GK2 Building Cost Calculator

Graveyard Keeper 2 building cost calculator: sum construction materials for factory, graveyard, church, and morgue structures you plan to build.

Fan-made planning helpers using fixed in-game rules (sums, power caps, and published item costs). Not affiliated with the game publisher. Always verify materials and power on your save after patches.

How this building cost calculator works

Pick how many of each structure you intend to place, and the tool multiplies every ingredient in that structure’s recipe, then adds the results into one Complete count table. It is the same arithmetic you would do on paper when planning a district upgrade—no hidden modifiers, just stacked totals.

Use it when you are about to craft a batch of factory logistics (belts, chests, carousels), expand columbariums, or furnish church and morgue stations. If a line is missing from the list, add its materials manually for now; the dataset focuses on common early-to-mid progression buildings.

Pair this with the factory power calculator when you are placing belts and carousels in the same session, and read the factory setup guide for wiring order.

Tips for accurate totals

Count finished buildings, not blueprints in your inventory—recipes here assume you are crafting from scratch. If you already stockpiled planks or bronze gears, subtract those from the final column mentally.

Factory lines often need duplicate chests and belt segments; bump conveyor counts before you smelt extra iron. After a game patch, spot-check one recipe in-game if numbers feel off—fan tools follow published costs but patches can shift ingredients.
