How loot chance works

The chance that a freshly spawned container, or a killed NPC, rolls at least one Metal Facemask. Container chances are before inventory limits: a full crate can discard rolled items, while bonus scrap drops beside it.

Recycle & repair

Recycling

Per item at full condition. Green’s 60% boost needs 4 heavy fuses at the Power Plant; red requires maximum power (18 fuses).

50% efficiency · 5s per cycle	60% efficiency · 5s per cycle 4.5s at maximum power	40% efficiency · 8s per cycle	75% efficiency · 4s per cycle

How returns work

Component fractions are random rolls; Scrap fractions carry over between cycles. Worn items return less.

Repair

Repair bench cost when fully worn.

Condition lost per repair: 20% of maximum
Blueprint needed: Yes

Repair cost rules

A half worn item costs half as much to repair. Rust stores no repair cost. The bench builds one from the crafting recipe: components are swapped for the first ingredient of their own recipe, then everything is charged at 20% and rounded up.
