Maintenance
Consumed continuously to keep the facility running. Starve it and it degrades.
SuppliedAutomated arms tear through hull plates while recovery systems extract every gram of usable material. Efficient and relentless.
StarvedHalf the arms are locked in error states. Material recovery runs at a fraction of capacity, wasting good salvage.
