A camping-supply project
The Basic Camping Kit recipe illustrates how settlement preparation connects to an expedition. One kit uses 24 Textile, 12 Log, 6 Stone, 20 Mana Stone Powder at the Basic Workstation. Campsite Setup is the item’s research unlock. Check its prerequisites and research costs before treating the material list as the whole project.

WIKI SUGGESTIONBefore expanding, identify the next problem you want to solve: somewhere to sleep, dependable supplies, or equipment for a planned expedition. Use that goal to choose your next project.
Plan one improvement at a time
WIKI SUGGESTIONKeep a short list of missing supplies before entering a dungeon. On return, use it to decide what to improve first. This is a planning approach, not a verified optimal build order.
