Sandbox Weapon Shop and Money System

NPCs which rely on setting attributes for existing NPCs (case: `npc_rollermine_friendly`, `npc_rollermine_hacked`, and `npc_turret_floor_resistance`) WILL NOT WORK with this addon. GMOD does something weird when spawning these so the addon cannot properly replicate the changes. Until I figure out what GMOD does to make these work, those NPCs will not function with the addon.


A fun little script to make weapons worth getting by buying through hard earned blood money.


Please read the FAQ before posting a comment on this workshop; posts that do not follow this simple request will be removed starting April 2nd, 2025.

- You Kill, You earn Money
- Dynamic money value given depending on how much HP an NPC has
- Works on 99.99% of NPCs (and hopefully most Workshop NPCs)
- Many configurations to adjust money gain (Spawnmenu -> Options -> Weshop Admin -> Money Options)
- Configuration Presets
- Option to split cash between players (Co-op Mode)
- Option to replace vanilla ammo with grabbable cash
- Option to replace vanilla Wall chargers and health chargers to become shops
- Option to disable pickups on vanilla weapons
- If you want to replace other entities with shop/money i suggest using the Total Replacer mod (Warning from Famous5000: This addon appears to be a little buggy, if it doesn't work on the server then report it to the addon dev)
- As Admins, you can reset all players cash to the start using wblmoney_resetallplayermoney command console
- Option to buy anywhere (If enabled, you can say "!wblbuy" in chat, or use the console command "wblbuy")
- and others!

- Spend your hard earned cash on Weapons, ammunition and entities!
- Add your own weapons/entities or workshop SWEPS in the shop
- Organize weapons/entities in shop by adding them in categories
- Two weapons with the same "SlotID" will make it so only one of the weapons can be bought
- Option to disable pickup for same slot ID weapons
- Add Weapon list Presets and create your own weapon shop list
- Quickly edit ammo and weapons in the list by right clicking to open context menu
- Quick add option uses an algorithm to do the setup for you (about 90% correct setup)
- Use "wblmoney_showsuggestedprice" to see suggested price of your currently held weapon

Make your own weapon list. If you don't want to, wblack actually made a built-in preset for you to try:
Half-life 2 Tiered weapon list preset contains the following addons and must be subscribed to, so you can use it:
RTB:R Weapons Pack
Entropy: Zero 2 SWEPs
Entropy: Zero 2 Xen Grenade
ZBase EZ NPCs Content


After that, just go in game in gmod then open up the Spawnmenu -> Options -> Weshop Admin -> Shop Options
then select Half-life 2 Tiered under Weapon/Ammo List Preset.

Make the Weapon Shop entity under Spawnmenu -> entities -> Weshop

Get some profit by killing your enemies or friends!

Recommended to play with npc battle maps/scripts, here are some suggestion workshop mods to play with it:
Simple Horde Mode for Sandbox -- Famous5000 recommends; this addon is easy to configure and even allows for scaling battles.
gm_devbattle
Reinforcements System


The original developer (wblack) also made a guide in making it work in HL2 Campaign, check it out:
Play HL2 Campaign with Weapon Shops

Other useful mods:
Weapon: Setup, Transfer And Restore - Workshop If you get frustrated on losing your weapons (keep inventory)
Weapon Editor & Replacer for balancing/editing weapons
Alternate Model for Weapon Shop by Neeko
Customizable Entity Spawner after adding the shop entity on the list, should spawn around you
Modest Map Manipulator A mod that makes entities (like the weapon shop) to persist in maps

Note
- If you are using Manual pickup (i.e. Vmanip manual pickup), this will conflict with my "Disable All Vanilla Weapon Pickup" and "Disable pickup for same slot ID weapons" feature. Simply uncheck them in my option and manual pickup will work
- Inspired by Counter-Life, a half-life 1 mod you should try it!
- Most of this page is unedited from the legacy addon. Tried my best to replicate it.

Github[github.com] for the addon. Changes on the GitHub will be ahead of this addon until I can confirm everything is stable. If you want a more up-to-date addon use the unstable one, but beware of bugs.
