Wooden Cross
Fun and decoration,Deployable
A hammer mends the Wooden Cross in two swings, and it has 100 health once placed.
A repair bench charges 20% of the item’s recipe to fix a broken item, less when it is only worn.
Each swing charges the share of the cost for 50 health, rounded up to whole resources, and restores as much health as it paid for, which can be more than 50. Nothing can be repaired for 30 seconds after it takes damage.
Figures are for one item in perfect condition. Each recycler’s name opens its full table at this item.
