# Game Mechanic

  In RanchersLand, players stake their NFT assets to produce rewards, consume stamina, and progress through various gameplay systems. The core game mechanics are described below:

***

### 🔗 NFT Staking System

   Players can stake **Tools**, **Workers**, and **Packs** to passively generate rewards. Each staked NFT produces rewards at regular intervals.

***

### ⚡ Stamina Consumption

   All production actions require Stamina (energy). Stamina can be replenished using FARM tokens.
\
With the introduction of seasonal gameplay, the amount of FARM needed to restore Stamina now changes based on the current season, encouraging players to plan recovery and usage more strategically.
\
If Stamina is depleted, the player cannot perform any production-related actions.

***

### 🎁 Claim System

   In RanchersLand, NFTs generate rewards after a fixed cooldown period. When a player attempts to claim these rewards, the system first checks two conditions:

* The **NFT's Durability** must be above zero.
* The **Player's Stamina** must be sufficient to perform the action.

If either condition is not met, the claim will fail.

   For all NFTs **except Worker NFTs**, the reward amount includes a **random variation ranging from -15% to +30%**. This adds an element of unpredictability and makes each claim action slightly different, encouraging active and strategic gameplay.

***

### 🛠️ Repair System

   Tools lose **Durability** with each use. Once worn out, they must be repaired using **TOOL** tokens to continue functioning and producing rewards.\
   With the seasonal system update, **repair costs now vary depending on the current season**, adding a new layer of strategy to when and how players maintain their equipment.

***

### 👥 Assistant System

   Players can assign another wallet as a **trusted assistant**. The assistant can remotely perform limited actions such as **Claim**, **Repair**, and **Stamina refill**, without needing access to the player's wallet keys.

***

### 🧪 Crafting System

   Players can craft new NFTs by spending specific resources: primarily TOOL and RANCH tokens.\
Starting with the upcoming update, Stamina will also be consumed during crafting.\
The resulting NFT is determined by predefined templates and recipes.

> **Important:** Crafting requires Stamina, but the initial **200 reserve Stamina** granted to new accounts **cannot be used** for crafting.\
> To proceed with crafting, players must have at least:\
> 200 (reserve) + required Stamina cost\
> in their available Stamina pool.

***Note:***** This means some high-tier crafts (e.g., Workshop or Diamond Worker) cannot be crafted without staking at least one Worker NFT, since additional Stamina capacity is required.**

***

### 💸 Withdrawal System

   Players can withdraw earned tokens to their wallets. A **dynamic fee between 5% and 8%** is applied to each withdrawal, calculated using an internal RNG-based mechanism.

***

### 🍀 Bonus Mechanism

   Staked **Worker NFTs** increase the yield of matching tool types. They can also add bonus rewards per claim, depending on configuration and chance.

***

### ⏳ Cooldown Periods

   Each NFT has a **charged time** (cooldown) that must elapse before rewards can be claimed again. Attempts to claim early will be rejected.

***

### 🤝 Referral System

   To encourage community-driven growth, RanchersLand introduces a referral system that rewards players for inviting others to the game. This system not only helps expand the player base organically but also provides long-term incentives for active community engagement.

Players can invite others to join RanchersLand using their unique referral link.

* After connecting their wallet, new players can manually assign a referrer account.
* The referrer must have joined the game **before** the referred player.
* This connection is permanent and cannot be changed after being set.
* Referrers earn a **0.5% commission** from every withdrawal made by their invitees.
* Rewards are automatically delivered to the referrer’s in-game balance.
* Players can view their referral connections and their invitees’ connections directly in the **Network Panel**.

This system supports sustainable ecosystem growth and incentivizes player-driven outreach.
