Do not ask when mod authors will update their mods or if they can upload older versions of their mods.
Bothering mod authors will lead to warnings and repeat offenses will lead to bans.

Weapon modding 2.0: Checkbox to only show current Trader LL / owned mods, Shows trader / flea prices and build cost while modding, Highlights mods attached to other guns or ready to use, Button to detach items in use, Ability to zoom in/out.

Features

Adds a new checkbox in the weapon preset screen to only show trader items, and your own items ofc.

Shows item prices from current Traders (Supports custom traders)

1.7.0 and onward also show flea prices if the item is available there, also can abbreviate price tags:

Movable Build Cost Panel:

Button to detach items in use elsewhere (Doesn't touch equipped guns by default):

Highlights parts (Colors customizable in F12):

Directly usable (Loose in stash)
Already present in the current gun build
Attached to other stuff (But purchasable from traders)
Attached to other stuff (NOT purchasable)

Colored borders while modding:

Shows items on PMC, as well as in Rigs etc.

QoL change: Ability to zoom in/out with the mousewheel for those big chonkers

Everything is configurable in the F12 menu:

There is also the option to invert the Trader only view to show NO items from traders instead (Essentially flea and own items only):

If you have any issues, let me know
I tested everything thoroughly, without crashes and issues, but you never know

Credit to wara for the awesome original mod,
giving me the inspiration to push it to the next level.

Version 1.10.0
- ChooChoo
- Mar 21st 2025
- 2.7k Downloads
Update for SPT 3.11.X

As usual: If you find any bugs, let me know.
All looked good on my end, so far...

Version 1.9.0
- ChooChoo
- Jan 3rd 2025
- 9.9k Downloads
Update for SPT 3.10.X

Sorry for the long wait, and thanks to Fried Engineer for the update.

I quickly checked for functionality, and so far it looks good, though I did not test all edge cases (Custom traders etc.)

Version 1.8.0
- ChooChoo
- Jul 16th 2024
- 15k Downloads
Update for SPT 3.9.X

Did not do excessive testing, but everything seems to work as expected.
Lemme know if something is wrong.

Currently short on time, so might not immediately fix specific stuff.

Version 1.7.0

- May 26th 2024
- 6.2k Downloads
If you have a previous version installed:
Please delete the folder "user/mods/ChooChoo-TraderModding-1.2.0" when installing this version.
(I could no longer stand that old version tag in the folder name )
- Can now show flea market prices for items that are available on the flea, but not on traders (Red price tag, shows cheapest possible price)
- Abbreviated price tags (69420 becomes 69,4k, ON by default)
- Small fixes

Version 1.6.3
- ChooChoo
- May 9th 2024
- 2.9k Downloads
- Update to SPT 3.8.1 (Should support all 3.8.X versions of SPT)
Please update your SPT install to the latest version (3.8.1 at time of upload) to prevent compatibility issues that might occur with other mods.

Version 1.6.2
- ChooChoo
- Apr 29th 2024
- 2.5k Downloads
- Fixed currently locked traders showing their items while modding
- Show the cheapest price instead of the last found. (Better in line with BSG's weird logic of "Find Parts")
- To match the parts found for a gun build, use 132 rubles for one dollar.
  (The actual build cost for dollar prices is correctly converted via the actual price at the current traders.)
If you notice any prices being way off, or other issues, please let me know.

Version 1.6.1
- ChooChoo
- Apr 28th 2024
- 509 Downloads
- Now supports custom traders without any config file editing, it "just works"
Various fixes:
- Fixed rare cases where detaching items could put them in the same spot in the stash
- Don't show/highlight mods attached to guns in the weapon rack (Might make this optional later, it would rip apart weapons on the weapon rack, but behaves weirdly.)
- small stuff
As usual, let me know if you find any issues

Version 1.6.0
- ChooChoo
- Apr 27th 2024
- 308 Downloads
- Brand new button in the preset builder to automatically remove mods attached elsewhere to be usable.
Priority when finding an item to detach:
1. Attached to anything loose that is not a gun
2. Attached to anything that ultimately is attached to a gun
3. (Optional) Attached to equipped guns (OFF by default)

Version 1.5.3
- ChooChoo
- Apr 25th 2024
- 845 Downloads
- Fixed a mod breaking deadlock in the server when using other mods (like realism) that modify the price of dollars or euros to fractional amounts.
Thanks Json.DeserializeObject to not throw any errors, but rather cause a deadlock when faulty json is parsed.
Version 1.5.2
- ChooChoo
- Apr 24th 2024
- 383 Downloads
- Code refactor to get fields with AccessTools instead of transform.Find (Less error prone and faster, things should feel a bit more snappy now )
- Small fixes for not updated visual borders / build cost in some cases when assembling weapon
- More Log messages in case of errors
Let's hope this made a difference and I didn't break anything (I obviously tested everything, but as usual, you never know)
Please let me know if you encounter any issues or undesired behavior. All still WIP and not perfect, but I'm trying

Technical details: Before this refactor I was getting various GameObjects and Components via my patches and then finding appropriate child GameObjects in the hierarchy by using Transform.Find("Name") on the parents. I now learned that this shouldn't be done and can be avoided by not finding them by name, but by their reference in the Tarkov Assembly using AccessTools. In essence I now get all the FieldInfos I need beforehand and can then get the proper values (Thanks DrakiaXYZ), it's not only more robust but way faster this way.

will there be an update ?

