I've been playing RF for a while now, meandering around the galaxy looking for a planet to call my own and set down roots. I finally found one with some challenging POI's and a good Zirax presence to keep me on my toes (not ready for Legacy yet). I started pumping materials into the factory to make my favourite base, Sanctum by JRandall and imagine my surprise when I really looked at the ingredients. The amount of crushed stone needed is absolutely staggering compared to Vanilla. The amount of other materials is nothing to sneeze at either as you can see from the screenshots below. I was just curious if this is the intention of RF to slow down progression? Or is it just a case of RF doesn't translate Vanilla blueprints very well? Either way, I sure won't be building that one as quickly as I usually can.
I dont know it 100%, but it feel like, that i get a fewer amount off all materials. And all BP ´s have a 2,5 Factor on needed Materials. I like Reforged Eden, but i dont want farm ressources more than Building, Exploring or POI Raiding. In the later Game, if i have Autominer, it is no Problem. But for the early Game i waste to many time i think, to collect ressources.
