# material science
material science is a foundationary project designed to enchance
exploration loot, fear and serivice comoditiy value, to economica in general.

**this project is designed to work as a foundation to economica,fear and service and exploration on its own its not very usefull**

all materials,items,equipment,gear,organs ect. basically all items now have a quality value.
on the range from -3 to 5 (0 included) for a grand total of 9
* on the topic of stack materials. the quality is an array list that contains all the qualities and the number of mats in this stack that have them
(example - a 1stack of exelent iron has 1 array index of {1,2})
15 stack of gold with 6poor and 9legendary {{6,-2},{9,4}}
one may pull from the stack with shiftclick to choose what quality and quantity they desire to pull

some items now may posess properties. basically enchansments that make the item more unique. some are positive some are negative. some have ups and downs, some are usefull in combat,some make the item do its primary job better, some make the item better at doing something else, some make the item have exotic properties, some are just defects.
* an item's quality is not the end all be all. a poor item with several fancy properties would still have some apeal over a legendary item with defects. although its up to prefrence

## purpose
this project is designed as a base for sevearal other projects with its main purpose to enchance the variety, uniqueness and versitlity of items for the purposes of
* making exploration loot more exiting for the explo project
* upping service game by allowing them to work hard and make high quality goods for fear and service
* adding uniquness and exotic side to some items to enchance trading interactions for economica
* the cargo quality market

## qualities
-3 to +5
awfull,poor,subpar,normal,good,excellent,masterwork,**legendary,ascendant**
legendary and ascendant (4,5) are special. as they are exeptionally rare extremely hard to make.
## use and rules of quality
* items that spawn in nonmaint areas of the station have a 90% chance to be normal with 5% chance to have a property. maint and offstation loot is far more varied
* quality slightly enhances or degrades all properties of an item, from its health to all stats workspeed,damage,armor,max charges,dmg,sell value
specifically
* consumables have more charges
* tools are mainly affected by workspeed, work sucsess chance and slightly damage
* laser weapons affect max ammocharge,speed,accuracy and sligtly damage
* dedicated melee weapons affect slightly damage slightly armor penetration slightly blocking arc(if any)
* equipment enchances the armor values but an item with 0 armor in a given damage type will never rise. unless an enhancement adds one, also insulations if any apply (cold,heat,rads,ect)
* food and drinks (tied to fear and service) improve mood better
* containers and bags slightly enchanse holding size
* organs slightly affect their work effitiency (may the organtrade begin)
* limbs other than health modification. there is no diffrence
* materials and crafting components. general allstats boost for the few mats that have stats to modify (like base drinks and food ingredients). but their quality is mainly used to determine the quality of items crafted from them
* component quality further determines the component's preformance on top of its level (exelent t2 is better than terrible t3)
* proto&autolathe printed items are 90% normal +1 or -1 with 10% of enchantments. this may be modified by quality of components in machine with lower quality making more -1 and maybe even -2 and high quality making more +1 and maybe even +2. it also modifies odds of enchantments and the types.
* legendary and acendant tier items can only be handcrafted or found.
* crafted item's quality is determined by the avarage of the quality of all components
## properties
* all items have a chance to spawn with properties onstation gear having only 5%, offstation its offstation in maint its 15% offstation its 30%.
* when a spawned item rolls a property it rolls again till it fails or gets the max amount of properties allowing for items to spawn with more than 1 property.
items max property slots are determined by its quality
* -3 ~ 1
* -2,-1 ~ 2
* 0 ~ 3
* 1,2 ~ 4
* 3,4 ~ 5
* when crafting an item there's a 15% chance for a property slot to be filled. item quality affects the odds of the property to be positive or negative. starting at 50% it goes up or down by 5% per quality tier
* positive properties have their own tiers based on quality. better properties would require higher quality item to be able to spawn/be applied onto
* **thinkering station** can be located in engineering and sci. it serves the purpose of attempting to improve the quality,add/remove properties and fix the damage of items
* *note the material needed to operate on items depend on what the item is made of/itemtype.*
* all actions (exept repair) have a chance to fail. failure odds growing exponentually with higher quality. research disks/material science research disks may be inserted and the points used up to boost the odds.
* starting with 1 point for 1% for -3 each tier costs twice as many points for 1% of boosted odds
* material science disk - sold at cargo. basically research points for sale. exept you may ONLY use them for material science.
* operating the table - it can hold 1 item. on whom we work. the table is used to perform the following actions
* repairing a damaged item at light material cost
* upgrading the item's quality.
* extracting a property from the item into a property blueprint (destroying the item in the processs). property blueprints may also be found in ruins (and sold from the economica exotic trader)
* applying a property blueprint onto an item (requires the item to be of suffitent quality)
* removing a property from an item
there is a failure chance for all tasks exept repair.
* modifying properties on low tier items is easier and more difficult on high tier items. rarer properties are harder to add or remove
* modifying the quality of an item is always difficult
* repairing items is always easy
* some properties demand specific materials like diamonds,titanium and maybe exotic stuffs
* item durability is now a stat that goes down as the item is used. this item degredation is a slow process and on an avarage shift the item wouldnt break. however items now have intended and unintended functions. when using an item for an intended function the durability will lower by tiny ammount. using unintended functions will lower the durability faster. intended and unintended stats may be changed by properties.
some examples include
(tools, intended - use as tool, unintended - bash the clown with it)
(laser gun - intended - shoot with it, unintended - bash with it)
(PKA - intended shoot with it (and bash if a knife is installed), unintended - bash (if no knife is installed))
(radsuit - intended - radiation , unintended - burning,taking damage)
* as durability falls at 20% tresholds the item has an increasing chance to gain a negative or mixed property tied to it,
* when item durability drops bellow 50% it will begin to build up a negative stat that lowers all preformance it growps proportional to the durability lost up its to 75% max.
* the ascendant tier of properties has a chance to appear on legendary and acendant items. theese are extraordinarilly exotic modifications. these properties DO NOT SPAWN RANDOMLY on items of this quality crafted. they can only be found in ruins or exotic traders as items or blueprints

