Added missing materials recipes and rebalance of material costs

[stubkan]

Summary

Balance "Added missing materials recipes and rebalance of material costs"

Fixes #54962
Fixes #52882

Purpose of change

There are items that have no use (synth fabric sheet and nomex sheets) that you can acquire from disassembly or loot and they sit uselessly in your cargo. They cannot be converted into anything at this stage.

Also kevlar is way overpriced, disassembly of broken vests that cost very little can net you parts that sell for hundreds of dollars of profit.

Material costs are a little mixed up, not really ranked in order properly.

Some simple recipes are taking obscene amounts of time to do. Creating patchwork sheets that take seconds in some recipes, take 270 minutes in others. Reduced the times for some, increased for others.

Also unrelated to materials but throwing in there anyway, a loop of rope that you can construct early game to hold large items up to 80kg only requires a short string, despite the description saying its a rope.

Describe the solution

Reduced obscene times for creating material sheets from 270min to 60min

Added recipe to convert unusable nomex and synth fabric sheets that you can get into actual usable nomex and synth fabric patches. You can repair clothing with these. You make a kevlar layered patch with 16 sheets. Nomex requires 8 sheets, synth fabric requires 4.

Adjusted kevlar spare parts prices so they arent priced exploitively.

Adjusted pricing of spare part materials to scale with other similar items.

Fixed loop of rope recipe using a short string to actually using a short rope.

Describe alternatives you've considered

a) both those sheets have recipes. But I understand it's probably hyperbole
b) you can cut the sheets into patches if I'm not mistaken.
c) as I type this I realize I'm probably being pedantic and making it more obvious you can get patches from sheets wouldn't be a bad thing.

I assume you are talking about nomex and synth fabric patches?

If recipes exist please point them out. I saw none ingame, none in materials recipe json, hitchhikers guide shows none.

I added these mainly because there is no upgrade/disassemble path to use these 2 items that you can easily get a lot of sheets of - and they are mostly unusable in the sheet state.

patches are for repairing clothes they don't need to have recipes they are used in. sheets as i understand them are factory produced rolls of fabric which are more suitable to making large pieces of clothing. You can drop them on the ground and cut them into patches. because patches are 50g and sheets are 3g.

that said, you might be looking at stable. stable does not have recipes that use synthetic sheets.
Synthetic fabric sheets have countless uses, even not counting redundancies. Nomex sheets have been used in flame resistant clothing for quite a while.

also as i noted in the issue i posted after reading this PR when i looked at HHG, patches of every kind were added to almost all cloth recipes with really bad usage calculations.

You cant cut up sheets into patches - it is the other way around - I know the description says sheets and you get bolts of sheets from the factory... but in this game sheets is the halfway point between a scrap and a patch. a sheet is much smaller than a patch. Like you said, a sheet is 3g so cutting that up into smaller pieces of 50g?

The issue isnt that theyre not used in any recipes - the issue is that there are no recipes for getting them. You NEED patches to repair clothes. All the other material types have a sheet to patch recipe, but these 2 don't.

you drop the full bolt of "sheet" on the ground and cut it up. same way to salvage any material from cutting. drop 100s of "sheets" on the ground and try cutting them. you have patches. It's in the game but I can see how a proper recipe might make it more clear/predictable.

I'm sorry, but I'm not following. The only direct sheet -> patch recipe i see is for neoprene. but I think i see the benefit of it.

I might do another PR to clean up the mess of scrap-sheet-patch and make it clearer for all materials then

Congrats. You managed to fix this thing before 2 people that said they will rework tailoring system did.
