While working on the upgrade system, I decided that I first need to figure out the resources dropped by enemies and then how much of those resources will be needed for the upgrades.
I spent about two hours just thinking about how I wanted it all to work- how many different resources I wanted, how many different levels I want for each stat, and worst of all; how many resources will be required for each level. I decided that I am going to make the first level (constructing the drone) expensive to build with the most common resource to encourage building and upgrading a few drones at a time instead of constructing a large amount of drones. The player can still choose to make a large amount, it will just be more expensive than upgrading drones.
