Battle Interface
The layout during battles.
The interface of the battle screen is similar to the real consoles but they are virtual. The pink bar on the top left is your current HP/max HP. The numbers next to it is the ammo left/max ammo of your current weapon equipped. The camera icon and the pause button on the top right let you take screenshot(the screenshot can be found in the game's folder, only 1 screenshot can be saved at one time) and pause the game. The character avatar below HP is the ally / friend you choose as support. Tap it and you will change into that character and you can use that character's equips for about 12 seconds (or more if using Mei or your buddy reach certain VIP Level). Next to it is the character's uniform skills or effects that can aid you in the battle, including the one from your uniform.
The large button on the bottom left is the virtual joystick that you can move your character. The three blue buttons on the right side is your weapons. Tap it once to equip the weapon and tap again to fire, but note that many weapons need to tap rapidly to keep attacking and some of them just need to hold on it. For example, pistols need to tap rapidly to keep firing and hold on to keep fire your auto rifle.

The supplies is the main resources to replenishes your weapons' ammo and your HP.

Rare Equips
If you pay attention to certain stages in a chapter, you will find that the stage may feature a rare reward, which will drop by chance when defeating enemies. Though these equips are not as powerful as the equips from Gacha, they are free and can provide better weapon versatility if you evolve them to the highest rarity. Keep challenging the stage if you did not get the equip.
