An extensive overhaul of all of the traders in the zone made to create more immersion as well as a better reason to actually travel the zone from place to place. Trader Overhaul Complete Version: 1.33 (1.5.1 & 1.5.2 Version) Author: AGoodSetOfPistols It is finally here! The complete version of the Trader Overhaul! As was my goal when I set out to make this addon, I was looking to add a small, but significant advancement to the Immersion of the Zone. I firmly believe that the best way to get someone really into a world is through the details. My favorite franchise of all time is the Thief franchise (With the exception of that terrible fourth game that as far as I’m concerned is not cannon or exists!). These games brought me into their worlds and immersed me in ways that no other games I’ve played have been able to match. However, the Stalker games come close, and Anomaly comes fairly close itself! With that being said, how does this addon increase immersion? Well I can’t do what the Thief games do to immerse you so that wont work. So instead I took a small part of the game “traders” and decide to adjust them massively. But you may ask, “how does that effect immersion any?” Well simple, it gives you a reason to travel the zone, to see it differently, and most importantly, to create a rhyme and reason to traveling that wasn’t quite there in the start of this Mod. Like I said its small, but it has an important role in shaping how, and why you travel the zone. Is it perfect? No. but It does that job In what I believe is an effective and powerful way that seems simple but makes all the difference to your playthrought. This addon is by no means "Complete." By that I mean to say that there will still be updates going forward. However, these updates will be much smaller and mostly glitch fixes and other similar issues. Features The following is a list of some of the features present in this addon. Take note, this is similar, but not entirely the same as my earlier Trader Overhaul files. All traders have been overhauled. Some more so than others. In addition, a few new traders have been added to the list of available traders in the zone (or more that they have their own profile now). The following are just a few of the changes made to the traders. Sidorovich: He now mostly sales a wide range of guns and only a few armors now. Loris: He now provides mostly rookie gear and survival items. He offers a large range of basic stuff for surviving in the zone. Barkeeper: He has a similar inventory to that of SOC where he sells guns, armors and other useful items. He also sells the Sunrise suits that Sidorovich no longer sells. Meeker: Sells some high tier guns and armors now and has been largely expanded on. Cashier: Similar to Meeker. Beard: He will now buy artifacts similar to the ecologist. Hardmode files are now fully compatible! Lore Friendly factions has been integrated directly into the addon now (Not an optional file anymore!) Some traders may now sell random junk items or crafting parts. Traders such as The Bandit Trader from Truck Cemetery and Forester have been added among others (They have their own unique stock of items!) and much much more! A Hard Mode version of the addon which doubles reputation needed to unlock extra items. Also sets all traders to buy items at at least 80% or higher durability. Not all traders have access to all items anymore! You may have to travel about the zone more in order to get certain items especially the technological items. Random Stalkers around the zone are now more viable as potential customers for your goods to sell. Meaning that they may actually provide you with a better deal or just more access to stuff than in the base game! In short they will sell you more things while selling it at a better price and buying at a better rate. A few new traders have been added which have their own set of items for them. There is an optional version of the Trader Overhaul which has a number of special suits for sell from different traders with an optional file for new icons. See below for more details! And much more! Traders have now been placed into tier systems regarding how well armed they are. The tier system is as follows; Tier 1 (50% chance that any said gun they sell will appear in their stock during a restock cycle. Also much more limited set of items they will sell. Furthermore they will ONLY sell ammo to belongs to weapons they sell) Tier 2 (65% chance that any said gun they sell will appear in their stock during a restock cycle. They generally have more gear available to them. Furthermore, they will sell all ammo types but are limited on non-used ammo till higher levels of goodwill) Tier 3 (80% chance that any said gun they sell will appear in their stock during a restock cycle. They have the most gear available to them. Furthermore, they will sell all ammo types with no restrictions) The following is a list of the factions in each tier system; Tier 1 Poorly Funded/ Poorly equippe
