Employee Mod

Permanently modify your staff's traits, salary, and skill levels.

Changes are written directly into your save file – no need to re-apply after loading.

---

Requirements

• []UE4SS must be installed first.[/]

Follow the installation instructions on the UE4SS Nexus page before proceeding.

---

Installation

• []Extract the zip file into your game folder[/]

   RetroRewind\Binaries\Win64\ue4ss\Mods  The correct folder structure is already set up inside the zip — no further steps needed.

---

Configuration

Open config.lua in a text editor and add entries for the staff members you want to modify.

Use the exact name as shown in-game.

["Sarah"] = {

traits        = { 2, 3, 7 },

salary        = 6100,

skillCheckout = 99,

skillReturn   = 99,

["Anthony"] = {

traits        = { 3, 5, 7 },

salary        = 5000,

skillCheckout = 74,

skillReturn   = 99,

Do not edit main.lua — all configuration belongs in config.lua.

---

Available Options

Traits:

A list of trait IDs to assign. The staff member will have exactly these traits.

Any existing traits are replaced.

| ID | Trait Name           |

|----|----------------------|

| 2  | Strong Immune System  |

| 3  | Runner                |

| 4  | Thick-Skinned         |

| 5  | Strong Bladder        |

| 6  | Energetic             |

| 7  | Loyal                 |

| 8  | Complaint Handler     |IDs 0 and 1 exist in the game's data but are unused and have no visible effect.Salary:

Daily wage in cents (not dollars).

- 3900 = $39. 00 / day

- 6100 = $61. 00 / day

skillCheckout / skillReturn

Skill level for the checkout counter and return station.

| Value | In-game label  |

|-------|----------------|

| 15    | Slow           |

| 40    | Average       |

| 74    | Good           |

| 99    | Fast           |Or use any integer between 0 and 99.

Speed is calculated automatically by the game based on skills and traits.

You do not need to set it manually.

The Runner trait combined with high skills gives the fastest movement speed.

Wildcard entry

Use [""] to apply settings to all staff members who don't have their own entry:

[""] = {

traits = { 7 },   -- everyone gets Loyal

},

How to Apply Changes

Edit config.lua and save the file, then launch the game and load your save.

Changes are applied automatically — there are two ways this happens:

Option 1 – Play normally:

Simply open and close your store. The mod applies your config automatically

when the day ends and the game saves.

Option 2 – Time clock:

Save the game manually using the time clock in-game, then return to the

main menu and reload your save. This is necessary because the time clock

save requires a fresh load to reflect the changes in-game.

Once applied, your changes are stored natively in the save file and will

persist even if you disable the mod.

---

Uninstalling

Simply delete the Employee Mod folder from your Mods directory.

Any changes already written to your save file will remain, but no new changes will be applied.

To revert a staff member to their original values, you would need to restore a backup save.

Tip: Always keep a backup of your save file before making changes.

Your save files are located at:

%LOCALAPPDATA%\RetroRewind\Saved\SaveGames\
