Gold route notes
Why Gold is worth keeping
Gold is easy to underestimate because it looks like a general resource, but it feeds several progression paths. It appears in electronics, ingot processing, acid conversion, and power-related recipes, so keeping a small reserve prevents repeat gathering trips.
Where Gold blocks progression
Gold becomes more important once you start building electronics, base power, and processor conversion chains. It often sits near Silver, Sulfur, Copper, and wiring recipes in the crafting plan, which makes it a good resource to check right after Silver.
What to check after finding Gold
Use the Used in list to decide the next material target. If Advanced Wiring Kit, Gold Ingot, or Strong Acid recipes are part of your current route, Gold should move from a nice-to-have mineral to a priority pickup.
