We will try to understand each and note the main points.
Inventory in the game “Shadow of Chernobyl”
In Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl, equipment has the simplest look possible. On the left is displayed inventory with available items. On the right is the hero himself with characteristics and main indicators. Above are cells for equipment, and in the center there is a window for information. It is a standard set, which is not so convenient to use. But the players adapted themselves and were able to use it effectively for a successful adventure.
In addition to the inventory itself, bolts, a radiation measurement sensor and anomaly signaling device are available to the stalker. As a bonus, a bright flashlight is provided that will save your life more than once. The handheld computer did not go unnoticed , but in the first part it is not particularly needed.