## quality's relation to structures, destruction, ruin and scrap
structures do not have qualities. nor do they track what quality material made them

when material is used to craft structures the quality of the material affects the cost in construction. higher tiers of material count for double the previous tier while lower tiers count as half. when making something with material of higher quality. the material isnt consumed but you are given a "change" of lower tier materials
(ok lets do some math here. lets take the value of a single normal tier item in context of other qualities)
a table of proportional total value when we intilaize q0 = 1 mat and we want to get a table where q-3 = 1
q-3 > 8 > 1
q-2 > 4 > 2
q-1 > 2 > 4
q0 > 1 > 8
q1 > 0.5 > 16
q2 > 0.25 > 32
q3 > 0.125 > 64
q4 > 0.0625 > 128
q5 > 0.03125 > 256
1q0 is valued at 8 total value
a iron wall costs 2*8+4*8=48 (6q0) iron sheets.
thusly a SINGLE 1q5 iron sheet can make...
256-48 > - 208 - > - 160 - > - 112 - > - 64 - > 16 (5 walls) before leaving you with (1q1)
_ _ _ _ _ _ 128(1q4)-128(1q4)-64(1q3)- 64(1q3)
_ _ _ _ _ _ 64(1q3) - 32(1q2) -32(1q2)
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16(1q1)

moving on
**SCRAP**
when trying to refine materials, breaking down trash via the reclamation or "dissasembling" structures in means other than the predefined proper way to dissasemble a structure aka (blowing it the hell up or breaking it)
you get **scrap**
there is 1 scrap type for every material. it acts just like broken glass (as broken glass is 1 type of scrap) you can smelt it back into the material reclaiming it
* breaking machines gives you scrap of quality ranging form q0 to q-2 quality of value equal to the materials used to build it with normal being the most common.
* when an item is made of composite materials (plasma glass ect) drop scrap of appropriate base composites
* **ruined scrap** - special scrap that makes sure your day cant be nice forever. in all processes that make scrap there's always a 10~20% chance that your scrap is turned into ruined scrap instead... the station and the crew are not equipped to reclaim something this badly ruined. you may however sell it from cargo for *some profit* to entities that might. (this means that destruction is no longer a 0 sum game and overall breaking things the improper way would overitme give you less and less)
* iron scrap - works just like glass shards. including crafting recipies (99% metal shivs and spears)
* glass shard - ingame
* copper scrap - identical to iron and glass
* plasma shards - fine shattered plasma. (open to ideas what you can do with fine sharp plasma sand) (i wouldnt use a wielder on that)
* silver scrap - about as usefull as normal silver
* gold scrap - hefty. good throwing damage
* uranium chunks - the forbiden snack (open to ideas what one may do with tiny scraps of uranium) (cannot be reclaimed with wielder inhand)
* diamond dust - how did you even break that (cannot be reclaimed with wielder inhand)
* bluespace dust - acts like normal telecrystals exept it has a max range of 1 tile when it comes to teleporting others when thrown (cuz its dust) (cannot be reclaimed with wielder inhand)

