More Reasonable Glass Item Crafting Costs
If you are like me and you like things to make sense then I don't see why I have to spend so much more on glass pieces than their metal counterparts.

EG. if a metal wall requires 7 cementing paste and 25 metal ingots why then does the glass version requires the same plus 25 crystal. It should cost extra crystal yes, but not the same metal quantity since we have now replaced the entire interior with glass.

In short using a simple formula the glass pieces now require 80% of the metal equivalent in crystal and 20% in metal as most of the parts are glass interiors with metal borders.
Cementing paste amounts are nearly the same as the original metal, I put it at 25% of the sum of the metal and crystal quantities.
What was not changed were the two foundations, this is due to the fact that they can vary a lot depending on model.

Granted some of the items you can change borders to make it all glass but hey, we have to work within reasonable limits here.

So go forth and enjoy building in glass at reasonable costs, no longer do you need to be penalized because you want a semi-transparent base ^_^
