## Context
- lets talk about upgrades to the res drill. currently we have a bit mold. but that doesnt really make sense for the res drill. lets redesign the whole upgrades functionality anyway.
- The Resonance drill is upgraded today by casting drill bits in a Bit mold, which doesn't make sense for a drill that shatters rock with pulses. Redesign how upgrades work as a whole. Earlier ideas from the design notes: an amplifier, a tuning fork and harmonics for the drill, a Grav pick tool and mining charges.
## Subtasks
- [ ] Decide what the drill's upgrades are (power, reach, width, tuning, harder rock) and how each is earned or built, replacing the Bit mold
- [ ] Decide whether other upgrades (the bag/tank, Flask, thermal lens) follow the same system
- [ ] Old saves keep the upgrades they already have
