Summary
The Structure Matrix is one of the five basic source codes that keeps the CentreBrain simulating. It is needed for mid-tech research. Because the structure matrix recipe requires titanium, and titanium does not spawn on the starter planet, it is the first major product that requires the player to visit a different world. Automating the production of structure matrices is a big hurdle in the player's progression, necessitating the establishment of a complex production line to make organic crystals.
The interstellar logistics tech requires structure matrices to unlock; but is itself necessary to automate the production of structure matrices. Thankfully, the research requires only a very small amount of structure matrices, and can thus be pretty easily researched manually.

Player Tips & Tricks
- One smelter making Diamonds using Energetic Graphite is enough for four Matrix Labs making Structure Matrices.
- One Assembling Machine Mk.II making Titanium Crystals is enough for two Matrix Labs making Structure Matrices.
- One Assembling Machine Mk.I is enough for 1.5 (two are enough for 3).
- One Assembling Machine Mk.III is enough for 3.
