The production method forming the lifeline of Riptide Rakers of Avarice, Closed Loop is reborn in a galaxy far, far away, making Salvaging a viable production input since 14 ABY.

Closed Loop Reborn is a Star Wars Interworlds sub-mod that restores Closed Loop production method for all major SWI faction equipment. For the uninitiated, in Closed Loop production method you only need Energy Cells, Durasteel Plates and Module PreFab to produce all compatible equipment and you can convert Scrap Metal to Durasteel and Module PreFab.

Make no mistake of expecting an OP psuedo-cheaty way of producing things however, since this production method has been rebalanced in order to not replace Universal production in effectiveness, but rather provide an alternative at a (steep enough) price. Since you essentially skip majority of materials and at least two conversion steps compared to Universal production, in addition to skipping the need of Rhydonium Cores for capital ships, costs are steep, perhaps even too steep, erring on the more expensive side when in doubt as well.

Production of L and XL size ships require %400 more Energy Cells, %20 less Durasteel Plates compared to Universal production and for each Rhydonium Core needed in Universal, 10 Module PreFabs are needed in Closed Loop. In addition they are produced %10 slower.

Equipment costs are balanced similarly, requiring %900 more Energy Cells, with Components requirement converted to same amount of Durasteel Plates and advanced goods converted to half of the amount of Module PreFab to produce. Most missiles and torpedoes only require Energy Cells and Durasteel Plates to produce.
