Item values and uses: compare the next purchase

Use the reference as a starting point

These selected values come from October 29 community release references, superseded by official water hotfixes where shown. This is a buying reference, not a copied complete competitor catalog. Inspect the actual item before committing.

Selected base values

Buy the missing capability

Identify the job you cannot perform before purchasing equipment. Price the whole working set: machine, power, containers, feedstock and compatible modules. An inexpensive module that does not fit solves nothing. Begin with the smallest complete set that removes the bottleneck you observed.

Why the quote differs

Community references identify difficulty markup, events, condition and heat as separate influences. Counterfeits can be worth far less than the goods they imitate. A blank contraband flag in a catalog does not certify that your copy is unstolen or legal. Conflicting cigarette valuations remain unresolved; do not choose the higher number merely to justify a purchase.

Protect cash and space

Inspect grid dimensions and room before buying a large machine or lot. A useful part becomes dead stock without a compatible route or buyer. Record paid price and actual sale in the planner instead of treating base value as a promised return. These reference values are not our gameplay measurements.

What this lookup establishes

The 70 named records were checked against publicly readable source tables on November 1, 2026. Forty-six names match a separate community catalog; twenty-four retain single-reference status. The armed explosive has conflicting 0 and 250 values and is deliberately unresolved. A missing contraband mark never certifies legality. These are name/value lookup facts, not a current-save appraisal, full footprint catalog, supplier guarantee or complete game database. Each row links its evidence.

Historical commissary token snapshot

Use the correct currency and panel

The independent Wiki reads those figures from a pre-launch Steam screenshot. Tokens are not Credits; the stock column is one captured moment, not a promised restock count. The same panel has lottery and valid Food Stamp redemption controls. Redeem an eligible ticket there instead of treating it as ordinary shop merchandise. Check the current payout and eligibility; the screenshot does not establish them.

Match the machine’s slots

The pictured Chem Finisher separates module, input container, output and recipe controls. The Evaporator separates battery, module, container and Distillate collection. The Heating Plate has its own module and Off/Low/High control; a displayed target is not the current mixture temperature. The Cryptographic Desequencer has separate power, chip, input and output slots. Follow the printed interface labels before diagnosing a missing item as a bug.
