Bonfire
The central computational node of the raft. The Bonfire is not just a light source - it is the player's technological skill tree, dictating crafting multipliers and unlocking blueprints as it is upgraded through five distinct levels. Bonfire fuel economy is the defining survival friction of the game. Base depletion rate is dynamically modified by weather (Rain and Blizzard amplify depletion). If the Bonfire reaches zero fuel, health regeneration halts, the map becomes inaccessible, and high-threat entities spawn at 100% probability. Higher-tier Bonfires (Level 4+) include stone foundations that resist weather penalties. Reaches Level 5 only with the full Titanium + Advanced Fuel composite - the absolute apex of the technological tree that primes the Day 100 extraction trigger.
