The Uplink

The Uplink is where you do almost all your purchasing. While vendors will sell clothing (for Research Merits) and roaming vendors sell power cell schematics and octarine gas, nearly everything else comes from the Uplink. To open it, hit U on your keyboard. All purchases are delivered instantly to your inventory. If you cannot afford an item, or you do not have sufficient faction standing to purchase it, the price will be shown in red.