  Yes, but there should be a big yellow banner saying :
  
  "Do not ask when mod authors will update their mods or if they can upload older versions of their mods.
  
  Bothering mod authors will lead to warnings and repeat offenses will lead to bans."

The trader only parts seems to be broken @ChooChoo , it shows unavailable mods. As well, I cannot see the build price and overall gun stats (ergo etc) when modding. Can you take a look at this?
dreadp1r4te Feb 1st 2025

I was literally just thinking an SPT playthrough with no flea would be awesome, and this pops up first search. Amazing! Thank you so much!
GrandmaStomper Jan 23rd 2025

Having an issue with the mod, it just doesn't seem to work at all for me.

I get the check box for the "Trader only" stuff, and I also get the box for "build cost", but neither seem to actually work. If I add stuff, the build cost never changes. The prices of the attachments don't show up in the boxes, and there's no change to the color of the boxes to indicate if I already own the attachment, etc.
FaLKReN Jan 11th 2025

Love the mod. The only thing I kind of wish for is a config option to ignore certain modded traders. For example I like to use AIOTrader for testing every once in a while, but since that trader has everything, this mod picks up all it's inventory, making it kind of pointless. So currently I need to disable AIOTrader as a workaround. Would be nice if there was a small config file that would allow the user to blacklist certain traders using their names. Otherwise, excellent mod, and quite frankly, it should be part of the base game as an option.
TrulyOdd Jan 5th 2025

This mod is amazing and something that the base game should have had so long ago. If at all possible would you be able to make the mod compatible with the Hardcore Rules mod? They would work great together.
Jbr394 Jan 4th 2025

thank god for you sir. My hero. Such a good mod.
DroWeeDead Jan 4th 2025

hello, i'm happy, for the update, but when i click on modify weapon gear my game crash... ive close server i dont know where can find the log...

Now all we need is Wara's Modding Stats Helper and 3.10 has finally released!
- Sasuke_Kun Jan 3rd 2025
  
  nah, SWAG is essential :0

- FriedEngineer Jan 3rd 2025
  
  Yeah, that just require recompiling for 3.10 in my testing

FriedEngineer Dec 20th 2024

@ChooChoo Hopefully you hadn't already started on updating this to 3.10 and I'm not stepping on your toes, but I really love this mod and I've got some software experience so I figured I'd give it a go. This is my first pass at doing an update like this but it seems to be working in my brief testing. https://github.com/Soulztorm/ChooChoo-TraderModding/pull/1

If you'd prefer I just release it under my own profile I'm happy to do that as well. I'm happy to do the same for Modding Stats Helper - by wara. In my brief testing it just needed recompiling

- Boutchoo Dec 21st 2024
  
  I can't live without this mod, if you ever make it work for 3.10 - I would be very grateful !
  1
- FriedEngineer Dec 21st 2024
  
  I agree! Gun modding is terrible without this mod.
  
  I've already got it to the point that the core functionality seems to be working in 3.10 but I have seen a few errors that I need to look into. I'd say it's 90% there, but that 10% is always the hardest.
  
  However I won't release anything until ChooChoo gives me the green light or does it himself (building on what I've started or doing it entirely on his own)

  Thanks for the mod update, but it seems to conflict with WTT - Pack 'n' Strap. After installing it, the mod items for WTT - Pack 'n' Strap disappeared.
- FriedEngineer Dec 22nd 2024
  
  @KingDream I’m not sure I understand to what you’re referring. If you’re on 3.9.x then I have nothing to do with it. If you’re on 3.10.x this mod is not compatible as it hasn’t been updated by ChooChoo and I haven’t released the 3.10 update I’m working on.
- Islarf Dec 22nd 2024
  
  do you think your version is okay to use as it is right now for basics? or is the 10% game breaking?

Does anyone know if the old version still works in AKI 3.10.2?
- EpicTree Dec 15th 2024
  
  Nope, it doesn't work with the current version.
Saint Nick Oct 15th 2024

I can only use this mod when making a preset and not when modding an existing weapon?
Edit; oh I had to click edit preset not just click modding. brilliant design as ever bsg
somsoc Sep 11th 2024

Thanks for your mod. It has taken me like 15 hours to finally find the parts to get the workbench just so I can use it! (getting unlucky and being killed with quest items so many times) It has made weapon modding so much clearer!

