Current 1.22 changelist. RELEASED!

[skidz]

Will you be able to have two (or more) merchants in one map with different stocks of items? If it isn't now, then make it possible! Otherwise you won't be able to have hidden merchants and such in your maps!

Also, will you as a mapper be able to set a limited number of each item that the merchant can sell?

Yes, this is what I am working towards. It is proving is be one hell of a nasty task but I'll figure out a good way of doing it soon.
Limit on the number of weapons that can be sold probably wont make the 1.3 release though.

Couldn't it work sort of like the soundscapes?

Example:

Code: Select all

oc_bunker_merchant.txt

merchant.standard
{
weapon_pistol
weapon_ar2
item_battery
}

merchant.hidden
{
weapon_357
weapon_rpg
weapon_sniper
}

Then the npc_merchant has a stock option where you either put "merchant.standard" or "merchant.hidden", depending on which stock the merchant should have.

Scripts look like this so far.

Code: Select all

"merchant_test"
{
	"Weapons"
	{
		"weapon_357" "4"
		"weapon_ar2" "6"
		"weapon_rpg" "20"
	}
	"Items"
	{
		"item_cloak" "10"
		"item_helmet" "5"
		"item_ammo_pistol" "5"
		"item_ammo_ar2" "7"
	}
}

The number after the item is the price.

This is the hardcoded list of sellable items.

Christ , it's a xen manta ship.

And if you are stupid enough to think its a real npc , then nothing can save you.

And the word is spelt Ichthyosaur

Yeah, but to buy stuff from a merchant, won't you need money?

So you'll add a money system, of some sort?

Also: Will the merchant have his own model?

You'll buy things with points, not money. And I'm not sure if he'll have his own model.
