Hey your advice fixed it. It is working great now. I really appreciate the help, thank you again.

Hey so I tried out the XML edits to the game and its not working. I'm not sure what I did wrong. I copy/paste the XML edit and deleted the repeated code. Is there a certain way the code has to be layed out to work? I made sure there were no empty spaces between and spaced it how it was, with the added code. Oh and yes you description of what you said is exactly what I would like.

https://7daystodiemods.com/the-wasteland/ Here is a link to where I downloaded the mod. It Uses a blend of the vanilla progression system and the mod progression system SPIFSAL. The skill points are used to increase perks on the specific skill trees. The SPIFSAL system works like this. You start with 21 Attribute points. SPIFSAL is broken up into 7 Attributes, each with there own skill tree, and preks. The more attribute points you put into Strength for example, the more perks are available. (Packmule, Tool Nipper, ect.) To a total of 10. The kicker is you only get 21 Attribute points total. All other points are temporary or one time uses permanent +1 increase to that specific Attribute. sorry im a very slow typer haha. That's fantastic work, Im excited to put that in the xml files to see how it turns out. and I really appreciate all the help, this stuff is a bit confusing to me. Also if you have not tried out the mod, I would recommend it.

I am trying make the SPIFSAL books increase by 1 to a total off 10 for each 1 book found for that specific attribute. Ohhhh okay I got you, give me a sec

It already increases the attribute directly. I feel I'm not accurately explaining myself properly, my apologies. I pulled this from the 7 days to die mod site explaining the system in the overhaul I'm talking about. Each player is given 21 SPIFSAL points at the beginning of a game. These are for core attributes only. Skill points are gained per level as vanilla and are used only to upgrade perks. Each perk level has both a skill point and player level requirement, which can be seen by hovering over the lock icon for each perk level. Once all your SPIFSAL points have been used, the only other ways to boost an attribute level is through wearing the proper clothing items(glasses/bandanas/etc), finding a rare SPIFSAL book in loot(permanent +1 to the book’s attribute) or rare power armor statues(permanent +1 to the book’s attribute).You can gain a temporary boost using certain drug items, just be aware of their side effects.

I found the Buff. all of the Statue Attribute Buffs are Identical </buff> <!-- Statue Attribute Buffs --> <buff name="buffAttributeStrength" hidden="true" remove_on_death="false"> <duration value="0"/> <effect_group> <triggered_effect trigger="onSelfBuffStart" action="PlaySound" sound="read_skillbook_final"/> <passive_effect name="AttributeLevel" operation="base_add" value="1" tags="attStrength"/> </effect_group>

This is the XML, it is from the Wasteland overhaul mod. <!-- Attribute Statues --> <item name="paStatueStrengthI"> <property name="HoldType" value="3"/> <property name="DisplayType" value="paStatueStrengthI"/> <property name="CustomIcon" value="paStatueStrength"/> <property name="Meshfile" value="#@modfolder:Resources/TraderJohnny.unity3d?collectible1"/> <property name="DropMeshfile" value="#@modfolder:Resources/TraderJohnny.unity3d?collectible1"/> <property name="Material" value="Mplastics"/> <property name="Stacknumber" value="15"/> <property name="Weight" value="50"/> <property name="EconomicValue" value="1000"/> <property name="Group" value="Resources"/> <property class="Action0"> <property name="Class" value="OpenBundle"/> <property name="Delay" value="2"/> <property name="Use_time" value="2"/> <property name="Sound_start" value=""/> <property name="Create_item" value="paStatueStrengthUsed"/> <property name="Create_item_count" value="1"/> </property> <effect_group tiered="false"> <triggered_effect trigger="onSelfPrimaryActionEnd" action="AddBuff" target="self" buff="buffAttributeStrength"/> <display_value name="dAttributeStr" value="1"/> </effect_group> </item> all the attribute increase book's XML are identical to this. BFT2020 that is also I good Idea, though I am very new to XML editing. Making new code for items would be great practice.

Yes, When I'm off work today I will take a screen shot of the item's XML and post it here. I really appreciate the help.

Hello, I downloaded and installed The Wasteland overhaul mod and I am really enjoying it. There is something I would like to change but I don't know how. There are books in the overhaul that increases your attributes by one, depending on if its a strength book or Intelligents book ect. I really like this but the book is a one time use. I would like to edit the XML to have the book give you one attribute point depending on which attribute type per book you find, to the max of 10 per attribute. I have attempted to edit the XML but can't get it to work. If anyone knows how to do this I would really appreciate it.
