NIGHTWATER / BUILDING DATABASE

Altar

The Altar's production interval is four seconds in the 1.0.11 developer note, changed from 1.5 seconds. That establishes an interval, not the number of items produced per cycle. Do not use an old interval to size a production chain, or confuse this building timing with the secret-altar interactions described in community boon guides.

What can safely enter a planner

Record the four-second interval with its source and build. A per-minute item rate still needs the output quantity and any active modifiers. The planner deliberately does not turn this interval into a fabricated throughput result.

Check the right kind of altar

A hidden world interaction mentioned in a boon walkthrough and a production building are separate uses of the word altar. The production patch does not document a melody activation timer or an ending requirement.
