Why is my EconomyOverride.json not loaded?

The most common cause is a number without quotes. This editor exports every value as a string; also check the file name in SCUM/Saved/Config/WindowsServer and edit while the server is stopped.

How do I stop a trader selling an item?

Add the item under the trader with can-be-purchased set to false.

How to use SCUM EconomyOverride editor?

EconomyOverride.json lets you change item prices and availability at SCUM traders. The format is strict: every value must be a quoted string, numbers included. The editor takes care of that for you.

Start the server once: it generates SCUM/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/EconomyOverride.json (the file may be named differently in some versions: check your folder).
Import that file into the editor.
Adjust the global settings, then add a trader (e.g. A_0_Armory) and its items with their tradeable-code.
Use -1 to restore the default price; can-be-purchased is default, true or false.
Download the file, put it in the config folder while the server is stopped, then restart.
