Announcement of the changes planned for the 1.47.0 update

Hello, survivors! We want to tell you about some of the planned changes that will appear in the game with the 1.47.0 update.

Part-Production Changes:

1. Crafting time now depends on both part type and energy consumption. For example, a wheel will build noticeably faster than a cabin. Rarity still affects the timer, so the new ranges are:

- Rare: from 1 to 6 hours

- Epic: from 2 to 12 hours

- Legendary: from 4 to 24 hours

- Relic: from 12 to 48 hours

2. The amount of gold required to craft Epic, Legendary, and Relic parts has been reduced. The cut is large at Epic tier, moderate at Legendary, and small at Relic.

3. Recipes now need only one kind of component instead of two. Example: a Legendary cabin used to require 2 Epic cabins + 2 Epic modules; it now needs just 3 Epic cabins.

4. Recipes for Rare, Epic, and Legendary parts have been streamlined to use a single crafting resource. For weapons: Copper, Plastic, or Shells. For all other parts: Wires, Batteries, or Microchips

5. The total amount of resources required per craft has been increased slightly.
