    Critical Adjustment

    Most hideout craft guides overstate profitability by ignoring fuel allocation. Your spreadsheet should assign fuel cost per craft-hour or your ROI ranking will be distorted.

    Spreadsheet Formula (Simple and Accurate)

    Use this formula for every craft row:

    Profit/Hour = (Net Profit / Craft Duration Minutes) * 60

    ROI% = (Net Profit / Input Cost) * 100

    Rank by Profit/Hour for throughput, and by ROI% for bankroll efficiency.

    Fuel Allocation Rules

    Allocate fuel by active station runtime, not by finished output count.

    Use a rolling 24h fuel average to smooth out day-to-day volatility.

    Recalculate after major wipe-phase price shifts.

    Queue Optimization Rules

    Long crafts before offline windows; short crafts during active sessions.

    Prioritize high RUB/h when fuel is scarce, high ROI when capital is limited.

    Batch buy materials during low-volatility windows.

    Best Hideout Crafts: Selection Criteria

    • Liquidity: can you exit quickly at expected spread?

    • Input volatility: do ingredient spikes erase edge?

    • Duration risk: does long cycle increase mark-to-market risk?

    • Opportunity cost: is station time better used by another craft?

    This is why your tracker should be updated regularly, not treated as a static list.

    Bottom Line

    The best hideout crafts are dynamic. If you track net output with fuel-adjusted RUB/hour and ROI together, you will consistently outperform static craft lists.
