Compare value before committing materials
According to update 0.4.0.84, crafting, dismantling and blueprint-restoration economics now use an item's market price rather than its quantity for Chronotraces and Credits. The material composition of recovered Chronotraces was also adjusted.
Practical use
Inspect the live confirmation values before accepting a craft or dismantle action. Keep a small reserve of flexible materials so a balance change does not leave you unable to rebuild a basic kit.
