SCUM traders and server economy

Manage item catalogues, prices, fame, purchase rules, shop profiles and controlled EconomyOverride.json deployment for traders.

Traders and server economy give operators control over what individual SCUM outposts sell, buy and under which conditions. Nodera reads the live EconomyOverride.json, compares it with the item catalogue and creates a database draft that can be edited without immediately changing the server.

Review a draft and its differences before explicit apply

Changing price, fame or availability updates only the draft. The live file changes only from an immutable prepared state record with hash protection and backup.

Economy controls available to staff

The editor preserves native keys and unknown values that do not have a dedicated safe field.

  • buy and sell prices, dynamic delta and required fame
  • purchase availability and player-supplied-stock behaviour
  • multi-trader edits and reusable inherited shop profiles
  • global economy settings, preview, export, review and reset

An economy designed for the server type

The same catalogue can support hardcore survival, an event server or regional shop differences.

  • set different weapon and supply prices by outpost
  • disable purchase while keeping other override values
  • share one shop profile across multiple traders
  • compare the live source with a prepared draft before change

Catalogue, state record, draft and protected deployment

The view-only current record captures global settings, every trader section including empty ones and the live hash. Missing codes can be explicitly linked with an alias or imported into the shared catalogue.

During apply, NODERAgent verifies exact prepared size, SHA-256 and an unchanged live file, creates a backup and writes the valid document. The operation does not run RCON or restart the game.

A more precise economy without blind overwrite risk

Teams can design and review broad changes in a clear interface and always know which version was prepared and applied.
