BTSE Mod Errors with own PricesAndValuse Mod
Hello,

I am having a rather difficult time getting my servers Prices and Valuse mod to work. For some reason, when I load in to the server, all the BTSE mods are flagged red in the mod list when I look at it after hitting ESC.

I can not right click and view the global shop with our error codes pop'ing up

If I admin view by just right clicking bringing up the BTSE window, it shows the item shop but in the middle of the screen it says the item list is loading and never completes.

Strangly, the vehicle shop is working fine.

I'm at a loss and could really use some guidance.

All of the valuables show up in the Valuables list as well. Its just the Item Shop not loading, and right click access to the global shop no loading and throwing errors.

I have done everything I can think of possible to correct these issues.

As it stands now, after 7 hours of working on it:

Valuables work and can be sold at the ATM (If enabled)
Vehicles show up in the shop. (Cant buy at the moment because it wont recognize the Shop terminal even when its set as a vehicle shop)
Global shop/items will not load
All BTSE mods are errored (Red) in the escape > mods (bottom right)
My mod is white which is loaded after BTSE_Economy

I have rebuilt my mod 3 times.
Removed and uninstalled/reinstalled ALL BTSE files as well as mine.

I have used the in game BTSE admin menu to convert the PricesAndValues lua to the updated format

I have even restructured my mod to match that of The Doobie Brothers Economy mod for the prices and vales lua and still nothing is working.

if you have errors check your console.txt after loading into the game (not after opening the ui), especially around "lexer" issues, which means broken code.

i see your eco mod has repacked the full examples submod which you are not supposed to do, as per instructions in the faq. https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/2784972075/3767860527653716926/#c3767860527653718442

you also repacked all my economy vehicle thumbnails and other economy textures, which is a thing to do indeed.

the option to convert prices and values is for old versions of the economy, so not sure why you did what you did. in any case it will only dump the items that were successfully added to the currently running game which rules out your broken item addition list being fixed.

btse mods being red in the escape menu is meaningless, it has been a bug with the game for a long time. some others reported it multiple times.

locations of shop terminals, atms and other economy objects are subject to a caching mechanism that works when the sprite is loaded into the reality bubble of a user which means if you place them, leave the cell and come back for it to be recognized, or use the "find economy objects around you" button in any shop ui when standing very close to it. https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/2784972075/592886359937523266/#c592888815005260079

this wiki is by far not done but maybe it helps you. https://bikinitools.info/books/btse-economy/page/valuesandpriceslua

The log I did not know about lol, found all of my issues in there. Works great now. Only think I would ask is if you could let me know how this super generator works ? does it power a whole cell, area or just a building ?

you can right click generator and choose what it does. it can automatically try to keep the generator turned on, refuel and repair automatically, depending on what you choose.
