A negative figure means this makes you worse off, not better. Heavy metal gear is warmer to carry and colder to stand around in.

Repair

At a repair bench, fully worn: 8 Cloth, 2 Leather, 1 High Quality Metal. A half worn one costs half as much.

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.

A range means the last unit is a coin flip rather than a guarantee: half the recipe rarely divides evenly, and the recycler rolls for the remainder.

Tech tree

On the workbench 2 tree, 4 unlocks in, reachable after Road Sign Gloves.

No scrap price on the tree itself: every node ships with its cost overridden to -1 and the fallback is not recoverable from the files. The research table price above is a different number and that one is derivable.
