If anyone is interested in cheating a bit to make this less of a slog, here's some steps to greatly improve worker production:

- Open the dev tools debugger
- Find index-CNcs0FfM.js and run the code formatter
- Search for "_re[e]"
- You should find a single line: "const r = _re[e];"
- Set a breakpoint on that line and wait for it to get hit
- Now enter this into the console:

// Remove any negative production costs, produce 2x as much
for (const w of Object.values(_re)) {
    w.production = w.production.filter(p => p.amount > 0);
    w.production.forEach(p => {
        p.amount *= 2;
    });
}

// a couple extra tweaks for things you really need a lot of

_re.gatherer.production[0].amount = 50; // wood
_re.gatherer.production[1].amount = 20; // stone

// you need so much effin food
_re.hunter.production[0].amount = 20; // food

_re.moonstone_miner.production[0].amount = 10;
_re.steel_forger.production[0].amount = 10;

- Unset the breakpoint and resume

And if it's still too much of a slog, the variable n on that line is the entire game state. You could set the breakpoint again and do something like this: "n.resources.gold = 50000"
