Exploit using BluePrint Station
This mod has an exploit using blueprint station. I do like this mod, but was wondering it there is a way around the exploit. Here is the exploit.

First make sure you have max crafting stat. Then create a normal item. Upgrade the item to ramshackle. Then with max crafting, create a new item. Item should be boosted due to max crafting. Then take boosted item and create new blueprint. Rinse and repeat until you have a 755.3 % Ramshackle item.

Is there a way to prevent this exploit?

I can HIDE blueprint station which is a way around this exploit.

Have you compared the costs to a item that you upgraded from primitive to ascendent, putting aguments to the limit into the item and then maxing it out at the end by making a blueprint, crafting it one time with a ~15% bonus and salvaging it again for a blueprint?
We made ourselves a lot of max stats blueprints this way wich cost a 10th of their looted counterparts.

I thought about making a more effordable loot table with this, if there is a way to extract the data and replace the loot drops. Then there would be no more need for silly harvest multipliers and moving 50k ingots around.

The easiest way would be to set a flat value for the crafting cost increase, but i have am confused about the cost calculation. Maybe someone can help me, the information is on the ark wiki.