Would it be possible to hide the 'you have all available parts' message that shows at the bottom of the screen or alternatively make it more compact and move it somewhere maybe near the 'assemble' button? It overlaps the part selection boxes making it impossible to pick/see items

DevilFlippy Aug 15th 2024

Hey ChooChoo, I have a request if you accepts these.
Is it possible to add a check for available traders ?
I'm using Path to Tarkov, and I would like to hide all items that I can't buy, including from locked traders.
JamesVinso Jul 30th 2024

On the old mod I could compare stats and I can no longer do it
Nteger Jul 30th 2024

The mod seems to work halfway for me. The Build Cost Menu doesn't show anything, and I can't rotate weapons around like I can in the Modding menu, although I can zoom in and out. I'm running Fika and the only other mod I can think of that might be a conflict is Tyfon's UI Fixes.
Slothgang Jul 18th 2024

Amazing mod, I was wondering though if it would be possible to have an option show if an item is out of stock (another colour?)? I use Limited Traders which means parts are often out of stock so would be a really nice QOL to know before the purchase screen.

Edit: It actually does have the functionality of showing what's not in stock, it just does it by not showing you the item on the modding screen. Sorry for the misinformation!
Fehlster Jul 16th 2024

Thanks so much for the update!

Is there any way to get "Wara's modding stats helper" to work in the 3.9.X versions as well?

Hope you have a wonderful day!!!

SaltiestSaltySaltPie Jun 30th 2024

Hi, Thanks for awesome mod.
I have a feature suggestion. Could you please put in a config to toggle filtering out items that are out of stock.
My use case is that I use bronzeman mod, which force trade to be out of stock of items that are not extracted at least once by player. Currently your mod would show the trader items even though it is out of stocks.

I tried to mess around with the code but failed to figure out the current stock of items from traders.
Thanks again for the mod.

SaltiestSaltySaltPie Jul 1st 2024

I found a way to check if item in bronzeman mod

Code

        ...
        const pmcData = profileHelper.getPmcProfile(sessionId);
        
        const saveServer = container.resolve<SaveServer>("SaveServer");
        const profile = saveServer.getProfile(sessionId);
        const bronzemanItems: string[] = "bronzemanItems" in profile && Array.isArray(profile.bronzemanItems) ? profile.bronzemanItems : [];
        type ModAndCost = {
            tpl: string;
            cost: string;
        };
        type TraderData = {
            dollar_to_ruble: number;
            euro_to_ruble: number;
            modsAndCosts: ModAndCost[];
        };
        const allTraderData: TraderData = { dollar_to_ruble: 146, euro_to_ruble: 159, modsAndCosts: [] };
        const allTraderIds = Object.keys(Traders);
        allTraderIds.forEach((traderkey) => {
            const trader = Traders[traderkey] as string;
            // Skip fence, btr and lighthouse keeper
            if (traderkey == "FENCE" || traderkey == "BTR" || traderkey == "LIGHTHOUSEKEEPER") return;
            // Check if the trader is currently locked
            if (!pmcData.TradersInfo[trader].unlocked) {
                console.log("Trader: " + traderkey + " is locked, skipping items.");
                return;
            }
            const traderAssort = traderAssortHelper.getAssort(sessionId, trader, false);
            // Just to be sure so any custom traders don't break.
            if (traderAssort == undefined || traderAssort.items == undefined) return;
            for (const item of traderAssort.items) {
                if (!bronzemanItems.includes(item._tpl)) continue;
                let addedByUnlimitedCount = false;
                ...

This is absolutely amazing, should be in base game.
Love it!!

Excellent work!
Ahtu Jun 15th 2024

Great work, this mod is a must-have for any gun enthusiast. The QoL is unmatched.

Is there a way to add Fence to the list of trader options? My apologies if this is already enable and I missed that.
TheMayoJar Jun 10th 2024

Everything on the mod works for me except for only show trader items. It just shows me none. No error codes either. Have verified I'm on edit preset, have changed load order, and removed major mods I thought may have effected this and cannot get it to work for the life of me.
https://imgur.com/a/CJgKuTg
Any help you can give me is much appreciated, trying to do a default trader only playthrough and the mod not working is making it a nightmare!

Flea prices are here! Great job.

Merlin May 26th 2024

Suggestion: Could we possibly get . added option instead of , for modding (like 50.5k rather than 50,5k?) I know this is something super minor, but just thought I would suggest it. Could just be a simple check/uncheck box in the F12.

Overall, the mod is great. Keep up the great work!

  Yeah I kept playing around with different formatting, but the dot was barely visible.
  Might do more in the future, kind of short on time atm real life and stuff.
