[*]Campfires turn to ashes when abandoned—no smoke, no fire.
[*]Added Required Camping Skill to camp attributes.
[/list]
Crafting & Terminal Updates
[list]
[*]Camps now craftable with a generic tool (no structure tool needed).
[*]Assembly/experimentation based on “camp” skill mod.
[*]Adjusted camp resources to Scout standards.

[*]Added “Extraction Rate” to status if using a survey module.
[*]Camp owners can send waypoints to group members via the terminal.
[/list]
New Camp Types & Modules
[list]
[*]Added Multiperson Camp (1 module, fits between Basic and Improved).
[*]New Survey Module boosts hand sampling rates (2–5% per module, caps at 20%).
