A script over-ride to (re-)enable the different pricing tiers of buying transition routes from traders.
The tiers are:
- regular 8k
- sensitive 10k
- hidden 12k
- secret 40k
Not knowing what the originally intended balance was supposed to be I spread the tiers as they made most sense to me:
- X-Labs will be secret transition at 40k
- underground areas will be hidden transition at 12k
- transitions that lead to the CNPP, Sarcofagus and Generators will be hidden transitions at 12k
- transition zones that lead into zones north of Military Warehouses will be sensitive transitions at 10k
-> prices for transitions increase from south to north
This mod will make use of the different pricing tiers in "txr_routes.script".
Its' effects show only when playing with the "Accessible Zone" check mark TURNED OFF. If your game has all the transitions unlocked then this mod won't do anything for you.
The tiers had been there from the get-go but weren't actually used. All route prices were set to 8000 Rubles. With there being another 3 tiers which are: sensitive (10k), hidden (12k) and secret (40k).
I spread the tiers increasing from south to north.
X-Labs (and similar labs) are secret locations which will cost you a fortune.
Transitions into the CNPP and immediately connected zones will be at 12k. Also underground location transitions will be sold for 12k.
Everything north of Army Warehouses and Yantar will be considered sensitive transitions for 10k.
Southern transition zone prices have been left largely untouched apart from the Clear Sky hidden base exit (which i priced at 10k because i can).
This mod is meant for an "immersion" playthrough. And again: if you are playing with "accessible zone" enabled, this mod will not do anything for you.
Install:
- drop included /gamedata archive into /Anomaly
- should work with MO2
- new game not required
- should have minimal conflicts if any
- can be removed at any time

This is perfect, specially the labs price
I think your balance it's awesome btw
Thank you.
The price balancing is not mine, that is all Tronex, tbh.
I take credit for *assigning* the prices.
I am open to suggestions whether some of the transition zones should be cheaper/more expensive.
The X-labs,warlab and secret lab will stay at 40k I think.
