The Crust Facts Ledger
Status: partial. Sources last read on 2026-09-11.
This page is the audit trail for every figure used on the The Crust Database. Each row below records a single fact, its source URL, and the day the source was read. The status field records how the fact was verified:
- CONFIRMED: read from an official domain (Steam store, Steam community announcements, or the developer blog).
- WIKI_CONSENSUS: read from the community wiki on wiki.gg, cross-checked with at least one other wiki page where possible.
- ATTRIBUTED: read from a third-party source that the page carrying the figure explicitly names.
When a number is not documented in any of those sources, the page either says so or omits the claim. The unconfirmed list and the gaps list at the bottom of this page record what is currently not sourced.

Not Currently Sourced (Unconfirmed Mechanics)
- The in-game length of a lunar night is not published by the developer and is not stated on the community wiki, so no hour figure is quoted anywhere on this site
- Total continuous power draw of a developed base is not published, so no MW figure for a base load is quoted
- Fuel consumption rate of the Fusion Reactor and the runtime of a single Energy Cell are not documented
- The community wiki flags that Multi-Regolith Refinery Mk.2 output may be bugged, so doubled-output rates are not presented as fact
- A complete list of boss encounters and the exact number of campaign missions are not published
- The wiki power table omits the Fusion Reactor and Large Battery, so a definitive list of power buildings cannot be assembled from it
Pages on this site either flag these gaps or omit the claim entirely. They do not estimate.
Known Gaps
- In-game lunar night duration unknown, so no night-reserve arithmetic is published
- Per-building power draw values are only documented for a handful of modules
- Multi-Regolith Refinery doubled-output column excluded as the wiki reports it may be bugged
- Campaign mission count and full boss roster unavailable
- No first-hand in-game measurement exists for any figure on this site, every number comes from an official store or announcement page or from the community wiki, and is labelled as such
