gunpowder store

Instantly exchange your extra pesetas for gunpowder via configurable hotkeys.

Gunpowder Merchant (script)

** Instantly exchange your excess pesetas for gunpowder via a configurable hotkey. **

💸 **Running on ammunition but flush with cash? ** This REFramework script allows you to purchase gunpowder anytime, anywhere. It's designed to be lightweight, bug-free, and built for players who just want to focus on shooting, not looting.

⚙️ How it works

• **Default Cost:** 10,000 Pesetas
• **Default Reward:** 10 Gunpowder
• **Input Methods:** Fully customizable hotkeys (keyboard, mouse or gamepad).

When you press the bound key, the script checks to see if you have enough money. If the conditions are met, it deducts the pesetas and adds the gunpowder directly to your suitcase (prioritizing replenishing existing stacks to save space).

📖Backstory

The original plan for this mod was to add gunpowder directly to the merchant's purchase menu. However, merchant inventories are hard-coded in static game files, making modifications difficult and prone to conflicts or failure after game updates.

This script is a "simplified" version of that idea. It simulates trading through code rather than a user interface. You can stand in front of a merchant, press a hotkey, and pretend you just bought a box of supplies from him!

✅ Compatibility

• **"Resident Evil 4 Remake" (base game):** ✅ Support
• **"A Different Path to Destiny" (DLC):** ✅ Support

⚠️Fair Game Warning

This mod is essentially a **cheat**. The survival horror experience of Resident Evil 4 relies on the scarcity of resources.

• **Recommended usage scenarios:** For New Game+, fun playthroughs, or when you're stuck in a soft lock due to low ammo.
• **Not recommended for use:** **Never** use it on your first pass! This will most likely destroy the tension and balance of the game. Please use it conscientiously!

⚙️ Configuration (change price and quantity)

You can easily change the cost or quantity of gunpowder obtained by editing a script file.

**Note:** You must *enable* the mod in Fluffy Manager before you can edit the file.

• Navigate to your RE4 game installation folder (e.g. `Steam\steamapps\common\RESIDENT EVIL 4 BIOHAZARD RE4`).
• Enter the `reframework` -> `autorun` folder.
• Open the `GunpowderShop.lua` file with any text editor (Notepad, Notepad++, etc.).
• Look at these lines of code at the top of the file:

```lua

local gunpowder_id = 117600000

local bundle_amount = 10 <-- modify this to change the amount

local cost_price = 10000 <-- Edit this to change the price

```

• **Example:** If you want to buy **5 units of gunpowder** for **500 pesetas**, change `10` to `5` and `10000` to `500`.
• Save the file.
• In the game, click **"Reset Scripts"** in the REFramework menu (or restart the game) to apply the changes.
