Plastic is needed!

[Señor Vanguard]

Is there a sertain loot spawn for it? I know that i should build a treefarm etc but i just can't get enough lol I'm also curious if there's an option to 'cheat' it with the console
(I don't know how to activate it tho)

Don't know anything about cheating, but I'm always short of plastic and rubber too.
I get them by looting buildings, farming tree and I don't build windmills as they are too expensive.

I am curious what you are doing with your plastic to have a shortage? What day are you on? What difficulty? etc...

firstly, you can use a “red” ax with a bonus for obtaining resin when cutting down trees.
BUT it is much easier (and not everyone understands this) to buy various components in a store, for example a motor or a battery, and simply disassemble them, you will find that after disassembling you will get enough plastic and rubber, in fact, with such a purchase, 1 plastic (or rubber) will cost less than 1 coins.

now you just have to watch a video about creating metal farms / mining farms that are only needed for farming coins. (on average difficulty, a farm of 100 metal mining machines, located in the RIGHT place, gives 300-400 coins per 1 mining cycle...)

I built a farm for 100 mining machines by day 20....
just build a farm for 10-20 mining machines at the beginning of the game, and then constantly increase the number of machines.

Well , the guy talks about plastic / rubber , except first part your answer is about mining machines , awesome answer .
My answer is ...the crafting in this game is way to expensive , start game in custom and set loot for x2. Easy. To buy like Alfafiles said is ludicrous . You need like 9k Won to research everything in last tab , and if you want to buy some books , weel you need at least 11k wons , and if you want to upgrade 2 weapons at Tier 5 you need around 2k for weapon so another 4k . So yea ...buying parts for mats wont work , but ...thats my opinion. Ofc you can set up loot on x3 and respawn natural resources and just farm gold. Then yes , you can buy everything ...but this is how the game supposed to be played ?

you can use the sandbox and cheat craft things that require plastic, then recycle them back into parts. or you could just use the sandbox to cheat whatever you need the plastic for.

for instructions on how to activate the sandbox see the sandbox section in my guide

Of course now we can buy tape and disassemble it, it's much easier.
But previously, the 10 first days in Legend were a bit of a pain, as plastic or rubber is used to upgrade equipment.

Wow, my friends and I played on Challenge difficulty and resources were/are not an issue.

Below is my part of my first day on Challenge difficulty solo. I got bored.

Crafting is not expensive at all. It mostly feels balanced.
