FS19 - Price Fixing V1.1

Change the prices of shop items. Improve Game Balance.

This script will let you change the price of shop items, configurations or fill-types. You can also hide an item from the shop, using a single configuration file. It is designed for those that want to change/hide items for balance reasons while still being able to update mods. It has great use for map makers as well.

When the mod is started for the first time, it will create a PriceFixing.xml file in a "modsSettings" directory located in the same place as your "mods" directory.

All changes are indexed by the XML definition file of the item. To help you find the correct file name to make a change, the console command "priceList" will output all prices to log.txt.

Version 1.1 Changelog:
- You can now change the price of configurations (like the cost of engine upgrades) (see Example #5)
- You can now delete map elements off your map if you know the node-path (see Example #6)
- You can now change the capacity of trailer, silos, and other objects (see Example #7)

The examples below show how different XML can be added to the file to change item properties:

Adding elements to the PriceFixing.xml file can
EXAMPLE #1: Change the price of another mod's item (the "~" is replaced with the path to your mod directory)


EXAMPLE #2: hide a standard item from the store (base-game items use the full path to their XML file)
