Project Zomboid script editor

Edit item and recipe scripts without hand-editing .txt files.

How it works

Pick an editor

Each one comes preloaded with its script file. You can also load your own modded .txt with “Open .txt…”.

Edit or bulk-edit

Filter the list, then change one entry or everything shown, like multiplying Weight or halving recipe time. Undo covers the last action.

Export and paste

Export gives the full file text (or only what changed). Copy it over your script. Unsaved edits are kept in this browser between visits.
