Build: 1.8.8 3864 Mode: Survival / Creative Mode: Single Player / Multiplayer Reproducibility: Always Severity: Minor Type: Salvaging Summary: Sometimes salvaging a block or device will return a higher number of a material component than was used to construct it. Possible exploit, though highly RNG-based. Description: I have seen cases during gameplay where salvaging a component that uses a few rare materials will sometimes return more of some materials than used to build it. For example, it is possible to salvage a T4 CV extender and get back more bridges and/or matrixes than were used to construct it. Steps to Reproduce: Place a device that has multiple ingredients Salvage the device using a T2 Multitool (also works with T1, but is rarer) Examine the count of materials salvaged and see how that compares to the device's recipe. Repeat steps until you encounter a case where you get back more of an ingredient than the recipe required. This may take several tries due to RNG. Screenshots: CV T4 CPU Extender recipe. Note that it takes 1 matrix and 6 power coils. One example of salvaging a T4 extender using a T2 multitool. I received 2 matrixes and 7 power coils. Another example salvaging with a T1 multitool. In this case I received 3 matrixes. Testing salvaging hardened steel blocks with a T2 multitool, once I received 11 titanium plates (recipe is 10 ti plates + 10 steel plates).
