Game description
These are the possible game descriptions for Salvaged Scrap. One of the following is randomly chosen when an artifact is procedurally generated.
The sequence is taken from the game file.
Common
- Approximately XXX years old.
A reliable and common design, this technology was at the heart of Gek starship construction for years. Its ubiquity ensured a long life, as it was often recycled into countless other machines. It was particularly common as a repurposed Exocraft repair module. - Approximately XXX years old.
This useful life of this technology is long past. However, it contains rare and valuable substances, and would attract a high price as scrap. - Approximately XXX years old.
This peculiar technological component violates multiple galactic manufacturing protocols, and appears to have been constructed by a hobbyist. It is, however, still functional. - Approximately XXX years old.
An essential component across a wide variety of technologies, this ancient design has proven itself repeatedly across millennia. This particular example is slightly charred from weapon damage. - Approximately XXX years old.
This well-used component bears evidence of having been recycled between multiple starships. It has most likely seen several lifetimes' worth of space travel.
Uncommon
- Approximately XXXX years old.
A classic example of Korvax engineering, this technological component is solidly manufactured and has endured the passage of time well. - Approximately XXXX years old.
This valuable technology scrap is missing its paired component. While this part is still intact, it is completely non-operational. - Approximately XXXX years old.
Although unconventional in design, superior build quality and premium materials have preserved this technology's value. Impractical to use in modern technology, it would still be highly prized by a collector.
Rare
- Approximately XXXX years old.
Only an expert could determine the original purpose of this enigmatic technology. It vibrates gently, and certain species of creature seem to take great care to avoid it. - Approximately XXXX years old.
This extraordinarily sophisticated technology is a unique find. Even while disconnected and unpowered, it is oddly warm to the touch. - Approximately XXXX years old.
This technology bears the official hallmark of a centuries-old manufacturer, renowned for their exacting standards and product longevity. Despite its age, this example appears to be in almost perfect condition.
Modifier and value ranges
The table shows the modifier and value ranges. There is no correlation between the modifier and the value, both are randomly chosen within their ranges.
