2. During the installation of a base module, the interface displays tools and resources required for building;

[h3]● WORKBENCH AND STEAM INVENTORY ●[/h3]
We have added a workbench, a new base module and a feature that will allow you to apply camouflage on clothes. The functionality will be expanded in the future. Steam Inventory integration is automatic.
