Quick answers
Frequently asked questions
Why can a safe-zone recycler return less?
The calculator applies the selected recycler efficiency to eligible crafting ingredients and rounds each output down.
Can several item stacks be combined?
Yes. Add each stack and the calculator merges matching outputs into one haul list.
