Torpedo
A torpedo for use in a submarine. Fires ahead in a straight line.
The Torpedo is ammunition in Rust. You craft it at a Level 2 Workbench, and its blueprint costs 40 scrap to research.
About the Torpedo
One craft makes 5, so each costs 0.2 × Metal Pipe and 6 × Gun Powder. A full stack of 100 takes 20 crafts and 100 seconds: 20 × Metal Pipe and 600 × Gun Powder. Recycling it in a green recycler returns 10% of its crafting cost. Recycling it returns the Metal Pipe only by chance, 10% of the time.
On the tech tree it sits behind 22 other unlocks: High Velocity Rocket, Rocket Launcher, Holosight, Semi-Automatic Rifle, Propane Explosive Bomb, Smoke Grenade and 16 more. Only one vendor sells it: the Fishing Village Boat Vendor for 75 scrap.
