Why remove the pulsar quartz crafting option ?

As the zeolite is becoming infinitely renewable via the new zeolite cave mining, the pulsar quartz is becoming the "rare" ore, the one you'll always be excited to find.
It will increase the value and rarity of the fusion energy generator and the teleporters, and give an incentive to explore more in the late game and give us the ability to add future different power sources.
As there is a lot of new containers in the world, your chances of finding pulsar quartz will increase. And the new pulsar cave will provide some more of it.
It's possible that we add the possibility to craft it on a future update / or add more ways to obtain it
As the game is still in Early Access, we want to continue trying new things, always with the goal to make the best experience possible!