## cargo and the material refining industry
the oresilo and protolathes only hold normal quality materials. if you want anything else you must go visit cargo in person (feature)
* matvault. a new storage machine holds all non normal quality materials. it is linked with only the material refinery found near it.

a new machine at cargo. the **material refinery** (not to be confused with ore refinery)
inputs refined materials materials and converts them into materials of higher quality at a %chance of sucsess or failure
* it is operated manually. materials are inserted and a desired output quality is defined. then the process initiates
* in the process. each second a refinment dice is rolled. based on weighted odds one of the following actions occur. going from lowest to highest quality stacks until the desired stack is achieved/all materials are wasted/the process is halted
* the odds may be skewed by setting a set volume of research/matsci points to be consumed per process akin to the **enchantment station** from a total pool gained by inserting disks
* upgrades the value of 1 material unit at a 1>1 ratio
* upgrades the value of 1 material unit at a 2>1 ratio
* fails to refine but spares the material
* fails to refine and ruins 1 material turning it into scrap that's discarded (has a chance to turn it into ruined scrap)
## properties table

* shady suppliers - all items/machines/structures/entities on station maint included will have a -1 to their initial generation

# SPECIFICS - endgame defining
- stack items - a stack item contains a 1D array consisting of 9 integers
they represent the 9 item qualities
atrocious, awfull, poor, normal, good, excellent, masterwork, legendary, ascendant.
the integer represents the number of items of that quality
- interacting stack items - left click a stack item to pull 1 from the higest quality
alt click to open a menu containing a list of all non 0 qualities and the quantity in said quality... click on that to select how many you wish to pull and then you pull that many
- spawning qualities -
* station -
* -2 5%, -1 25%, 0 55%, +1 10%, +2 5%
* maint -
* -3 5%, -2 20%, -1 20%, 0 30%, +1 10%, +2 10%, +3 5%
* ruin
* -2 10%, -1 10%, 0 49%, +1 15.25%, +2 10.25%, +3 5.25%, +4 0.25%
- properties
* higher qualities have more atribute slots...
* lower qualties have easier atribute removal or addition
(a awfull quality item can relatively easily modify its properties)
* higher qualities have exponentially harder removal and addition
(a lengendary item with a negative quirk will be exeptionally hard to remove)

* properties application
* qualities have property slots
* atrocious - 1, awfull - 2, poor - 2, normal - 3, good - 3, excellent - 4, masterwork - 5, legendary - 6, ascendant - 7.

* blueprints
advanced packages rarely found in ruins or bought off exotic vendors. used to greatly improve the odds of improving your items... theese kits cannot exist in a quality bellow normal
* **enhancement print** - improves overal item quality. the print's quality must be equal or higher to be able to do the job. if its higer it also has a chance to add positive properties or enchance it by multple levels... depends how big the difffrence of qualities is
* **property print** - contains a singular property. higher tier properties can only exist on higher tier kits. with ascendant only existiong on legendary or ascendant tier prints. an item must be the same or higher quality to the kit to use it. thusly one cannot apply a high tier property on a low tier item with theese prints (altough it is possible without a kit)
* the quality of the print determines how much of a boost in odds the kit provides... unlike enhancement prints property prints can have any quality.
* extracting property prints - a property print may be extracted from an item that has that property... the item WILL be destroyed in the process. the quality of the property print is determined by the quality of the item.
* finding or extracting ascendant prints is the only way to aquire ascendant properties on a speific item of your choosing
