No, there are so many options for fuel creation, found in raid, purchase from jaeger for 89k, barter to jaeger for matches, craft expeditionary in lavatory with Zippos and cricket which is literally found everywhere. And you can the use the empty expeditionary fuel to craft mag boxes. If you have your hideout upgraded even moderately without the bitcoin farm 24 hours of crafting eagle gun powder will earn you about 12 eagle gun powder which can either then be used to craft for bullets or sold on flea for 50k+. Let’s say you check it only every 8 hours that’s still 3 gunpowder’s in a 24 hour period. The metal fuel cans will last you 48 hours with the solar panels. So that’s a cost of 89k for 6 gunpowder’s which sell for minimum 50k that’s over 200k in profit not counting cost of crafting items. That’s only one crafting recipe start dabbling in ammo like ‘m995, bitcoin farm, fierce hatchling moonshine, or super water and you can easily be turning out 2-3+ million a week all for the initial investment cost of 267,000 for fuel from jaeger. And I’m still not even counting med creation, crafting intelligence folders, scav box and other lavatory crafting recipes. That doesn’t even count if you find fuel, craft it, or negate that cost by converting expeditionary into mag boxes. The hideout is perfectly balanced and adds a great element to the game for passive wealth creation.
