In the screenshot that was shared on page 1, there was a setting to disable quests. There are also more similar settings to make a playthrough play out very differently.

That's a nice option.
Disabling Traders goes a step further. No buying and selling either. It isn't a super common configuration, but enough that I supported it in my modlet by making alternative versions of the traders so that people could edit their prefabs.xml files and for example rename "trader_bob" to "trader_bobx" to switch to a "fallen" trader POI.
Maybe y'all could take a similar path via code?

Oh hey, look at that! I completely missed that somehow. Shutting of quests is a big step, it keeps people from resetting POIs with particularly good loot in them or continuously running T1s for magazine bundle rewards.
Hopefully there's a setting to adjust selling too, it's to easy to wrench a couple cars and then be set for money the rest of the game. Maybe not shut it off entirely, but at least reduce the payout or lower the number of duplicate items they'll buy.

Disabling traders would be a great option. Ive ignored them and great, except for the items you can only get at traders

There is an option for trader hours and just today we were talking about adding an always closed choice, which would completely disable them without leaving a flat nothing piece of ground in an existing game.

I think there are buy/sell price scaling options.

Always open is a choice. Not heard anyone mention doors related to that.

Unfortunately, no. Console doesn't have access to the dev tools or dev items for one reason or another. The only option console currently has is crossplay. Possibly it could also be done with a custom POI that has a custom container that always has those dev items in it. That would have to be on a custom map that is on a dedicated server. But I'm not sure if you can make a custom container work on consoles. It would be a pain anyhow. Better to just get someone to join with you on PC and share the item. Only have to do that once and they don't have to keep playing the game with you afterwards.

Then, there is no need, I can just remove the doors on their pois,
and select that option.
The reason I thought about it is because of a recent event. I forgot
to shut the doors at the Trader, while fighting a vulture. It was different
with constant respawn. I even got Rekt by a Dire, because the big doors
close so slowly.
Thanks for the reply.

Interesting. I'll certainly appreciate being able to set the trader hours to match my day length setting.
Maybe I don't fully understand. If a trader is always closed is it still impervious to players and zombies? If so, then isn't it entirely a "flat nothing" as it just takes up space? I probably don't fully understand. With the approach taken in my mod, you get new tier 2 POIs to explore.
It had occurred to me after I posted that turning off buying/selling and missions still possibly leaves a hole for completing the biome gear, but I'll bet you all have thought of all of those complications.
A black box is not a flat nothing. For example you could drive through a flat nothing (a desert plain may be a flat nothing), but not through a always closed trader.
