All the StW traps

Hi, sorry for the many posts. It's just a phase. At some point, I'll get sick of this game and the company, and move on lol. So this is definitely the same bug as the one where you're not getting back all the materials of your unused traps.

Edit: Credit to these three posts too.

But the reason why this is particularly bad is, it now makes building and trapping your storm shields for SSDs and Endurance, much more expensive.

Because of how its rule works, a trap that requires 1 quartz or 1 battery to craft, ya ain't getting any quartz or battery back if you recycle it. But even if you craft a stack of them, costing 200 quartz or 200 batteries total, ya still ain't getting all 200 quartz/batteries back. Except now, these materials are just strewn on the ground, mocking you for still wanting to play the game.

Endurance involves a lot of tweaking, a lot of trial and error, a lot of replacing traps with differently perked ones. Imagine losing 1 quartz every time you replace a sound wall with another that lasts longer or reloads faster.

Hi u/RuleOfThum and thread! The team are aware that you are not receiving the correct amount of materials returned when recycling traps and have a fix that will be released in a future update.
