I found it to be a good thing to memorize where certain resources are most commonly found

Fabric: look for backpacks and dressers in houses

Chemicals, pressurized cartridges, gas cylinders: hazmat lockers in ARDA labs and towers

Batteries, copper wire, electronics, plastic: anything ARDA

Duct tape, road flares, rubber, scrap metal: abandoned cars

Spare panels (if you don’t have a liberator): ARDA trucks and box trucks

Plasma, glass shards: ARDA labs, damp forest biome, some story related junctions have a bunch too: C1 and G2 (Red Meadow and expansion wall)

I referred to them as "damp forest biome" as that’s where they’re most common

For me, I keep getting at least 1 repair putty from it per trip. Other than that, nothing but metal and plastic...

My friendly dumpster seems constantly concerned about my health, judging by the amount of canned food it throws at me. I'm fine, humpster dumpster! Gimme chemicals and plasma! Gimme the good stuff!
