My inventory after doing only two misions and some looting.
Weapons:
Mosint nagant (scoped) with 20 bullets.
Colt m1911 (silenced) with 56 bullets.
Suit: Sunrise suit.
UPD: Fully charged.
Food: Only imported food. I never had to eat "zone produced" food.
Money: See it by yourselves.
This is an example of a well done playing style. You're doing it right, I had the same equipment and almost as much money as you at this point. You just have to get used to it.
Ah, btw, are you able to use the headlamp? Just rightclick on the item and in the following dialog box click "attach" (or "use", idk any more) and you'll see. But I'd keep the wind-up flashlight always in inventory since it is independent from the UPD.
Thanks. I used the headlamp, but everytime i activate the flashlight the headlamp is detached, and I don't "use" It again until I have to.
You should report that, though in the earlier betas it worked fine for me.
I think is not a bug. I can equip and use the headlamp, but when I use the handheld flashlight the headlamp detaches.
