Ammo and healing items are precious commodities. Always scavenge every area thoroughly for dropped items and open all crates. Purchase ammo and healing items whenever you are in a safe zone and have sufficient funds. Consider investing in 'Ammo Capacity Up' skills for your preferred weapons. Don't be afraid to switch weapons if one type of ammo is running low. For example, if your shotgun is empty, switch to a pistol or even melee until you find more shells. Use healing items proactively rather than reactively; it's better to heal early than to risk dying. Sell excess crafting materials or less useful weapons to earn money for essential supplies. A well-managed inventory is key to long-term survival.
