Unlock condition and board standing
Fully Automated sits at row 17 of 20 on the Steam board (API key ACH_FULLY_AUTOMATED) with the visible description Let the machines handle the heavy lifting and a 49.1% global unlock rate. It is the late-game capstone of the automation track inside the bunker.
Just under half of all players build out the full mechanical pipeline across the yard and machine bay to earn Fully Automated alongside The Quota (48.4%).
Shift context and related milestones
On the board, Fully Automated links back to Industrial Revolution (62.1%, Let the machines do the peeling, ACH_FIRST_AUTOMATION). Moving from first automation to full automation spans the mid- and late-shift rows of the upgrade ledger: Auto Peel Machine (280), Sack Gantry (280), Claw Crane (2,100), Sack Cableway (1,250), and Overclock (1,400).
Once those systems are running together, outdoor crane harvesting, overhead cableway sack delivery, indoor gantry transfer, and overclocked drum peeling operate as a continuous loop.
Workstation notes and version 1.0.2 details
Hotfix 1.0.2 smoothed out every stage of the automated loop: crane autopilot triggers pile recounts every 2.5 minutes, sacks pour into the center of hoppers without vanishing when a machine is full, and the top two water channel speed tiers run faster without late-game slowdowns.
Moreover, potatoes sitting inside machine hoppers persist across save and load cycles in version 1.0.2, keeping your automated line primed between sessions.
