pylon you get from Oshabi for quests with her. After that, you’ll need to craft it for 10 lifeforces. This option is available after you harvest the seeds.
Right-click a Pylon then left-click a location within the Sacred Grove to place it.
Click “Add Conduit” icon to connect Collectors, Storage Tanks, and Dispersers.
You can also get Pylon back to your inventory: Control-Click to return this Pylon to your inventory. This will disconnect any attached Pylon conduits.
