See how every good is made in Manor Lords
Manor Lords has a deep production economy: logs become firewood, iron ore and firewood become iron slabs, flour and firewood become bread. This production chain visualizer draws the whole web as one interactive graph so you can see, at a glance, what feeds what — and plan which buildings you need before you commit a region to a supply line.
How to read the graph
Buildings are amber, goods are grey, and the graph flows left to right from raw materials to finished products. An arrow pointing into a building is an input it consumes; an arrow out is what it produces. Click any node to highlight just its direct connections and dim the rest — handy for tracing a single good’s supply chain in a busy graph.
A worked example: how bread is made
Bread is the payoff of a four-step chain. Your fields produce wheat sheaves; a Barn threshes sheaves into grain; a Windmill grinds grain into flour; and a Communal Oven bakes flour — together with firewood — into bread. Rye runs the same path in parallel. Click Wheat Bread in the visualizer and the graph highlights every step that feeds it, so you can see exactly which buildings a working bakery supply line needs.
Iron, tools and the firewood bottleneck
Metal goods stack three steps deep: a Deep Mine or Mining Pit yields iron ore, a Bloomery smelts ore and firewood into iron slabs, and a Smithy forges slabs and firewood into tools. Notice how often firewood appears: the oven, bloomery, smithy, charcoal kiln, clay furnace, lime kiln and malthouse all burn it. A single Woodcutter’s Lodge turning logs into firewood can quietly gate your food, tools and building materials at once — which is why firewood is worth planning before it becomes a shortage.
Where the data comes from
Recipes are extracted from the Manor Lords game files (v0.8.048) by the community. The input-to-output ratios come straight from the data; the absolute amounts are raw game values whose exact time period isn’t independently confirmed, so treat throughput figures as guidance rather than gospel.
Frequently asked questions
What does the Manor Lords production chain visualizer show?
It maps every production building and the goods it consumes and produces as one interactive graph, laid out from raw materials on the left to finished goods on the right. Click any building or good to trace what it connects to.
Where does the recipe data come from?
Inputs, outputs and amounts are extracted from the Manor Lords game files (v0.8.048) by the community. The input-to-output ratios are taken directly from the data; the absolute production amounts are raw game values whose time period is not independently verified.
How do I read the graph?
Amber nodes are buildings (production steps); grey nodes are goods. An arrow into a building is an input it consumes; an arrow out is something it produces. For example, the Bloomery consumes iron ore and firewood and produces iron slabs.
How is bread made in Manor Lords?
Bread is the end of a four-step chain: your fields produce wheat sheaves, a Barn threshes sheaves into grain, a Windmill grinds grain into flour, and a Communal Oven bakes flour — together with firewood — into bread. Rye follows the same path. Click Wheat Bread in the visualizer to highlight the whole chain.
How do I make tools in Manor Lords?
Tools come from iron. A Deep Mine or Mining Pit produces iron ore, a Bloomery smelts ore and firewood into iron slabs, and a Smithy forges slabs and firewood into tools. Click Tools in the graph to trace that supply line back to the mine.
Why do so many Manor Lords buildings need firewood?
Firewood is the game's universal fuel: the Communal Oven, Bloomery, Smithy, Charcoal Kiln, Clay Furnace, Lime Kiln and Malthouse all consume it, and a Woodcutter's Lodge turns logs into firewood. Because it feeds so many chains, a single firewood shortage can stall bread, tools and building materials at the same time.
Is this an official Manor Lords tool?
No — it is a free, fan-made reference built on community-extracted data. It is not affiliated with Slavic Magic or Hooded Horse.
