That is how the scenario works now, you need to kill buildings to get money.

I wish that this was a setting and not a forced on to the players
The reason why I wanted to play it but because it reminds me of Call of Duty zombie mode which I like

This was the first time that I was going to play this mode (thought this was going to be really fine after watching a video about it) after finding out that I can't even enjoy it makes me not even want to play this game

I played it a lot but without the different modes to play it's just not as fun as it used to be

That's why I'm kind of upset about that
I wish there was another way of handling this but if that's the only way then
never mind then

Thank you for taking the time out to read my post

As it was a recent change you can probably just copy the scenario from an old version (and rename it). Though it won't stay compatible forever without maintenance.

I could send you a local copy I have of "Non Wave Defense" https://mods.factorio.com/mod/NonWaveDefense. There were some weird bugs/glitches that I've mostly ironed out. I think on loading a save it can "forget" some upgrades, so I added a /reset_upgrades command to ... reset them (resets tech bonuses, then applies these bonuses, so can have a problem with non-tech mods).

Money-wise, I think Non Wave Defense takes a little longer, but it works in any game. It already had support for hot/cold biters and some natural evolution enemies, and I added in Schall Endgame Evolution enemies.
I have mods! I guess!

The old WD was really too easy (sit behind your walls and wait till it's finished), I think it's a good thing they made it a bit more challenging ;)
