Survival isn't just about scavenging; it's about trade. The wasteland economy revolves around Money, the primary currency used to purchase essential survival gear, blueprints, and resources.
The Merchant
The Merchant is your primary source of income and supplies. Accessible directly from your dashboard, the Merchant allows you to sell the raw materials you've gathered in the world—such as wood, stone, copper, iron, and gold.
Prices at the Merchant are dynamic. Supply and demand dictate how much you will get for your hard-earned scavenged goods. If everyone is selling iron, the price will drop. A smart survivor holds onto their goods and waits for the right moment to sell when prices are high!
Purchasing Supplies
You can also use your Money to buy items from the Merchant. If you are missing that one crucial piece of scrap or electronic part to finish your crafting project, check the Merchant's inventory. Just remember: in the wasteland, nothing comes cheap.
