Understanding the User Interface (UI) — SCUM Guide

Navigate SCUM's UI: health, stamina, energy, metabolism, inventory, crafting, and status effects. Essential for survival.

The SCUM UI is packed with information crucial for your survival. On the bottom left, you'll see your Health, Stamina, and Energy bars. Above that, your Metabolism Panel (accessed by pressing Tab) displays detailed information about your body's needs: hydration, nutrition, vitamin levels, and more. The Inventory (also Tab) allows you to manage your items, equip gear, and craft. The Crafting Panel is integrated into the inventory. On the top right, you'll see your Compass and current Location. Pay close attention to status effects that appear as icons near your health bar, indicating hunger, thirst, injuries, or illnesses. Mastering the UI is key to managing your character's complex needs.
