Revision: Med Lift vat segregation
As of right now, vatteries are generally all purpose. The same vat that grows lumen lamps one day might be drained and re-seeded with a mix for weapons crystals the next. This is not much of an issue most of the time. Vat fluid is cheap, and growing goods for the civilian sector in the off time is a way for vatters to make some extra cash. This does pose a problem when you run into expensive fluid mixtures like that of the new Med lift however. Instead of contracting out to guilds, the crown will acquire an exclusive agreement with a few specific vatters for such productions. This means that they will be insured enough production to keep them in business since they receive every contract from the crown, and also that the cost is significantly reduced for us as we don't have to remix the solutions at every growing period. This will primarily see the reduction of costs for expensive mineral binders, but also a small increase in savings for general crystal solutions as well.
