Here's a tutorial on how to script a discount in shops that activates upon a switch in VX Ace:

First go to the script editor and then go to Window_ShopBuy

scroll all the way down to line 56 where you will find def price(item)

replace it with this:

def price(item)

return @price[item] if $game_switches[7] != true

return @price[item] / 2 if $game_switches[7] == true

end

This will half the cost of all items if switch 7 is true/on and returns the cost to normal if switch 7 is false/off.
( != means not equal to and == means equal to)

Now just create an event on the map that puts switch 7 to true and calls the shop command.

If you want to reduce the cost even further than half by dividing with a decimal, write the code like this: return (@price[item] / 1.5).to_i this prevents the item cost from turning into one long decimal number (something like 3.4111111112) and turns it into a regular 3.

While I was busy with my personal life, I've been trying to figure out the aesthetic of this game and since the hourly soundtrack is made in Microsoft Music Producer (an old Windows 98 program) I've decided to make the UI retro stuff inspired :) - Martin
