This is more of a "look at and maybe change" rather than a new idea... there are HUGE bugs with being able to sell items to a NPC trader and the item dropping on the floor, and then being re sold again and again and again... Seen people empty out a trader of all its money with this before... SO i'd say the code really needs looking at and screwing around with so all items stack auto in the trader and stuff?

Or when you sell something to a trader it doesnt go on the trader it just vanishes.. that could maybe fix something?

The idea of NPC traders is to make a player economy though, if the item vanishes it can't be re sold, so the trader will simply run out of cash after the server has been open for 5 mins...

True, but if he changed the fact to they have unlimited cash and dims down on gold given for an item.. again depends on how he rolls with the server, and if you want to resell it, just buy a trader, You sell a bit, it vanishes.. you buy a trader and start reselling then..

Unlimited cash would give the same problem... Get a ton of say... Seeds, and sit there with your finger on the sell button... Millions in seconds...

And what u mean with the buy a trader bit? I mean as in the town traders like Sally the Baker n stuff, not players traders

Well, he could also make certain things unsellable to a server npc.. and if your worried that people are wanting to have it set where you resell stuff buy a trader then.. doesnt mean a trader in town needs to hold 932 +5 Fire Axe's.. lol

Can simply make an item un sellable by changing its item catagory or removing that cata from the traders selling/buying cata...

Atm it is set to buy and resell,  but it only takes 20 of each item... theres just a bug that lets you abuse it sometimes...

So you add a bunch of weapons and armor and items and all server npc's are stocked with them.. when you sell somsething to them it vanishes.. you gain some money, people can buy what they need then and not get it from someone that just threw a bunch of junk on a server npc.. might as well let the reselling happen on player traders..
