Upgrade leveling

The upgrade is leveled up by levels (up to 40). Each attempt is a chance: the higher the upgrade level, the harder it is, and the higher your level in Hostile (this sector — "Destroyers"), the easier it is.

Chance formula100 − (level × 2.1 − Hostile level × 1.5), not below 0
Stabilizersgive a second chance on failure (≈(chance+100)/2). They themselves drop when upgrades are destroyed
Rollback on failurethe level drops by 3 (but not below 1); spent parts are not returned
