Totally understand that and have done it before, But still doesn't solve the problem I mentioned originally though.
You start burning through your scrap supplies buying smokes instead of selling that for net worth and not using your sulfer up its counter productive. Your using stuff you can sell for net worth to make net worth lol.
One of the perks of being vip is you burn no wood so when you still have to go round hacking same amount of trees down just to make charcoal it totally defeats the object of that perk. It's made worse when you cant ever get wood from outpost when you need it and everyone starts selling it for stupid prices around the map or you spending hours farming again lol.
In my opinion wood should be worth nothing on the black market, you need 3 million wood just to make a few thousand net worth and people abuse it just to get rid of stone and deplete the stock as soon as it fills up.
