It would need a few key features, standard in most barter based shopping.


Likely Required:

  • Limited Shop Wallet (That is remembered)
  • Limited Shop Inventory (That is remembered)
  • Some sort of UI allowing for 'selling' and 'buying' selection. (ex: Screenshot)



(Something to consider for 'content' but not exact requirements. The GUI would likely be much different)

Optional:

  • Dynamic Buy/Sell ratios (Shop pays @50%, sells @150% of MSRP based on barter skill and possibly individual relations)







A plugin that did all this would simply be adding to the default shop functionality. If the player had only cash, it would be no different. But without cash, or if the shop has a limited wallet, than barter adds an entirely new depth to buying and selling. Especially when shop keepers are limited in availability.

If anyone is willing to tackle limited inventory and shop wallet without the whole barter GUI, that would be awesome by itself. ;)

It is quite a large request.

Interesting idea I'd probably like to try, however the image example you posted is no longer showing up.

Thanks. That is the third time that's happened. Something on the forums must be in flux.


edit:


I just fixed it again. (for the fourth time in the last week or so)

so hopefully tomorrow i get to go home from the hospital i've been here for 5 days already and it's driving me mad. I miss my family like crazy but at least I get to use my own toiletries and my own clothes. My mom is coming to visit soon i can't wait to see her cause i miss her the most. :kaojoy:
Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
Do you Find Tilesetting or Looking for Tilesets/Plugins more fun? Personally I like making my tileset for my Game (Cretaceous Park TM) xD
