No nice things. Ever. That's the rules, have you forgotten?

That was of course what I was implying.

Just making sure you are keeping in check with the regulations and laws.

5 slots still seems unnecessarily limited

Does it really matter that much? Is having to have two or more stands that encumbering?

It makes browsing stands more cumbersome for the browsers. If a person were to have a complex stall setup going, 20-30 items wouldn't be unheard of. Needing to stock 6 different stands, browsers needing to look at 6 different stands, this sounds like more hassle when the limitation is "contrived" in that it's just a hardcoded limit. If the UI can handle it, what is the reasoning for it?

If it's a looks thing (barter stalls displaying items), I'd love to see a way to link barter stands together so you get one big UI. But I'm not sure how feasible that is.

[sabinati]

so youre saying. I cant lock up the boxes behind walls for the trade stand?

No, I'm saying precisely that you can lock up the boxes.

the super buggy and easily avoidable claim protection system

As Granger said, if you know any bugs or exploits, you are very free to report them.

Is having a scroll bar on the UI?

Uhh how to destroy barter stands?

[maze]

do barter stands work over walls?

Nope, but I think that should be less necessary given the implementation. Since the stand holds no items, it is not theft-sensitive, and thanks to the Visitor buff, you should be able to make reasonable sure they aren't all too frivolously destroyed.

if you know...we were able to destory em

bug report~ you cant break stands...they are so ugly
they are indestructible
cape for maze

bug report~ you cant break stands

Oh, roight. Will fix, but I guess I'll wait until the next natural restart to push it.

We've been developing, and here's what's new.

Barter Stands
-----------------------

For example: I wish to trade beetroots for 3 chantrelles a piece. I place the giving hand in the container containing my beetroots, and the taking hand in an empty container. To set the cost in chantrelles, I click "Change", and click a chantrelle with the scroll cursor, then choosing chantrelles as type, rather than mushrooms. I set quantity on desired item to 3, and leave the qualities unchanged.

I selected a Honeybun and it only let me choose between Bread and Food. I want Honeybuns, not any bread type.

One thing to note is that, much as in Legacy, the stand can only accept items which have input types set for them (internal mumbo-jumbo, but loosely corresponds to items used in crafting). We are looking to fix this, but the imagined fix is more involved.
