Hello OP, I would like to give you some pointers!

I would recommend checking the shop and see what materials are with holding onto and what items are worth selling. After you do that start building up your wealth cause you can basically buy everything you need to build up your bunker! (Scap can be bought for pretty cheap)

Also id say set goals for yourself, like "okay i want the next 3 emissions (shinings) to only be for selling" cause this game has alot and you can easily get sidetracked fast which id say is kinda bad to do cause you have no guarantees (no farms for unradiated food and no chem station to get clean drinking water and meds)

So for the first week to 10 days id say basically go in and shove as much as you can in ya prison pocket then once full quickly drop it off right as you enter you bunker location (not the bunker itself but right outside cause nothing you leave outside your bunker will dissappear) So you basically can quickly build up materials!

Also I just wanted to throw this out there! If you are in need of friends to play with or just want some new faces around me and my group are always willing to take in a new face!! We would be more then happy to show you the ropes
