How do I go about this? I know what file the game looks at for gun prices but I have no idea how to make the custom map read from my own edited version of that file. Any help would be nice. Thanks guys!

How to change prices of wall buys? in Scripting

Hello There!
Just so you know this should have been in scripting

but I'll help

First, navigate to root/usermaps/zm_yourmapname/zone_source and open the zm_yourmapname zone file.

At the bottom of your ZONE file, add the following line:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

stringtable,gamedata/weapons/zm/zm_levelcommon_weapons.csv

So your file should look something like this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

>class,zm_mod_level
>group,modtools

xmodel,skybox_default_day
material,luts_t7_default
 
// BSP
col_map,maps/zm/zm_great_divide.d3dbsp
gfx_map,maps/zm/zm_great_divide.d3dbsp

// Audio
sound,zm_great_divide

scriptparsetree,scripts/zm/zm_great_divide.gsc
scriptparsetree,scripts/zm/zm_great_divide.csc
scriptparsetree,scripts/_NSZ/nsz_buyable_ending.gsc
stringtable,gamedata/weapons/zm/zm_levelcommon_weapons.csv
scriptparsetree,scripts/zm/zm_usermap.gsc

Then go to root/share/raw/gamedata/weapons/zm and copy "zm_levelcommon_weapons.csv"

Now you need to go back to root/usermaps/zm_yourmapname and create a new folder called "gamedata".

Inside that folder, make a folder called "weapons"

Inside the weapons folder, make a folder called "zm"

Inside the zm folder, paste the "zm_levelcommon_weapons.csv"

Now open it with any text editor.
It should look like this:

After the weapon_upgraded, It shows a number (I have highlighted in yellow). This is the wallbuy price. change this value on whatever weapon you want to change the price.

Example:
shotgun_pump,shotgun_pump_upgraded,,750,shotgun,,,,,FALSE,FALSE,FALSE,,,FALSE,TRUE,shotgun,
If I wanted to change its price to 1000, it would look like this:
shotgun_pump,shotgun_pump_upgraded,,1000,shotgun,,,,,FALSE,FALSE,FALSE,,,FALSE,TRUE,shotgun,

Then, just save, then link your map in the launcher and it should be ready to play.
