Research Data
The Advanced Filter is a Tier 4 logistics building unlocked for 1,500 Gold. Official sources agree that it handles solids, liquids and gases with Allow/Block routing, but conflict on whether more than one resource can be selected at once.
The official Research page is marked work in progress. These facts reflect the captured August 20, 2026 version and may change with game updates.
Advanced Filter: Confirmed Function
The official Research page identifies multi-type filtering as the upgrade, while the official Beginner's Guide confirms that it still follows the normal filter's Allow/Block mode and single-resource rule. It is therefore an upgraded routing surface, not a machine that converts or consumes materials.
Setup and Production Role
Use it where a production line must route different states of matter. Select the resource and choose Allow or Block as with a normal Filter, then test the current build before designing around simultaneous selections because the Research page and Beginner's Guide disagree on that capability.
Limits and Verification
The captured sources do not publish filter speed, capacity, footprint, power use, a maximum number of selected materials or a comparison ratio against the basic Filter. Those values and a universal layout remain unverified and should be checked in the current game build.
