Regular clips and gold clips
Regular clips pay for immediate supplies. Gold clips are used for skill upgrades and can also be found while exploring. Shops let you exchange regular clips for gold clips.

Using a terminal
Approach the side you need and follow its interaction prompt. On PC, a supply terminal can show OPEN SHOP / E. Use the displayed input if you play with different bindings or a controller.
Read the selected item’s quantity and price before buying. Gold clip exchanges become more expensive with repeated purchases, so use the price currently shown in your menu.
Choosing between supplies and upgrades
Buy immediate healing, armor or ammunition from the blue side when you need to stay in the fight. Use the red side to inspect upgrade descriptions and their prerequisites. Upgrade examples include MORE INCOME, LOOT and flashlight-related nodes.
The pickup-object upgrade precedes propjump in the reported upgrade path. Propjump was removed from Survival Mode in v48, so do not plan a survival strategy around it.
