What earns train space

Healing items outrank almost everything; a bandage is the difference between a setback and a wipe, and revives make them team infrastructure. Tools follow: shovels feed the firebox, and light sources decide whether night looting is farming or suicide. After that it is economics: the sell value per carry slot of whatever junk you passed.

Selling and spending

Valuables exist to be sold at towns, and the good runs are the ones that treat looting like a route: known buildings, known spawns, straight to the vendor. Puzzle items are the exception to every rule; they are worthless at the shop and priceless at the one door they open.
